Whenever I load a page in Drupal 8 (logged in as admin), the page doesn't just load, but it slides in from the top with animation. How do I turn that off? It's way too much animation. Very distracting. I don't want any animation on my sites.

Edit: could it just be slow rendering of the admin bar? On this connection it looks like a jerky animation as the content loads -- maybe it's the steps as each part of the admin bar is loaded?

Edit: I found the problem. It's mentioned here: Toolbar implementation creates super annoying re-rendering.

That's not core Drupal, so you'll have to figure out whether it's your theme or a module causing this behavior.
Try a different theme and see if it still happens. If it does, then you need to track down the module causing the behavior. If it stops after changing themes, then you'll either need to use a different theme, or figure out how to disable that functionality in your current theme.

It's happening with all of the themes, and I haven't downloaded any modules. Drupal 8.3.3.

Core Drupal 8 does not animate or move around in any way when it loads pages.

There must be something going on elsewhere.

Core Drupal doesn't do this. What browser are you using?

I edited my original post. I think it's that the different sections of the admin bar load individually after the page loads. That creates a jerky animation effect of 3 or 4 steps as the admin bar pushes down the content. I wonder if there is an easy way to hold that area open with CSS to prevent the (unintentional) animation effect.

Ahh I see. That's not animation, that's part of the page rendering process. Your original post made it sound like the entire page was being animated inwards from the top of the browser.

That is the resulting effect. :)
