Every time i select a feature or edit or split a feature the selection appears to slowly pulse (or fade in/out out/in) which is a new animated visual effect in Pro. The pulse effect takes way too long bordering on annoying which is especially cumbersome when splitting a feature to many parts as every part slowly pulses after the split operation completes. 

There are a lot of such animated pulse and fade effects throughout the application. I would much rather see mu results instantly presented on the display.  

Consequently, it makes the whole experience of using ArcGIS PRO, which is already much slower than the legacy ArcMap in almost every respect, even slower.  The whole editing experience feels slugish and non-responsive. 

It would be great if we could TURN ALL such animated effects off globally in settings.

I've added my kudos - this has bugged me for years but you know - with GIS, patience is a virtue....  my virtue just ran out.

I just installed ArcGIS Pro 3.5.0 this morning and in the Project Options->User Interface tab, there is a check box for "Use animated flashing effects for interactive tools" that you can turn off.  It's on by default.  Hope this helps!

Option included in ArcGIS Pro 3.5.

Project > Options > User Interface (tab) > checkbox for "Use animated flashing effects for interactive tools".  Ensure it is unchecked to avoid animated effects.

Thanks for submitting and voting for this issue!
