+feature: changing slide side animation
+start-date: 2024-06-16
+author: Ciflire

+
+# Summary
+
+Trying to normalize the side parameter given to animation
+
+# Motivation
+
+I felt like the animation side is not consistent. To give an example I will be
+using my configuration file:
+
+```
+animation=windowsIn, 1,2,windowIn, slide bottom
+animation=windowsOut,1,2,windowOut, slide bottom
+```
+
+These two animation have the same side given, but one gives an animation that
+slides **from** bottom **to** the center and the other gives an animation that
+slides **from** center **to** bottom
+
+This bothered me, so I decided i would make an RFC to get feedback on that, to
+know if I am the only thinking that or not as I could get no feedback in the
+discord.
+
+# Detailed design
+
+The other conception of it would be to think of a vector which to me feels more
+intuitive when thinking of animation, and movement. Instead of thinking of a
+fixed size.
+
+# Examples and Interactions
+
+The previous configuration would be rewritten into
+
+```
+animation=windowsIn, 1,2,windowIn, slide top
+animation=windowsOut,1,2,windowOut, slide bottom
+```
+
+Where `top` and `bottom` give the direction of the window when going in or out.
+
+# Drawbacks
+
+People would have to change this in their entire config, could also be
+counterintuitive to other people just as the way it is designed today is
+counterintuitive to me
+Having to change the actual implementation
+
+# Alternatives
+
+Keeping the way it is
+
+# Prior art
+
+This is already impleted
+
+# Unresolved questions
+
+Still no community feedback so I use this dedicated space to have some
+
+# Future work
+
+Feel free to criticize it, sorry for my English as well i'm not native, also
+first time doing an RFC
