DISABLE-WINDOW-ANIMATIONS

This extension simply disable all window manager animations.

 * Window "slide-ins"

 * Workspace "slide-ups" and "slide-downs"

 * Maybe more (drop me a line if you register anything else :-)

However, it does NOT disable dash animations ("zoom-ins" and 

"zoom-outs" etc.)

Works with Gnome Shell 3.0-3.2 (Fedora, Ubuntu, anything...)

Author: Lukas Zapletal [_lzap_at_seznam_dot_cz_]

INSTALLATION:

Method 1: Via web browser

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/119/disable-window-animations/

Method 2: Manual

Create a folder in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions

called [email protected] and move

extension.js and metadata.json into that folder. Restart

the gnome-shell:

  # mkdir -p ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions 2>/dev/null

  # git clone git://github.com/lzap/disable-window-animations \

    ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]

Alt-F2 and "r" ENTER

For Gnome Shell 3.2 you also need to turn the extension on. The easiest 

way to do that is to install gnome-tweak-tool and go to Shell Extensions

settings screen and turn it on (the switch-"thing" must have "I" on it).

FUTURE:

Please note there is ongoing process to enable Gnome Shell to 

load GConf setting for this. This extension will be unsupported 

then. But the patch is not in the Gnome master yet, we will be

releasing new versions until it gets in the stable AND Fedora.
