(Visual Bug)Launching the App Picker and Scrolling Immediately Creates Erroneous Animation
Last modified: 2015-03-20 12:53:49 UTC
Launching the App Picker and then scrolling immediately afterwards displays an animation where apps are being cascaded but also displays the apps in a grid (so the apps are displayed twice and the cascading ones fall into the ones that are already in a grid). One way to fix this could by fading the cascading animation as soon as the user scrolls. Tested this on openSUSE Factory with GNOME 3.15.90
Created attachment 298510 [details] [review] appDisplay: Disable scrolling during animations Currently scroll events during the swarm animation will make the grid appear immediately in addition to the animating clones, and there'll be a mismatch with the icon at the target position. This badly breaks the illusion of launchers emerging from the dash and positioning themselves in a grid - as scrolling icons "mid-air" before they form a paginated grid doesn't make much sense anyway, fix this issue by ignoring scroll events for the duration of the animation.
