This article will show you How to Disable Fade Transition Effect. When it is shown or hidden, it goes in and out. You might think that this is just how things are, but there is a way to turn it off. What would be the point? Older computers that still support may not need to worry as much, and turning off effects like this or the “move to dock” window function can make things feel a bit faster.
Or maybe you don’t like how the music fades in and out. It looks nice, but you can turn off the fading with a few defaults write lines if you don’t like it. You can also choose to turn off only half of the change, either for showing or hiding Launchpad. But if for some reason you don’t like this look, you can always turn it off. Also, if you’ve had your Mac and windows for a while, visual effects like the Genie effect can slow it down a bit.
