Is there a way to do that? My son says it makes him sea-sick. Can one switch instantly, without motion/animation? -- Malcolm

AFAIK, there's no API to disable the animation. If it's really an issue, don't use the system that way. Logout when you're done like on Linux. Or just run Ubuntu on the machine. -- DeeDee, don't press that button! DeeDee! NO! Dee... [I filter all Goggle Groups posts, so any reply may be automatically ignored]

The OP is asking about switching desktops, not users. In Sierra, you can turn off the animation by checking the "Reduce Motion" box in the Accessibility settings, Display tab. If you don't mind a third-party app, Total Spaces has an option to turn off the animation: <http://totalspaces.binaryage.com> Otherwise, I think the best you can do is use the three-finger gesture to swipe between desktops -- if you do that, the animation speed follows the swipe speed, so if you need it to go slower, swipe slower. That's obviously a bit of a productivity-killer, though.

Yeah, he's on El Cap and so doesn't have those Sierra features. That "follow the swipe speed" 'feature' is pretty ridiculous. I mean, what's the rationale? He also figured he shouldn't have to buy a utility to disable a single animation. And I agree with him. He's comparing OSX unfavourably with his Chromebook, for God's sake. Apple, you can't let things like that happen! -- Malcolm

Yes, most people _aren't_ in the minority. But I was surprised to read just how many people there are in that minority who experience sea-sickness because of motion in their visual field. > Not even Apple can fix stupid. Stupid doesn't even enter into it. They _do_ have Reduce Motion for a reason. -- Malcolm

It requires a combination of hardware and software, and a "User Hardware Upgrade" to solve that. You have a USB cable that plugs into the computer at one end and into the user's new "Brain Socket"* at the other. The software than sends through a power spike through the USB port every five minutes to make sure the user is still awake. ;-) * Patent and trademark pending.

Disable the animations and use Mission control... works great! -- There used to be such simple directions, back in the days before they invented parallel universes - Up and Down, Right and Left, Backward and Forward, Past and Future... But normal directions don't work in the multiverse, which has far too many dimensions for anyone to find their way. So new ones have to be invented so that the way can be found.

I suggested that and he said that that is also animated. Plus it takes more time. Again, he's already become accustomed to instant, non-animated transitions as with his Chromebook or Linux. I like the animations of macOS myself; I was surprised to discover that some people's neurology makes it unacceptable.

Apple made a wise decision that Unix' underpinnings had some fundamental weaknesses with root access and decided to shore them up hard in effect distancing "root" from total control of the system. I don't know if TS does require disabling SIP (too lazy too look into it), but disabling SIP for the small benefit of TS is not a good idea (IMO). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Integrity_Protection > >> Disable the animations and use Mission control... works great! > > I suggested that and he said that that is also animated.

Could be. Are there other apps that can be installed with SIP disabled and then run SIP enabled? -- She hummed to herself because she was an unrivaled botcher of lyrics. -Nick (Gone Girl), Gillian Flynn.
