- I would like to animate the icon of a minimised window. I guess
- this can be done by continually changing the hIcon of the
- window class. So what I did is to set a timer, and upon the
- reception of WM_TIMER, I check if the window is iconic. If it
- is, I use SetClassWord to change the hicon.
-
- problem : the dang thing doesn't seem to be working.
- can someone give me an idea on how to go about implementing it ?
- am I on the wrong track ? I've check the API, and there doesn't seem
- to be a function for this purpose.
-
- Thanx in advance.
