Hello,

I currently have my open/close animation set to Glide in Compiz. However, aside from normal windows like Chrome and Nautilus, the glide effect is applied to Avants animations. I would like the Avant animations to fade in and not use the glide effect. I have looked at the rules and have done a little tinkering, but I haven't found the rule that would make this work. Any help is much appreciated.

Try the window classes 'avant-window-navigator' and 'awn-applet', set animation to 'none' for both (or whatever effect you want), and remember to place these rules in a higher priority than the usual animation rules.

I am not that familiar with setting compiz rules. Should I just use the rules that are there as examples?

By all means yes.

It's not hard, I'm sure you'll understand after fiddling with them.

So after some messing around I finally realized that something was just messed up on my desktop so I copied the settings from my laptop and now things that should fade, do fade. For some reason my desktop was not behaving as it should.
