Hello. To add animation to your project: You can use Storyboards in WPF(I think this is the best way) Use Timer and receive Tick event The following example simply animate rectangle moving. public partial class Form1 : Form { Graphics g; //Declare timer var private Timer timer1; //dx & dy are amount of offset int dx = 0; int dy = 0; public Form1() { InitializeComponent(); //Add new timer timer1 = new Timer(this.components); //Add timer event timer1.Tick += new EventHandler(timer1_Tick); //Interval between ticks 200 ms (Actually it is speed of your animation) timer1.Interval = 200; timer1.Enabled = true; } private void timer1_Tick(object sender EventArgs e) { g = CreateGraphics(); g.Clear(this.BackColor); //Each timers tick you increase offset amount dx++; dy++; Pen pen = Pens.Brown; Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(50 + dx 50 + dy 50 50); g.DrawRectangle(pen rect); } }
