fix animation settings and allow Original animation or no animation - setable from GUI. This should fix client switching when using fixed window

 | Track client locations | Determines whether the client's window position should be restored when it is activated or started |
 | Hide preview of active EVE client | Determines whether the thumbnail corresponding to the active EVE client is not displayed |
 | Minimize inactive EVE clients | Allows to auto-minimize inactive EVE clients to save CPU and GPU |
-| Minimize inactive EVE clients Animation | If Minimize Clients is set, this setting will enable windows animations (if checked) or disable if unchecked.
+| Animation Style | Use original animation style (0) or No Animation style (1). You may find Original is cleaner with fixed window mode and No Animation is cleaner with windowed mode. Especially when using minimize inactive clients.
 | Previews always on top | Determines whether EVE client thumbnails should stay on top of all other windows |
 | Hide previews when EVE client is not active | Determines whether all thumbnails should be visible only when an EVE client is active |
 | Unique layout for each EVE client | Determines whether thumbnails positions are different depending on the EVE client being active |
