Return Value

A System.Boolean value, this property determines if the changes in appearance of the graphics items associated with the Bar are animated or not. If true then the changes in appearance are animated, otherwise false and the changes are not animated. The default value is false.

Remarks

The colour of the background and foreground of the control surfaces of a Bar change, when the mouse passes over them, when depressed, or when checked etc. If Animate is false then these changes in colour are abrupt. If Animate is true then the change in colour is a smooth transition from the old colour to the new colour. Some control surfaces also display an image. This image may expand when the mouse cursor is located over the control surface. The value of the Animate property also determines if the expansion is abrupt or a smooth increase in size.
