#Remarks

The animation below illustrates the start-up widget animation slowed down by 50 percent.

If the AllowStartupAnimation property is set to Default, the behavior is controlled by the WindowsFormsSettings.AnimationMode global setting. If the global setting is set to Default or EnableAll, the animation is enabled. Otherwise, the animation is disabled. Use the AllowStartupAnimation property to override the global setting, and explicitly specify whether to use the start-up widget animation.
