Advanced example (VB.NET)

' This code example checks if a settings value is true or false, and then determines whether to show the character without the show animation or with.
        If My.Settings.FastShow = True Then
            Merlin.Show(True)
' Not playing an animation will result in a blank frame, so please play one!
            Merlin.Play("Restpose")
        Else
            Merlin.Show(False)
        End If

Remarks

When Fast is set to true, an animation needs to be played with the Play method otherwise no frame will be displayed.
