Hi @PavelVPV,
Yes this currently a limitation of the live query feature.
Which platform are you developing for?
You can read this tutorial (for Android) that explains how to use the database change listener instead of a live query to drive animations in a recycler view https://github.com/couchbaselabs/mini-hacks/blob/master/android-recycler-view-animations/README.md.
Let me know a bit more about your use case and I’ll try to help.
