Looking for code to fade a form in, quickly and smoothly. I was going to
use a simple loop and SetLayeredWindowAttributes(). But, I use D2005. So,
I decided to simply use the forms AlphaBlendValue. It works, but it's not
smooth looking,
for i := fmMain.AlphaBlendValue to 175 do
begin
fmMain.AlphaBlendValue := i;
end;
A good example of what I'm after would be the fade effect you get activating
the dashboard, on a Mac system.
