Why

Under Windows here is no easy way to provide animated icons/images to standard Windows components such as Buttons, treeview.
The very popular Virtual Treeview component also lack the ability to easily animate cell content

Solution

Implemented TSkAnimatedImageList, a TCustomImageList descendant, for many standard Windows VCL controls
Implemented TSkAnimatedBitmap, a TComponent descendant, for Virtual treeview or any OwnerDraw controls

Features

In TSkAnimatedImageList:

• Items can mix raster images (bmp, png, jpg,...), vector images (svg) or animations (lottie, tgs, ...)
• very simplified handling of animation - running or not. All animation are looped
• Designtime Editor has been added for raster image

in TSkAnimatedBitmap:

• Rendering is done either automatically or on demand
• Easy to use in OwnerDraw event of any VCL component

Demo application

The demo app is located in folder [skia_root]Samples/AnimImageList
This demo requires Virtual Treeview

Configuration

As unit Vcl.Skia.Pas has been changed, a full recompile is needed.
Virtual treeview is also needed to build the demo application.

Note

Sorry for the noise in the DPROJ file - My Delphi IDE is doing it automatically
