c++ win32 popup animation

Question

Hello, I am creating an application that uses popups. However, I would like to animate this popup (a win32 window, a HWND), for example having it slowly extend from the bottom of my screen, moving upwards. Should I make a few dozens of calls to the SetWindowPos function with a small pause in between, or is there a better way to do this, using c++ and win32?

Answer 1

You could also use the AnimateWindow() Windows API function.
