Start11 Animations + Other requrest

Improved animation smoothness with higher refresh rates

Start 11 1.25 does not have working start menu animations when using WindowFX 6.12 on windows 10 21H2 19044.2865. It only uses the default slide up/down animations. Turning off animations in start 11 does not fix it.

 

Request:

  • Better support for higher refresh rate monitors. I have a 144hz monitor, all the animations are super choppy and not smooth. The only animation that is smooth is the WindowFX style wobbly windows under movement, but even that is partially broken. You barely see the window deform at all due to the higher refresh rate.
  • Possibly add support for maximize/restore down animations as windows 10+11 has some form of animations when performing those task.

Make sure to add support for higher refresh rate monitors above 60hrz. Its very noticeable on a 144hz monitor. Looking forward to that update :D
