Slow menu fadeouts  
Written by christopher_lees the 4 Nov 09 at 05:07. New
Ubuntu should be more visually-stunning, and a small idea to increase this would be to have menus and tooltips fading out very slowly - say, over 800ms. The current length of the fade-in is fine.

You could possibly have the notify-osd using the same length of fade time.

Solution #1: Set Compiz "animations" effect by default
Written by christopher_lees the 4 Nov 09 at 05:07.
Compiz allows you to do this, so it should be set up by default using the following settings:

Under Animations in CCSM, set the following lines in addition to the default first line:

Fade 800 (type=Menu | PopupMenu | DropdownMenu)
Fade 800 (type=Tooltip | Notification | Utility) & !(name=compiz) & !(title=notify-osd)
Fade 186 (type=Dialog | ModalDialog | Normal)

This means that menus, popup menus, and tooltips have a slow fade. Dialog windows have a regular-speed fade. Regular windows have whatever animation you assigned to them.

You can try this in your own Compiz if you like.
