Transition animations

Open Bellavene opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

I tried to find anything about it here, but all hopeless. Only some old code from 2017.

Please, could someone give a direction to me, where I can get the code or what I should change to achieve animations like in the videos from this #1257 report?

So it is a bug. But would it not be great to have this possibility built-in? Especially for presentations.

As far as I know there is no way for amethyst to support animated window transitions.

With all respect, the bug above with Chrome states otherwise itself. Bettertouchtool, hammerspoon, Pheonix etc. can animate, so should Amethyst if you wanted to :)

@ianyh Why are there window movement animations in the #1257 video? Is there any option to enable smoother window movement?

Yabai have animations

I believe you have to disable SIP to get the animations, but if someone else has a way to implement it without disabling SIP I am fine with getting a contribution.

@Bellavene I assume the poster of #1257 installed Yabai and Amethyst. So with Yabai installed, window movements in Amethyst can also have animations?

There is no reason to use both in the same time.

No, those animations were a result of an undocumented accessibility property being applied in some situations, and that collided with frame changes. I don't know how yabai does the animations, as I haven't looked.
