I've forced the lowgfx setting with command from comment #9 and the fade in fade out animations are gone.
But I can't change the launcher icons size. The slider in control center isn't working. Also The workspace switcher can't be enabled and it disapeared from launcher. I have it enabled in regular gfx. This is the version of unity-control-center: 15.04.0+16.04.20160705-0ubuntu1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1598770 Title: Unity in low-graphics mode has animations and unneeded redraws To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1598770/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
