feat: Unified Global Animation Engine & Live Configuration#78
Merged
Conversation
- Introduced a global `Anim` singleton (`src/theme/Anim.qml`) encapsulating all animation tokens (durations, easings, colors) to replace hardcoded values across the codebase. - Created `~/.config/Brain_Shell/src/user_data/animation_prefs.json` and tied it to a Quickshell `FileView` inside the `Anim` singleton, allowing users to toggle animation preferences (`slide`, `parallax`, `none`) and adjust duration speeds (`speed_multiplier`) at runtime. - Extensively refactored popup architectures (`ClockCard`, `AudioControl`, `NetworkPopup`, `Dashboard`) to utilize a single-slide engine state machine. - Integrated custom `parallax` transition behaviors leveraging synchronized `opacity` fading and slower positional displacement for inactive pages. - Resolved dynamic resizing overlap bugs in `Dashboard.qml` by unifying the tab transitions to a single, container-level `transitionProgress` mechanism instead of decoupled individual behaviors. - Eliminated `ReferenceErrors` across QML files by enforcing proper ID bindings in inline signals and fixing unresolved dependency paths. - Removed legacy `animIdx` multipliers and scattered `<Property>Animation` bindings globally.

Overview
This PR introduces a massive overhaul to the shell's animation and transition architecture. It replaces hard-coded, disconnected bindings with a centralized, efficient
Animsingleton engine, and introduces a robust live-reloading configuration system.Type of Change
Key Changes
animation_prefs.jsonand tied it to a QuickshellFileView. Modifying"style","speed_multiplier", or"curve"inside the JSON instantly updates the entire shell without needing a reboot.speed_multiplierthat dynamically scales all UI and transition speeds proportionally. Added a curatedcurveproperty to instantly change the "physics" of the shell (smooth,spring,cinematic,linear).Dashboard,AudioControl,NetworkPopup, andClockCardto eliminate the glitchyanimIdxsystem. They now use a streamlinedisCurrent/wasCurrentengine that natively supports custom transitions like Parallax opacity cross-fadingDashboard.qmlresizing visual overlap glitch. Replaced decoupled slide animations with a singular, synchronizedtransitionProgresscycle, preventing any gaps or overlaps when jumping between tabs of varying widths.ReferenceErrorsacross QML files by enforcing explicit component ID bindings inonRunningChangedblocks and fixing versionless Qt6 Quickshell imports.Testing Checklist
