Once I used a slightly different effect in Keynote 1: showing a
scatter plot of experimental data points, and then adding on top of
it a theoretical curve (or fit, for that matter).
This was done simply by using transitions in Keynote itself: having
the two plots (scatter plot, without and with the theoretical curve)
in two slides at exactly the same position, and using the Dissolve
transition between the slides.
I haven't used Keynote 2 much since getting it, but with its added
functionalities I imagine things could be even simpler: setting maybe
a transition for the plot object itself, without needing to use 2
different slides.
