Visibility Animation (PRIM_ANIM.Visibility)

Animate the visibility of a control

Ancestors - Animation Item (PRIM_ANIM.AnimationItem) Object (PRIM_OBJT)

Details

The Visbility animation changes the Visibility of the managed control.
 
When the animation completes the control Visible property will be the same as the Visibility specified.
 
For most requirements, the FadeIn and FadeOut methods are a simpler solution.

Example

In this example, when the button is clicked, the label fades in and out.
