            Bug ID: 456893
           Summary: need a way to disable menu animations
           Product: Haruna
           Version: 0.8.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: generic
          Assignee: georgefb...@gmail.com
          Reporter: fores...@sonic.net
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Haruna's menu bar doesn't respond to mouse movements or clicks immediately.
When I move the mouse, it takes a moment for the highlight to appear on the
item I moved to. When I click a menu item, it takes a moment for it to open.
These delays seem to be caused by waiting for animations to complete.

I find these delays and animations frustrating. They interfere with my muscle
memory for navigating menus. They cause me to second guess my mouse aim. It
feels like someone resized some of the stairs that I use to enter and leave my
home, causing me to trip whenever I use them.

They also break consistency on my desktop (since no other application does
this), and by introducing lag, they make the application feel sluggish.

I suggest making Haruna's menus consistent with the KDE desktop, or at least
offering the option to do so.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Move mouse to application menu.
2. Click a menu item.

OBSERVED RESULT

There is a delay before the hovered menu item is highlighted, and another delay
before the clicked item opens.

EXPECTED RESULT

There should be no delays. (Unless perhaps the user has configured KDE to use
some kind of global menu animations that deliberately introduce delays, but I
have not.)
