Hi Alex,

no 3.0 has not a option for this. Because it is not clear *how* to
interpolate the transition of the single matrix elements? Linear ?
Quadratic ?
Suppose You have two matrixes of the *same* dimensions

m1={{1,0},{0,1}};
m2={{0,1},{1,0}};

and You want show a smooth transition from m1 at t=0 to m2 at t=1 You
can do this
simply by defining a linear transition

ip[t_]:=m1*(1.0-t)+m2*t

Now the command

ListPlot3D[#,PlotRange->{0,1}] & /@ Table[ip[t],{t,0,1,0.1}]

gives You 10 frames of the saddle surface.

Hope that helps
  Jens
