    [HELP] Small Form, Full Screen Animation.

    Hi, i am trying to make a small form, but when you click "start" 1/many balls appear and bounce around the SCREEN, not the form. so it will touch the edges of the screen, then bounce off. can anyone help me with this?

    Thanks in advanced

    Have you done anything at all or were you just hoping that someone would do it for you? If you have a specific problem then ask away. If not, come back when you do.

    My problem is, im not sure on how to get the ball to "Overlap" the form. Causing it to carry on outside the Form.

    You can separate the configuration and action processes and run the latter as a console app using the desktop as a drawing surface. Or you can run a two form app with the action running in a maximised, transparent window. Or you can parent the app to the desktop so that a configuration panel is always visible. Or if you're really keen you could use API to replace the desktop altogether. Any way you choose you don't need the ball to 'overlap' the form. Just because you run the app in a form doesn't mean that everything must be bound by it.
