is there a way to speed up (and slow down) the ripple effect when u drop a widget into the dashboard?
Got a tip for us?

I don't think you can slow down the ripple affect.... But if you hold down the shift key while you drag a widget on the the screen it will change from the icon to the widget in slow motion.
Same goes if you hold down the shift key and hit the x/close button.
And if you hold shift while you open or close dashboard.

the shift thing is awesome!
isn't there a Terminal thing i can do in there to adjust it? i know there's terminal stuff to adjust the speed of other things like the alert messages that pop outta big windows.

There might be some terminal command to slow it down.
Im not sure what though.
It wouldn't be worth your time.
Use a screen shot utility that can capture video (like Snapz Pro), to capture a video of rippling widgets.
Then use iMovie to slow it down. Or QuickTime to scrub through each individual frame!

Well OK....sam10685 said:trust me... i have time.
You would have to somehow find out what variable the ripple speed is stored under. Then change it. I don't know what it is or how you would find out.
Or you could open a bunch of processor intensive application. That would slow the ripple down!
Just out of curiosity, why are you so desperate to slow down the ripple effect.
