Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

Click anything from the left menu on the settings page, and as the blue bar is animating to what you selected, click on something else. Notice that instead of stopping the current animation and interpolating from the current position to the new position, it just jumps directly to the new position without any animation.

Expected Behavior

It should be stopping the current animation, and interpolating from the current position that it stopped at to the new position to give a smooth animation.

Actual Behavior

Notice that instead of stopping the current animation and interpolating from the current position to the new position, it just jumps directly to the new position without any animation.

@zadjii-msft I've found a separate problem with that blue bar animation when deleting a profile. I don't know if this needs to be in a new issue or not (I think it's a separate issue though), but here it is:

When you click to delete a profile, the blue bar jumps far above where it's supposed to be, and then starts animating downward. This is potentially because when it calculated where it should begin, it still thought the menu item for the profile that was deleted was still there, idk.

Okay, that does look like a separate issue. Mind copy-pasting that into a new issue so we can track that separately? Thanks!
