Time for new animations?!

While almost all of the animations are a real treat, the animation of the somewhat new moveFocus is not really. I think it would make sense to use either the animations for windowsIn and windowsOut at the same time, or it's time for some new animation options. Since it's a very predictable change, from one fullscreen window to another fullscreen window, it could be somewhat easy to get fancy here. Just as examples: coverflow / page turning / old screen goes up like a curtain reveals the other... but i think even a fade over would be nicer than what it is now.

you mean windowsMove?

Also, you mean animation styles?

Please be more specific. If you mean the change between one fullscreen window and another with the movefocus dispatcher, then with the current system animating that is not possible. (fade, etc)

Sorry i meant moveFocus while fullscreen is active. And yes i'm talking about animation styles for moveFocus, for that specific case when a window is displayed fullscreen.

This issue isn't really a priority but it would be really cool to have wipe animations. So when two windows are swapped each one gets "rolled" over with the new window. This could be configurable, like two wipers originating from the middle, moving from top to bottom, right to left, et-cetera.

I think an animation where the old fullscreen window will move to the left, exposing the next fullscreenwindow moving to the right. Both are moving until they cover each one half of the screen where they reverse directions while now the new fullscreen is on top and slides until it covers the full screen (and the old fullscreen window)?

Like the psuedo virtual-desktop that fullscreen windows move to when maximized on macOS? I would like this too.
