Description indecisiveautomator 2022-05-23 17:29:32 UTC
SUMMARY
Animations on Elisa play too fast on refresh rates above 60Hz, and speed up the higher the refresh rate. For example at 75Hz it's just a little too fast, but at 165Hz it's way too fast. This applies to several places I have tested, including "Toggle Party Mode", "Show Playlist" and the Application Menu. Specifically to the Application Menu, it appears so fast the fade-in animation is not even visible to me at 165Hz, but is on my regular 60Hz displays.

It does not alter behaviour in any way but it is a little jarring and distracting from the overall experience when the animations play too fast.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Elisa
2. Click on an element that makes an animation, such as Show Playlist or the Application Menu
3. Animation plays too fast

OBSERVED RESULT
Animations play too fast on refresh rates above 60Hz, at 165Hz it seems to be over twice as fast.


EXPECTED RESULT
Animation speed should be consistent regardless of refresh rate.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.17.9-zen1-1-zen (64bit)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0
Qt Version: 5.15.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- Also applies to 5.24.90 I believe though I have since rolled back
- Unsure if it affects any other KDE Software, Elisa is the only one I can find that produces this behaviour
Comment 1 indecisiveautomator 2022-05-23 17:31:30 UTC
Just noticed this applies to much more in Elisa than what I listed, such as the magnifying glass fade animation being too fast, and any fade transitions being too fast.
