Step 1 Make sure machine is on latest OS (macOS Sierra)
Step 2 Make sure "reduce motion" is enabled in the Accessibility
preferences.
Step 3 There is no step 3.

I think you mean "see" sick?  ;-)

Does he really switch so often that it's an issue?

No way to control that alas.  Not one to use Spaces much myself - maybe 
the solution is to work in one space?  Perhaps add a second monitor and 
put a Space on the 2nd monitor?

He's on a MBP and I don't think I've ever seen anyone with 
multi-monitors on a notebook.

It's quite common in the tech world. I've had three connected to a
MacBook Pro at work. All you need is a monitor with a cable that will
connect to the particular display-compatible port your computer has.
Thunderbolt, Display Port, or HDMI would work on recent model MacBook
Pros.

Hunh. I recently saw a web developer that had 8 or so monitors (and a 
rising/lowering desk) but he has a big old tower. Now I remember that I 
_have_ seen a notebook with 2 monitors. My daughter had an extended 
outboard on her white MB. There have been a couple times I've had 
mirrored display between a notebook and a TV but just to view videos really.

I don't think he has a monitor. His Win7 box lives on his TV.

Never used multiple monitors myself, just multiple computers.

I've used my MBP with two external monitors.

Multiple monitors are transformative.

I'll have to take your word for it until I have a machine with more than

what machine do you have? apple hasn't made a mac with only one video
port in a long time.

How old is your machine? It's been a long time since Apple made a
machine that only supported a single external monitor.

HDMI can handle more than 1 monitor.  They make HTML "hubs".  Each 
monitor will tell the Mac or PC "I'm here and my monitor # is X".

At my last gig, I had 2 monitors on my desk plus the Lenovo Laptop. And 
1 HDMI connection.

Again, just because you haven't seen it or experienced it, doesn't mean 
it doesn't exist or others haven't.  I'm beginning to think this post is 
troll bait.

"HTML 'hubs'"?!?! 
Aren't those normally called "web servers" or "web browsers"?  ;-)

Er, used to do so, but have a larger monitor now so a single.

I do multiple monitors and a docking station at work every day. Just 
because you've never seen it doesn't mean other people don't work that 
way.

That's what I love about Usenet. When you make a statement (doesn't 
matter what it is) people rush forward to tell you you're wrong. Even if 
it's only your own experience.

I didn't say other people don't work that way, just that I haven't seen 
it (before I remembered having seen it once) and I implied that my son 
is unlikely to add a monitor to a *portable* device.

your experience is very limited.

doesn't he use a desk?

plug the laptop into a second display while at the desk and then unplug
when traveling.

I haven't seen him do that so he must, says someone else on this thread.

It looks like Apple removed the option to disable it. But you might try
this instead:

Are you talking about the switch users animation? How often is he
switching users?
