FIRE is a Windows 95 Common Controls dialog-based sample application. It simulates fire and allows you to change various properties of the fire by adjusting Windows Common Controls on the dialog.

To change attributes of the fire, do any of the following.

• Click Tab to change the palette that renders the fire.
  
  
• Click and drag Vertical Slider along the right side of the fire to adjust the ceiling of the flames. Note the Progress Indicator control below the fire that tells you when the adjustment is complete.

To use the Tree control

• Click one of the leaf nodes: Decay, Flammability, Maximum Heat, Spread Rate, or Size under the Fire node, or Smoothness, Distribution, or Chaos under the Render node.
  
  
• Use the up and down arrows to adjust the value that appears in the Spin control.
  
  
• Click Apply to update the value and watch the fire change accordingly.
