SUMMARY
The animation time for switching virtual desktop is quick it's not showing any animation of switching based upon the gesture speed in the laptop's trackpad, I love KDE but this annoys me a lot it's well implemented in gnome (switching of virtual desktop's animation) 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. use 3 or 4 finger to swipe in the trackpad fast

OBSERVED RESULT
fast changing virtual desktop without any animation with trackpad gesture 

EXPECTED RESULT
A animation speed like gnome's desktop switching is great

Thank you for the feature request!

I'm not quite sure I follow what exactly you are asking for. If I four-finger swipe very slowly, the virtual desktop transition happens slowly (and I can pause in the middle). If I move my fingers more quickly, the movement happens quickly and at once.

Is this not what you see, or are you asking about something different? What is your animation speed set to (in System Settings)? Did you change the workspace switching animation (under Desktop Effects) or keep the default?

No dude it's like the animation flow, if I swipe faster the desktop sliding
animation is instant, for eg, if you see in gnome it feels like native
speed for the desktop transition but here it's not.

I still don't know what you mean, but I'm assigning it to the kwin effects component, the developers might know.
