Please report any cases of particularly slow JavaScript as separate bugs (for example bug 34876 or bug 59172) and they will be looked at. If you are really very bothered by the JavaScript animations, add `$.fx.off = true;` to your common.js subpage as suggested above. (This will not have any effect on the few CSS-based animations used in some places in MediaWiki and extensions; however, these are generally less resource-intensive and can be gotten rid of by using an older browser ;).) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Fade-out animations on roll-up hide/shows such as on enhanced watchlist and hidable tables **are not an appropriate animation** to have in the first place, and this particular animation should not be used in that particular area. Those should be removed, independently of whether or not they are slow or people like them. (An appropriate animation here would be a roll-up or roll-down.) Changing the summary per Brion. Do we have a list of inappropriate animations to be killed? Should it be a separate bug? Where useful and desirable animations that remain are slow on slower machines, we should see about making sure those fall back to much more graceful behavior. I don't think there's a general need for a no animations switch, as long as the behavior is sane to begin with I suppose this bug can be closed (and the original request for another preference considered rejected/addressed) when the behaviour is sane, then. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Make the user interface react fast. If you really insist of animations, please, please make it very fast (0.2 seconds or less). When I click a link or button I don't want my computer to react like I'm not sure what to do with your click, let me think about for a moment. This feels like working on a 1980s computer. When I click my computer knows what to do in a few nanoseconds. So do it! Don't waste my time. This. People need to accept that the interface is going to require JavaScript. This is a fact of modern, interactive websites. What people should not accept is a slow, buggy interactive interface. The solution to bad interface animations is not no interactivity. It's fast, responsive interactivity used in a sparing way. In the context above, I think this bug should be closed as WONTFIX. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

And to make it worse, the animation is way to slow. Plus, I don't remember enabling anything but I still get an animated collapsing of tabs in Vector at at times. I'm on a pretty fast computer, so it doesn't bother me, but if I can imagine how such things would be a problem on slow computers. May be time to set up a 486 for testing. :P The Vector tabs have been there since 1.17 since the very first version. Also those animations would never slow down the page because they are one single animation. The problems referred to in this page are mostly about jquery.makeCollapsible (which the Vector skin itself doesn't use, because there's built-in jQuery methods for what Vector does), and all are about multi-animation sequences. e.g. when jquery.makeCollapsible initializes on a page with many collapsible tables it slows down exponentially. That is bug in jquery.makeCollapsible because during initialization it shouldn't animate, only when a user clicks a button, and when a user does it is always for 1 single animation, which is marginal and hasn't had any complaints. So the solution is to fix jquery.makeCollapsible because eventhough it may not 20 seconds on a modern computer, it still freezes the browser for like 1 or 2 seconds which is unacceptable. That bug is tracked under bug 34876 and a fix is already on its way. If there are other modules that suffer from this bug (so far only makeCollapsible was mentioned), please file new bugs for those. They can be fixed very simple in the same way: by fixing the script to not request an untracked number of animations unconditionally at the same time. Because though that is most visible on a slow computer, it is never acceptable and thus should be fixed for everyone. Animations when triggered on user action and when appropiate for the scenario are fine and (at least so far) have never been a source of actual complaints. So, taking all into account. I agree with Trevor and Brion, resolving as wontfix is the way to go for this request (user option to disable jQuery animations generally) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Hey, it did collapse with 1.17 too - why is there a need to break working stuff? Not everyone has an up to date pc with lots of processing power to waste.

The collapsible-tabs feature is independantly inside the Vector-extension and hasn't changed since a lot since 1.16. This bug was opened due to the slowness for some users with elements made collapsible by the jquery.makeCollapsible plugin. This plugin is new in 1.18 and is not used anywhere by default (except for enhanced watchlist, which is a preference option off by default). It is not used in articles by default. Wikis are however encouraged to use jquery.makeCollapsible instead of other local plugins for better localization and browser compatibility (that was the intention for the inclusion of the plugin in the first place), however if there are blocking bugs in the plugin, wikis are free to not use 'mw-collapsible' and stick with the legacy 'collapsible' that should still work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

I see no practical nor theoretical point in offering a user an option to enable or disable animations. These are things to be considered generally as part of the interface design. The last thing I wanna see happen is situations where developers need to debug scripts with animations on and off. There are way too many I want preferences preferences already, this is not going to be one of them. If animations are lagging, then the 'right' solution (in my opinion) is to not have animations in that case, the wrong solution would be to offer a way to manually disable them. users shouldn't have to care nor be aware of this. If they're working smooth and fast and not annoying, then it's okay to have them in a sudle way where possible (like with the ajax watch/unwatch notification, those would imho be jumpy/annoying without an animation). See bug 31832 for progress on fixing the lagging in the animation, making it animationless in environments where it would lag otherwise. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

If something is delayed 20 seconds for no good reason on older computers it surely is an accessibility issue. Accessibility refers to bugs that related to things that make using the site or features hard or impossible for blind and motor impaired users. A time delay does not stop the functionality being used so it's not an accessibility bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30401 --- Comment #7 from Saibo saibotr...@arcor.de 2011-10-19 23:11:10 UTC --- (In reply to comment #4) The JS from [[mw:Snippets/Toggle_animations]] helps to switch off the animations - yes. But apparently they aren't causing the biggest part of the freeze after loading my (big) watchlist. 800 edits from the last 2 days (in Commons) to take 30 seconds to collapse (after the page is loaded)... This was way faster before the update. Is there already a bug about this? Switching off the animations does indeed speed up the (un)watch notification after clicking the button. Anyway: switching off the animations should be a setting or a gadget in MediaWiki itself and not via a JS snippet. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

It may be worth adding this option to the the Appearence tab of preferences. Cool! That works! For those interested, there is now a small JavaScript snipped on [[mw:Snippets/Toggle_animations]] which adds a portlet link for toggling the animations, and saves the user preference in a cookie. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Way better then setting fx.off in a per-user gadget; this way the setting is stored on the (slow/fast) computer itself.
