Hi, I'm making a form at the bottom of the screen and I want it to slide upwards so I wrote the following code:
int destinationX = (Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Width / 2) - (this.Width / 2);
int destinationY = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height - this.Height;
this.Location = new Point(destinationX, destinationY + this.Height);
while (this.Location != new Point(destinationX, destinationY))
{
this.Location = new Point(destinationX, this.Location.Y - 1);
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);
}
but the code just runs through and shows the end position without showing the form sliding in which is what I want. I've tried Refresh, DoEvents - any thoughts?
