A simple task – get a “loading” animation when you click a button on a winform
My solution (works!)
1) in your form designer, you need a panel!!!! this is what will be used to draw the loading bitmap
2) in your form constructor you need something like this
<title>Snippet</title><pre style="font-family: consolas;"> <span style="color: blue;">public</span> TestForm() { InitializeComponent(); <span style="color: green;">//Enable double buffering to reduce flicker.</span> <span style="color: blue;">this</span>.SetStyle(<span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">ControlStyles</span>.OptimizedDoubleBuffer, <span style="color: blue;">true</span>); <span style="color: green;">//Enable paint via message to reduce flicker. </span> <span style="color: blue;">this</span>.SetStyle(<span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">ControlStyles</span>.AllPaintingInWmPaint, <span style="color: blue;">true</span>); }
3) In your button click event you need something like this
<span style="color: blue;">private</span> <span style="color: blue;">void</span> btnClickMe_Click(<span style="color: blue;">object</span> sender, <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">EventArgs</span> e)<br /> {<br /> InitAnimation();<br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Thread</span> backgroundThread = <span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Thread</span>(<span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">ThreadStart</span>(AnimateImage));<br /> backgroundThread.Start();<br /> <br /> //Do something grand here!<br /> <br /> backgroundThread.Abort();<br /> ClearAnimation();<br /> }<br /><br />4) helper stuff, that does the animation work ...<br /><br /><title>Snippet</title><pre style="font-family: consolas;"><span style="color: blue;"> #region</span> Animation<br /> <br /> <span style="color: blue;">void</span> InitAnimation()<br /> {<br /> panel1.Visible = <span style="color: blue;">true</span>; // this is your panel added in step 1<br /> }<br /> <br /> <br /> <span style="color: blue;">void</span> AnimateImage()<br /> {<br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Stream</span> strImage = <span style="color: blue;">this</span>.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(<span style="color: rgb(163, 21, 21);">"WindowsApplication1.Images.loadingAnimation.gif"</span>); // its up to u to figure out the resource name, <br /> //else use an absolute file path in the new Bitmap constructor, see line below<br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Bitmap</span> animatedImage = <span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Bitmap</span>(strImage); <span style="color: green;">//new Bitmap(@"C:\Images\loadingAnimation.gif");</span><br /><br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Graphics</span> gfx = panel1.CreateGraphics();<br /> gfx.DrawImage(animatedImage, <span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Point</span>(0, 0));<br /> <br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">ImageAnimator</span>.Animate(animatedImage, <span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">EventHandler</span>(<span style="color: blue;">this</span>.OnFrameChanged));<br /> <br /> <span style="color: blue;">while</span> (<span style="color: blue;">true</span>)<br /> {<br /> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">ImageAnimator</span>.UpdateFrames();<br /> gfx.DrawImage(animatedImage, <span style="color: blue;">new</span> <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">Point</span>(0, 0));<br /> }<br /> }<br /> <br /> <span style="color: blue;">private</span> <span style="color: blue;">void</span> OnFrameChanged(<span style="color: blue;">object</span> o, <span style="color: rgb(43, 145, 175);">EventArgs</span> e)<br /> {<br /> <span style="color: green;">//Force a call to the Paint event handler.</span><br /> <span style="color: blue;">this</span>.Invalidate();<br /> }<br /> <br /> <span style="color: blue;">void</span> ClearAnimation()<br /> {<br /> panel1.Visible = <span style="color: blue;">false</span>;<br /> }<br /> <br /><span style="color: blue;"> #endregion</span>
