Thanks - I thought it must be something like this.
The downside is that when you have a lot of custom painting going on, its
incredibly slow updating even if your forms set at .99
And amazingly, you can still see through it!

When you change Opacity from 1.00 to .99, the form has to switch from a
default condition of not using the Opacity setting at all to a condition
of having to calculate and use the Opacity property. A work around is to
start your Opacity at .99.

news:%2****************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... Hi everyone,
I have a simple timer which decreases the Opacity from 1.0 to 0.0 and
back again.
The problem I have is, when it changes from 1.0 to 0.99, the whole form
flickers completely before the smooth fading out. It never does it from
0.0 to 0.1, only from 1.0 to 0.99.
Anyone seen this before?
Cheers
Adam
