[How Do I:] Use the ASP.NET AJAX UpdatePanelAnimation Extender?
====================
by [Joe Stagner](https://github.com/JoeStagner)

By adding animation to a partial-page update we can inform the user when an update is occuring, and when it has finished. The UpdatePanelAnimation extender adds animation effects to the ASP.NET AJAX UpdatePanel control, making use of the rich animation framework of the core ASP.NET AJAX Extensions. This video shows how you can define the sequence of effects for the UpdatePanelAnimation, and how you can fine-tune the animation by using ScriptAction definitions.
