WinAnimationOpening (Function)

In french: FenAnimationOuverture

Modifies the type and duration of animations used when opening the application windows. This function applies to all the application windows, excluding the ones with specific settings (configured in the window editor or by WinAnimationNext).

Note: To configure the animation used when closing the windows, call WinAnimationClosing.

Example

// Select the animation used at opening
WinAnimationOpening(waRotationMulti, 200)
Open(WIN_AnimationTest)

// Disabling
WinAnimationOpening(waNone)

Syntax

WinAnimationOpening(<Type of animation> [, <Duration> [, <Sound>]])

<Type of animation>: Constant

Type of animation to perform.
These types are classified by category and they can be combined (except for waDefault and waRandom).
Proposed by WINDEV:
waNone No animation is proposed.
waDefault Default animation proposed by WINDEV.
This constant cannot be combined with the other constants.
waRandom A random animation is selected by WINDEV.
This constant cannot be combined with the other constants.
waVista Windows Vista animation (combination of rotation, transparency and relocation).
Morphing:
waCircularFadeIn The window is displayed inside a disk whose size increases.
waTopFilling The window fills from the top to the bottom.
waInterleave The four corners of the window merge while inter-penetrating.
waFountain The window appears bit by bit, as if coming out of a fountain.
waBook The plane of the window is displayed on a book that opens.
waMorphCylinder The plane of the window is displayed on a cylinder that slowly changes into a plane.
waMorphSphere The plane of the window is displayed on a sphere that slowly changes into a plane.
waMorphWave The plane window is displayed on waves that fade away.
Rotation:
waRotationMulti The window rotates around all axes.
waRotationX The window quickly rotates around the X axis.
waRotationY The window slowly rotates around the Y axis.
waZigZag Zig zag effect.
Transparency:
waTransparent1 The window transparency changes from 30 % to 80 %.
waTransparent2 The window transparency changes from 0% to 100%.
waTransparentFixed The transparency remains the same (50%) during the animation.
Zoom:
waZoom Zoom from the click position to the final position (straight line and constant speed).

<Duration>: Optional integer or optional Duration

Duration of animation (in hundredths of a second). This parameter can correspond to:
an integer corresponding to the number of hundredths of a second,
a Duration variable,
Versions 23 and later
the direct indication of duration (1 s or 10 ms for example).
New in version 23
the direct indication of duration (1 s or 10 ms for example).
the direct indication of duration (1 s or 10 ms for example).

<Sound>: Optional character string (with quotes)

Name of WAV file that will be played during the animation.

Remarks

Animation at opening

The animations performed during the opening are non-locking animations: the initialization codes can be run in parallel.
The animation is performed when the window becomes visible for the first time. You have the ability to use WinAnimationNext in the initialization code of global variables followed by:

MySelf..Visible = True

Various

If a new window is opened during the animation, WINDEV waits for the end of the animation before opening this new window.
The animation is not applied to the system windows (windows opened by fSelect, YesNo, ...).
WinAnimationNext has priority over WinAnimationOpening.
