+ * ### Flickering when using ngShow to toggle between elements
+ *
+ * When using {@link ngShow} and / or {@link ngHide} to toggle between elements, it can
+ * happen that both the element to show and the element to hide are visible for a very short time.
+ *
+ * This usually happens when the {@link ngAnimate ngAnimate module} is included, but no actual animations
+ * are defined for {@link ngShow} / {@link ngHide}. Internet Explorer is affected more often than
+ * other browsers.
+ *
+ * There are several way to mitigate this problem:
+ *
+ * - {@link guide/animations#how-to-selectively-enable-disable-and-skip-animations Disable animations on the affected elements}.
+ * - Use {@link ngIf} or {@link ngSwitch} instead of {@link ngShow} / {@link ngHide}.
+ * - Use the special CSS selector `ng-hide.ng-hide-animate` to set `{display: none}` or similar on the affected elements.
+ * - Use `ng-class="{'ng-hide': expression}` instead of instead of {@link ngShow} / {@link ngHide}.
+ * - Define an animation on the affected elements.
