Workspaces are going to slide in and out of the monitor when they are switched, and that is its own kind of animation (workspace) next to moving and transparency: it is turned on, and given a duration and an easing, the same way (animation.enabled, duration and style take a workspace entry, as do komorebic animation, animation-duration and animation-style with --animation-type workspace), with the duration and the easing of the other animations when it has none of its own. Animations being enabled for everything enables it too, and it can be turned off in particular (animation.enabled with workspace set to false), so that enabled: true keeps meaning everything. It needs ghost movement, as the windows slide as ghosts. Nothing uses it yet.

Animations
If you would like to add window movement animations, ensure the following options are
defined in the komorebi.json configuration file.
{
"animation": {
"enabled": true,
"duration": 250,
"fps": 60,
"style": "EaseOutSine"
}
}
Window movement animations only apply to actions taking place within the same monitor workspace.
You can optionally set a custom duration in ms with animation.duration (default: 250),
a custom style with animation.style (default: Linear), and a custom FPS value with
animation.fps (default: 60).
It is important to note that higher fps and a longer duration settings will result
in increased CPU usage.
This feature is not considered stable, and you may encounter visual artifacts from time to time.
Workspace transitions
Workspaces can slide in and out of the monitor when you switch between them: the
windows of the workspace you leave slide out of the monitor, and the windows of the
workspace you switch to slide in from the other side, from the right when you go to
a workspace with a higher index (or move right across the edge of a workspace when
cross_boundary_behaviour is Workspace) and from the left when you go to one with
a lower index (or move left).
It is on when animations are enabled for everything ("enabled": true) and ghost
movement is on, and can be turned off in particular with its own animation kind. It
can also be turned on by itself, without the other kinds:
{
"animation": {
"enabled": {
"movement": true,
"workspace": true
},
"ghost_movement": true,
"duration": {
"movement": 250,
"workspace": 350
},
"style": {
"movement": "EaseOutSine",
"workspace": "EaseOutExpo"
}
}
}
To turn it off and keep the rest:
{
"animation": {
"enabled": true,
"ghost_movement": true
}
}
becomes
{
"animation": {
"enabled": { "movement": true, "workspace": false },
"ghost_movement": true
}
}
Without ghost_movement workspaces switch instantly, as they do without this setting.
The windows never leave the monitor they are on, so no part of them is shown on a
monitor next to it.
The same can be set with komorebic animation enable --animation-type workspace,
komorebic animation-duration 350 --animation-type workspace and
komorebic animation-style --style ease-out-expo --animation-type workspace.
