You need to get right into the settings for each action, ie close/minimise etc and set it there.

When you click into animations, you should have tabs for open/close/minimise and a few others. The window underneath shows the duration time, effect etc. Just click the line which should read something like

Code: Select all

((type=Normal | Unknown) | name=sun-awt-X11-XFramePeer | name=sun-awt-X11-XDialogPeer) & !(role=toolTipTip | role=qtooltip_label) & !(type=Normal & override_redirect=1) & !(name=gnome-screensaver)
then the new/edit buttons should light up. Click on edit and a new window will appear, choose your effect from the dropdown menu and close. Your effect should work now.
