ISNet.WebUI.WebDesktop Namespace > WebDesktopManager Class : ShadowModeAnimation Property


Glossary Item Box

When WindowInteractiveMode is set to Shadow and ShadowMode Transparency is True. This property specifies whether the transparent shadow should be animated.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Property ShadowModeAnimation As Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As WebDesktopManager
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.ShadowModeAnimation = value
 
value = instance.ShadowModeAnimation
C# 
public bool ShadowModeAnimation {get; set;}

Remarks

To change the interactivity mode to Shadow, simply set the WindowInteractiveMode to Shadow in the WebDesktopManager instance.

There are two new properties related to this feature:

  1. ShadowModeAnimation
    The default value is false. This property allows you to add nice fading effect when the moving and resizing is performed in Shadow mode. However, the animation effect is not suitable for complex Web application as it could slow down the screen rendering while performing interaction.
  2. ShadowModeTransparency
    By default, the desktop manager screen would be 100% transparent when the moving and resizing is performed in Shadow mode. When this property is set to true, the background of desktop manager will be dimmed to 50% transparent to give user better focus on the interactive operation. The above screenshot shows the ShadowModeTransparency enabled.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
