AnimScreen- Make the window grow to set size, when starting up a game/program

[Hemlos]

First, set in editor options the program window size to be 176x220

Then:

Code: (glbasic) [Select]

loadsprite "blah,png",0
AnimScreen(800,600,4,0)This will make a screen "grow" to 800x600 in 4 frames, with splashscreen stretching too.
Note: you wont need more itterations than 4, 4 is ok for speed and looks.

Code: (glbasic) [Select]


FUNCTION AnimScreen: x,y,ITERATIONS, spritenum
//animates the window from 176x220, to xy size.
//x=final screen width
//y=final screen height
//ITERATIONS=how many steps to animate...4 should be enough(max).
//instructions :set options in editor, window size: 176x220
//Call Example: AnimScreen(800*600)
//spritenum is splash screen sprite number to expand with window
