Mint 13 & MATE 1.4 How to disable minimizing effect [SOLVED]
I use Mint 13 maya with MATE 1.4 (backported recently). Everything runs well, but I want to disable that minimizing effect that appears when we are minimizing a window (that effect with the frame line of the window that shrinks down at the open window in taskbar). Is there a way ? I haven't done any other configuration, MATE 1.4 works as is by default.

Hi! Have you find a way? I just installed MATE and I' m really liking it, but I want to disable that effect as well, I just can' t find the way.

Try this:
1) install gconf-editor
2) run gconf-editor in terminal
3) navigate to /apps/panel/global
4) uncheck "enable_animations"
Let me know if it works.

Re: Mint 13 with MATE 1.4. How to disable minimizing effect
Done some investigating try Preferences>Desktop Settings click on Windows check "Don't show window content while dragging". It worked for me.
***EDIT****
Above does remove windows animations but produces another animation whem moing windows around; it's not a fix. The fix is to use the configuartion editor.
Menu >System Tools> Configuration Editor***>
or
alt F2 type in mateconf-editor
then click desktop> mate> interface uncheck enable_animations.
That should work it works on my system LM 13 MATE.
***No need to install gconf editor as Mate comes with the mateconf-editor.
