Hello there HF, I am having issues with my project, I am currently stuck using a framework 3.5 due to obfuscation methods. The problem I got is I need a new way of using a await Task.Delay from my tray pop ups. for it to fade in and fade out.

Code

private PopupDesign popupDesign1;
        private Timer timer1;
        private System.ComponentModel.IContainer components;
        private Timer timer2;
        private Timer timer3;
        public static int CurrentNots = 0;
        public static void addNote() { CurrentNots++; }
        public static void remNote() { if (CurrentNots != 0) CurrentNots--; }



        private  void FadeIn(Form o, int interval = 80) {
            while (o.Opacity < 1.0) {
              
               await Task.Delay(interval);
                o.Opacity += 0.05;
            }
            o.Opacity = 1;
            await Task.Delay(2000);
            FadeOut(o, interval);
        }

        private async void FadeOut(Form o, int interval = 80) {
            while (o.Opacity > 0.0) {
               await Task.Delay(interval);
                o.Opacity -= 0.05;
            }
            o.Opacity = 0;
            remNote();
        }

        public static Rectangle getScreen(Form o) {
            return Screen.FromControl(o).Bounds;
        }

        public static int calculateLocation(Form o) {
            return (getScreen(o).Height - 40) - ((62 + 15) * CurrentNots);
        }

        public Tray(
            string title, string message,
            PopupDesign.Kind kind = PopupDesign.Kind.Comp, Image image = null) {
            InitializeComponent();

            popupDesign1.Text = title;
            popupDesign1.Description = message;
            popupDesign1.Type = kind;
            popupDesign1.Image = image;

            addNote();
            this.Location = new Point(getScreen(this).Width - Width - 20, calculateLocation(this));
            this.Opacity = 0;
            this.Show();
            FadeIn(this, 20);
        }

Could any help with this please :)

then run that from a thread itself

I already tried this and it just freeze the tool for the length I put it to sleep for but nothing pop ups or happens.

Show the code.

You're probably still sleeping the main thread, you have to execute the popup stuff on a different thread, and sleep that thread.

Easy way is pinvoke AnimateWindow, it supports fade animations. This should help get you started: https://github.com/oduslabs/TrayNotifica...nimator.cs

Not possible for it to freeze the main thread unless you're joining with the main UI thread in which case you aren't properly threading.

I guess the AnimateWindow() function would be an easy approach.

You should check Odus's project but here's an alternative delay method:

PHP Code


<?php 
private void Wait(int timeout)
{
    using (AutoResetEvent AREv = new AutoResetEvent(false))
        AREv.WaitOne(timeout, true);
}

Aside from the poor naming consistency...

You're not using this for any thread synchronization so this is really a waste. This calls Dispose() for that object to deal with things that don't even matter here... Thus this is a poor idea - instantiating a class meant for something entirely different, and then disposing of it with each function call. Thread Sleep() would have done a better job here
