I usually dislike piling in on Apple's UI blunders, but in this case I'm compelled to agree :-p I honestly thought that in the post-Steve-Jobs era we at least wouldn't get these pointless gee-wow visual effects anymore; he was always very susceptible to them. Apparently someone there saw GPU cycles going unused and decided they needed to find a new excuse to push some pixels around. Scrolling performance in source-list views (i.e. Xcode, Mail) is total sh*t in Yosemite, even on my relatively new MBP, and I blame "vibrancy" for it. With the insane GPUs we have nowadays, there's no excuse for a simple outline view not to glide up and down at 30fps or more. I guess the best we can do as developers is to vote with our feet by not adopting it in our apps. (I haven't had to deal with an OS X source list in a while; I assume "vibrancy" has to be opted into? Or at least there's a way to opt out?) —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
