BTT just has action to move between spaces / fullscreen apps that you can execute via any BTT trigger. It however doesn't remove the animation for system triggered switching.
This is my application switching solution. I hope it can give you some inspiration.。
Do you know when SetApp will get this beta version? (it's currently showing Beta Version 5.444)
Also, is this new faster space switching able to be triggered by trackpad gesture or mouse drawing?
Hi, can confirm. I also faced the same bug when using 2 monitors, its inconvenient having to focus the screen first before being able to switch, but overall, the animationless desktop switch is one of the greatest additions to humanity, Thank you Andreas for your hard work 
can we try this?
@Andreas_Hegenberg can we do the same with switch to desktop?
can you please share your configuration
I am trying to achieve the same
FlashSpace might work for some use cases. (I’m neither a user nor the developer; I just happened to see this and wanted to offer a potential solution.)

could you check with the latest alpha? I added some code that might be some to switch focus to the mouse monitor before triggering the space switch
Thanks, will look it out.
Was wondering if it is possible using BTT?
As I said, I don't personally use it, so you might have to figure that out for yourself. 
Is there a way to add the "(without animation)" in the "switch to desktop 1", "switch to desktop 2" options?
I'd love it, it'd be an amazing game changer. I am considering buying BTT just for this.

Hello, I'm using BTT 5.569, latest alpha as of writing,
I have 2 screens, I have included a video of the second screen when the first screen (Not shown in the video) is focused, This is the behavior that I get.
I still have to focus the window first as shown in the video (at 00:05) then I am able to switch spaces 
. So I am afraid it still doesn't switch focus.
(The keyboard shortcut Hyper+W, Moves right a Space, and Hyper+Q Moves left a space)
Thanks!
Outstanding 
There’s a bug when moving Spaces (Without Animation) when in Mission Control view.
Basically, when I activate Mission Control (shows all Spaces for each monitor) everything goes nuts, and won’t move to any spaces to the left or right.
I would also LOVE this feature! I switch to specific spaces constantly, and doing so without animation would be so nice.
I AM BRAND NEW to BTT as of this week (on day 6 of the trial) and I’m having trouble finding tutorials to get me up to speed on basic concepts and methods.
IN THIS THREAD, which intrigues me, I am having trouble figuring out how to activate the system/method/macro/trigger/function (whatever this should be called) to test it. It’s supposed to be available in the the version I have, having been added in 5.48 and I have 5.6. So how do I take advantage of it or test it? What do I download? Where do I look for it in menus? Or do I build my own folliowing the uploaded images?
SEE? I’m missing so many contextual assumptions.
I particularly want to try this technique/method/macro/thingy out because I use multiple desktops contantly. I currently have 45 desktops, of which 39 have names and hotkeys and 6 are avaialble for “future expansion”. (Common “wisdom” is that there is a limit of 16 desktops, which is not true.) The hotkeys and other management fuctions are implemented in Keyboard Maestro, using a system of my own devising (most of which I’ve discussed in various threads in the KBM Forum) that has been about two years in sporadic development and been stable in daily constant use for over a year. I would like to take a look at this animationless switching to see if it can simply be added on top of what I have now or if I would have to re-implement my desktop switching in BTT.
Can someone give me an outline of the concepts that I will have to explore and learn about to get off the ground here to simply be able to test what is being discussed? Where are the BTT Introductory Tutorials? I have found the Tutorials category in the Forum here, but all that I’ve looked at so far start in the middle, as far as I’m concerned. They explain techniques to the already-initiated, but I haven’t found any that start at The Beginning.
Thanks.
I found this, which is getting me started, but it’s a reply to a question that isn’t an obvious starting point. IMHO this kind of stuff should be in it’s own “Start Here” thread or page:
Have a look at the documentation: https://docs.folivora.ai
The animationless desktop switch is great. Is it possible to have the same functionality also for the window switcher when the window is in another space (apple lingo for desktop)?
Currently, when I use the window switcher to go to a different full screen window there are three problems, which might be related to problems discussed for animationless desktop switching for full screen apps.
- BTT switches individually over all spaces as if I would manually click through all of them until it reaches the destination.
- Sometimes, it does not work for whatever reason and this switching stops too early or too late in any other space, or it just jumps back to the space from where I initiated the window switch.
- It would be nice if one could avoid the OS animation and use the new animation less transition.
1 and 2 seem to be issues only if the target window is a full screen window.
I noticed the following in a different context: If a window is actually displaying a document that exists in the file system, one can call open -a <application> <file>. This transitions to the correct space with only one normal OS animation. It’s probably too restrictive for a general BTT approach, since some windows like browsers are not associated with a file. But it lets me hope, that there is some OS functionality, which lets you do an immediate switch to the correct window.
I hope it is okay, that I post it in this thread.
