[Sugar-devel] [PATCH v2] Reduction in the time taken for loading of the menu (SL#1169)

[shanjit at seeta.in]

From: Shanjit Singh Jajmann <shanjit at seeta.in>

Reduction in the lead time for loading the drop down menus. Changes made in the time delay for rendering of the secondary palette to improve human computer interaction and experience.

v1 -> v2 : Since the time 0.0, was too short for comfortable viewing, arguments have been modified suitably to bring in a smooth pop-up and pop-down feature. Suggestions taken from SL#2367.
