VB 08 Form Fade

•VB 08 Form Fade Video•

This is a video I made some time ago (Using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express edition)

showing "HOW I MADE" a Visual Basic Form fade in & out.

Thank you for watching!

I will try to post a sample code soon.

I've since updated to Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express Edition.

Upon checking the latest version is Visual Studio Express 2013

Public Class Form1
    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        
            ProgressBar1.Increment(+10)
        'The higher the increment the faster it will change/fade
        'my increment is set to 10 so each time it changes
        'my opacity level changes to the corrisponding value
        If ProgressBar1.Value = 100 Then
            Me.Opacity = 1
            ProgressBar1.Value = 0
            'reset the progress bar to zero
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 90 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.9
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 80 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.8
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 70 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.7
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 60 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.6
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 50 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.5
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 40 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.6
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 30 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.7
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 20 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.8
        ElseIf ProgressBar1.Value = 10 Then
            Me.Opacity = 0.9
        End If
    End Sub
    Private Sub Label1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label1.Click
        'click this label to toggle the fade on -OR- Off
        If Timer1.Enabled = True Then
            Label1.Text = "Form fade is Off"
            Timer1.Stop()
        ElseIf Timer1.Enabled = False Then
            Label1.Text = "Form fade is On"
            Timer1.Start()
        End If
    End Sub
End Class
