if only we could find a way around the blur problem. because setting the blur behind dropdown menus to zero (radius) makes them silky smoothe too, as well as app launching and task swithchin. without blur anywhere pretty much all effects are as smoothe as can be.

huh? its rendering the animations with more frames, ergo it stresses the cpu more than it did before. at least thats my thought oO

or am i missing something?

more frames = less strain?

It removes the blur.

but it still makes the icons look ugly on bright background, does it?

/edit: i totally misunderstood this mod. i thought the framerate of the transitions is set/locked and you increase it directly. i didnt realize that removing the blur achieves this as well.

its not a case of it having more frames, the blur is using up too many resources so the frame rate drops and the animation struggles to work as it should. with better written code the animations could be competely seemless, the framerate is not set, it just drops the harder the system has to work know what i mean

Mine doesn't remove the blur. Ideally the blur would be replaced with a dim, which doesn't/shouldn't require a lot of resources.

we need to be able to set the background brightness lower,
brightness in the ini is only for radius_more, when set to zero brightness has no effect.
home from work now anyway, gonna install sdk and take a butchers, see how much of a quick learner i can be lol

hildon-desktop needs to be modified to edit (or remove) the effects, transitions.ini won't help you here
A typical C book is about 900 pages or so, I stopped at page 50 on mine
