Thanks for the interesting suggestion, let's see what the gnome team thinks We have it unconditionally always enabled already. What do you want to be done here? Strange, I oversaw that it is enabled always. The thing is, the flag seems not to have any effect here. Normally progress bars should be animated which they aren't in my case. Can you confirm this behavior? The configure flag enables support. The theme has to declare wanting that support. For example the default Clearlooks theme doesn't, because it says animation = FALSE in /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc So select a theme that makes use of animations. I admit I have in the past edited Clearlooks theme myself to animation = TRUE, but that is a bit dirty. Thank you very much for the explaination. Maybe when USE=animation is set, seding the gtkrc?

It's easy to write a gtkrc that includes another one and just changes the animation variable to TRUE. I think the solution should be an upstream one. Perhaps instead of TRUE and FALSE there should be one for honoring the "gtk-enable-animations"[1] global toolkit setting, or just doing that only. 1. http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings--gtk-enable-animations per comment #7 |
