mangowm supports animations for both standard windows and layer shell surfaces (like bars and notifications).

animations=1
layer_animations=1

You can define different animation styles for opening and closing windows and layer surfaces.

Available types: slide, zoom, fade, none.

animation_type_open=zoom
animation_type_close=slide
layer_animation_type_open=slide
layer_animation_type_close=slide

Control the fade-in and fade-out effects for animations.

animation_fade_in=1
animation_fade_out=1
fadein_begin_opacity=0.5
fadeout_begin_opacity=0.5

• animation_fade_in — Enable fade-in effect (0: disable, 1: enable)
• animation_fade_out — Enable fade-out effect (0: disable, 1: enable)
• fadein_begin_opacity — Starting opacity for fade-in animations (0.0–1.0)
• fadeout_begin_opacity — Starting opacity for fade-out animations (0.0–1.0)

Adjust the zoom ratios for zoom animations.

zoom_initial_ratio=0.4
zoom_end_ratio=0.8

• zoom_initial_ratio — Initial zoom ratio
• zoom_end_ratio — End zoom ratio

Control the speed of animations (in milliseconds).

animation_duration_move=500
animation_duration_open=400
animation_duration_tag=300
animation_duration_close=300
animation_duration_focus=0

Bezier curves determine the "feel" of an animation (e.g., linear vs. bouncy). The format is x1,y1,x2,y2.

You can visualize and generate curve values using online tools like cssportal.com or easings.net.

animation_curve_open=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_move=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_tag=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_close=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_focus=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_opafadein=0.46,1.0,0.29,0.99
animation_curve_opafadeout=0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5

Control the direction of tag switch animations.
