[Visual] Card stack transition

Open lightonflux opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

In coverflow mode the windows are distorted because of perspective. For some applications this looks very weird. (e.g. video, photo editing with faces).

A third transition effect would be nice. One that is also symmetric like coverflow (unlike timeline) and non-distorting.

What comes to mind is a stack of cards, similar to what Android 5 and 6 has. Vertically would be nice to see the application title, but with new apps that have headerbars the titlebar is not as important. So a horizontal deck of cards, would use the widescreen computer screens better and still show enough of a window to make it easily identifiable by its content.
