The AnimateWindow function enables you to produce special effects when showing or hiding windows. There are two types of animation: roll animation and slide animation.
BOOL AnimateWindow(
HWND hwnd, |
// handle to the window to animate |
DWORD dwTime, |
// duration of animation |
DWORD dwFlags |
// animation type |
); |
Flag |
Description |
AW_SLIDE |
Uses slide animation. By default, roll animation is used. This flag is ignored when used with the AW_CENTER flag. |
AW_ACTIVATE |
Activates the window. Do not use this flag with AW_HIDE. |
AW_HIDE |
Hides the window. By default, the window is shown. |
AW_CENTER |
Makes the window appear to collapse inward if the AW_HIDE flag is used or expand outward if the AW_HIDE flag is not used. |
AW_HOR_POSITIVE |
Animate the window from left to right. This flag can be used with roll or slide animation. It is ignored when used with the AW_CENTER flag. |
AW_HOR_NEGATIVE |
Animate the window from right to left. This flag can be used with roll or slide animation. It is ignored when used with the AW_CENTER flag. |
AW_VER_POSITIVE |
Animate the window from top to bottom. This flag can be used with roll or slide animation. It is ignored when used with the AW_CENTER flag. |
AW_VER_NEGATIVE |
Animate the window from bottom to top. This flag can be used with roll or slide animation. It is ignored when used with the AW_CENTER flag. |
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. The function will fail in the following situations:
To get extended error information, call the GetLastError function.
You can combine the AW_HOR_POSITIVE or AW_HOR_NEGATIVE flag with the AW_VER_POSITIVE or AW_VER_NEGATIVE flag to animate a window diagonally.
The window procedures for the window and its child windows may need to handle any WM_PRINT or WM_PRINTCLIENT messages. Dialog boxes, controls, and common controls already handle WM_PRINTCLIENT. The default window procedure already handles WM_PRINT.
