Bug ID: 489306
Summary: Turning off Virtual Desktop switching animations does
not affect Overview
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-overview
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: ja...@jamesnorth.net
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I turn off "Show animation when switching" in the Virtual Desktop
settings, I can now instantly switch desktops. But when I hit SUPER+W to bring
up the overview effect and switch desktops, it still slides. I like most
animations in KDE but this transition is jarring whether it's slide or fade, so
I only turn this animation off.
It would be nice if switching desktops was instantaneous in the Overview effect
too.
* For "Fade Desktop, see macOS Mission Control with Reduce Motion on for prior
art.
* For it being disabled, see GNOME's Overview with Reduce Animations for prior
art.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to Virtual Desktops and turn off Show animation when switching
2. Use the Overview effect and switch desktops
OBSERVED RESULT
The sliding animation still occurs.
EXPECTED RESULT
The switch should be instantaneous
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.9.6
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It'd be good if the Fade Desktop effect also reflected in the Overview for
people who use that :)
