Animating Progress Bar

[Kevin]

I'm trying to make my RadProgressBar control disappear gradually by doing an animation on the Opacity Property.

I found an example of doing animation on a border of a button, but I can't seem to apply the same techniques to the Progress Bar.

Does anyone have an example of animating a RadProgressBar's properties?

Thanks much!
Kevin

Hello Kevin,

Thank you for writing.

Use the following as a guide:

1. Subscribe to the Load event of your form
2. Write the following code snippet in the load event handler

            border = (BorderPrimitive)this.radProgressBar1.ProgressBarElement.Children[3] as BorderPrimitive;
            border.Width = 5;
            border.GradientStyle = GradientStyles.Linear;
            border.ForeColor = Color.White;
            border.ForeColor2 = Color.Green;
            border.ForeColor3 = Color.Yellow;
            border.ForeColor4 = Color.Blue;
            animatedAngle.AnimationFinished += new AnimationFinishedEventHandler(animatedAngle_AnimationFinished);
            animatedAngle.ApplyValue(border);

    3.  In the AnimationFinishedHandler add the following:

       void animatedAngle_AnimationFinished(object sender, AnimationStatusEventArgs e)
       {
             animatedAngle.ApplyValue(border);
       }
