All I want is to turn off that distracting NSOutline expand/collapse animation all the time, everywhere. So useless and certainly distracting. Certainly doesn't make my UI any faster or enhance my user experience.
If anyone knows how, I'll gladly mail them 50 bucks. Is there an NSUserDefaults setting, or some proxy to kill the collapse/expand roll out/rollup animation? Cheers.
