Shows how to change the visual style of the application form with an animation.
Introduction
I wrote this code, because I'm interested in the new .NET functions which are available to change the look of the form of your application. With the region class and different background images you can easy change the look of forms and controls. I found the great Bitmap2Region class from Arild Fines in the Internet, which I must use in an application. The result is this funny walking rabbit form.
How to use this sample ?
Right click on the rabbit to get the context menu. There you can change the moving speed of the rabbit and quit the program.
Precondition
Enable the using of unsafe code for the Visual Studio .NET project.
