I was trying to get the animation function working but have been
unsuccessful. One animation I have worked on is in the wrong colour and
offset in the display.
Does anyone know which formats are supported by the Win32::GUI::Animation
package?
The Win32::GUI::Animation package wraps the Win32 Animation control.
Overview at (sorry if the URL wraps - blame Microsoft for such long URLs):
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/animation/animationoverview.asp
From that page:
- Animation controls can only display AVI clips that do not contain audio
- An animation control can display an AVI clip originating from either
an uncompressed AVI file or from an AVI file that was compressed using
run-length (BI_RLE8) encoding.
From my understanding animation controls are designed to allow moving
graphics (such as the bit of paper moving from folder to folder when you
do a copy operation), and not for displaying movie clips.
