[Animations] Clip to Display

[Swivelgames]

2024-12-18_17-30-42.mp4

My assumption is that this isn't really a bug, and likely a feature request. But it would be nice if certain animations could be "clipped" to a specific output.

animations = ({
	triggers = [ "open", "show" ];
	preset = "fly-in";
	direction = "left";
	duration = 0.1;
	clip = true; # or clipToOutput?
});

This might actually be the ideal default in most cases, so maybe if this is implemented, an option could be added to disable it in cases that people do in fact want the animation to occur across monitors?

animations = ({
	triggers = [ "open", "show" ];
	preset = "fly-in";
	direction = "left";
	duration = 0.1;
	noclip = true; # or disableOutputClip?
});

Configuration file

Relevant portion:

animations = ({
	triggers = [ "open", "show" ];
	preset = "fly-in";
	direction = "left";
	duration = 0.1;
}, {
	triggers = [ "close", "hide" ];
	preset = "fly-out";
	direction = "right";
	duration = 0.1;
}, {
	triggers = [ "geometry" ];
	preset = "geometry-change";
	duration = 0.1;
});

Steps of reproduction

1. Enable fly-in and fly-out animations with latest version of picom
2. Change Workspaces

Expected behavior

• Fly-in/Fly-out animation will be clipped to the display

Current Behavior

• Fly-in/Fly-out animation spans across both displays in multihead setup
