+ Inheritance diagram for wxAnimation:

Detailed Description

This class encapsulates the concept of a platform-dependent animation.

An animation is a sequence of frames of the same size. Sound is not supported by wxAnimation.

Note that on wxGTK wxAnimation is capable of loading the formats supported by the internally-used gdk-pixbuf library (typically this means only wxANIMATION_TYPE_GIF). On other platforms wxAnimation is always capable of loading both GIF and ANI formats (i.e. both wxANIMATION_TYPE_GIF and wxANIMATION_TYPE_ANI).

Library:  wxAdvanced
Category:  Graphics Device Interface (GDI)

Predefined objects/pointers: wxNullAnimation

Member Function Documentation

virtual int wxAnimation::GetDelay ( unsigned int  i) const
virtual

Returns the delay for the i-th frame in milliseconds.

If -1 is returned the frame is to be displayed forever.

virtual wxImage wxAnimation::GetFrame ( unsigned int  i) const
virtual

Returns the i-th frame as a wxImage.

This method is not implemented in the native wxGTK implementation of this class and always returns an invalid image there.

virtual unsigned int wxAnimation::GetFrameCount ( ) const
virtual

Returns the number of frames for this animation.

This method is not implemented in the native wxGTK implementation of this class and always returns 0 there.

virtual wxSize wxAnimation::GetSize ( ) const
virtual

Returns the size of the animation.

virtual bool wxAnimation::IsOk ( ) const
virtual

Returns true if animation data is present.

virtual bool wxAnimation::Load ( wxInputStream stream,
wxAnimationType  type = wxANIMATION_TYPE_ANY 
)
virtual

Loads an animation from the given stream.

Parameters
streamThe stream to use to load the animation. Under wxGTK may be any kind of stream; under other platforms this must be a seekable stream.
typeOne of the wxAnimationType enumeration values.
Returns
true if the operation succeeded, false otherwise.
virtual bool wxAnimation::LoadFile ( const wxString name,
wxAnimationType  type = wxANIMATION_TYPE_ANY 
)
virtual

Loads an animation from a file.

Parameters
nameA filename.
typeOne of the wxAnimationType values; wxANIMATION_TYPE_ANY means that the function should try to autodetect the filetype.
Returns
true if the operation succeeded, false otherwise.
wxAnimation& wxAnimation::operator= ( const wxAnimation brush)

Assignment operator, using reference counting.
