Detailed Description
DERIVED CLASS FOR ANIMATED CONTROLS.
% Provides the functionality of the Windows common animation control. An animation control is a rectangular window that displays a clip in AVI (Audio Video Interleaved) format— the standard Windows video/audio format. An AVI clip is a series of bitmap frames,like a movie. Animation controls can play only simple AVI clips. Specifically,the clips to be played by an animation control must meet the following requirements: There must be exactly one video stream and it must have at least one frame. There can be at most two streams in the file (typically the other stream, if present, is an audio stream,although the animation control ignores audio information). The clip must either be uncompressed or compressed with RLE8 compression. No palette changes are allowed in the video stream. You can add the AVI clip to your application as an AVI resource,or it can accompany your application as a separate AVI file. Since your thread continues executing while the AVI clip is displayed,one common use for an animation control is to indicate system activity during a lengthy operation. For example,the Find dialog box of the Windows 95 Explorer displays a moving magnifying glass as the system searches for a file.
