Description how to edit transitions.ini

The file to edit is transitions.ini and is in

/usr/share/hildon-desktop/

If you use a theme that has a custom transitions.ini file, it will override the one above, so check in /opt/usr/share/themes/[name of the theme you're using]/transitions.ini, if changing the transitions.ini file in the above path doesn't work.

To enable the blurless effect you have to edit the file (I use leafpad, but any editor works)

leafpad /usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini

the last lines are special tweaks, if you want to enable blurless you have to edit it like this

blurless = 1

and for taskswitcher you can choose 1, 2 columns or the default

taskswitcher = 2

Applying the changes to transitions.ini

Some of these changes apply as soon as you save the file, while other require you to restart hildon-desktop. You can do so by running as root:

 killall hildon-desktop

This will kill the hildon-desktop process, and it will be automatically restarted with the changed settings loaded and applied. Be sure not to "killall hildon-desktop" too often in a row (like several times in one minute), or the system will restart (nothing dangerous, though - just an annoyance).
