[Fwd: F8 Nodoka Engine Animation Disabled by Default]
---BeginMessage--- Hi all, On F7 I had installed the Nodoka engine from source with animation enabled. I liked it enough to create a theme for it, given the dearth of themes available at the time. I posted it on gnome-look for those that might be interested: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Nodoka-Charcoal?content=67976 I was curious as to why, on F8, the default RPM is created with animation disabled? I confirmed this looking at the spec file for it here: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/gtk-nodoka-engine/F-8/gtk-nodoka-engine.spec?view=markup There is a note by Martin in version 0.5-2 on July 27, noting that the --enable-animation configure option was removed. Were problems identified or was this an aesthetic decision? I'd like to put forth a motion to restore the animation option, if the latter.

Re: [Fwd: F8 Nodoka Engine Animation Disabled by Default]
But why animations should be disabled? Any good reasons?
Maybe animations in GTK engines are using fancy technique?
I don't know...

Martin References: [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=248163#c2 Martin, Thanks for your reply and thanks to Rahul for FWD'ing my post here. I can appreciate Matthias' comments as he notes in the subsequent posts in this thread. Thanks for the clarification. In thinking about it, I suppose the animation is also somewhat KDE-like and thus might be an issue as well. ;-) Regards, Marc ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
