Remarks

Interactively Controlling Storyboards

A controllable storyboard can pause, resume, seek, stop, and be removed. To make a storyboard controllable in markup, you specify the Name property of the BeginStoryboard object that creates it; for an example, see How to: Use Event Triggers to Control a Storyboard After It Starts. To make a storyboard controllable in code, you must use the appropriate overload of the storyboard's Begin method and specify true to make it controllable. For an example, see How to: Control a Storyboard After It Starts.

Data Binding and Animating Timelines

Most timeline properties can be data bound or animated; however, because of the way the timing system works, data bound or animated timelines do not behave like other data bound or animated objects. To understand their behavior, it helps to understand what it means to activate a timeline.

When a timeline is activated, copies are made of the timeline and its child timelines. These copies are frozen (made read-only) and Clock objects are created from them. These clocks do the actual work of animating the targeted properties. If a timeline is data bound or animated, a snapshot of its current values is made when its clock is created. Even though the original timeline might continue to change, its clock does not.

For a timeline to reflect data binding or animation changes, its clock must be re-created. Clocks are not re-created for you automatically. The following are several ways to apply timeline changes:

  • If the timeline is or belongs to a Storyboard, you can make it reflect changes by reapplying its storyboard using a BeginStoryboard or the Begin method. This has the side effect of also restarting the animation. In code, you can use the Seek method to advance the storyboard back to its previous position.

  • If you applied an animation directly to a property using the BeginAnimation method, call the BeginAnimation method again and pass it the animation that has been modified.

  • If you are working directly at the clock level, create and apply a new set of clocks and use them to replace the previous set of created clocks.

For an example of a data bound animation, see Key Spline Animation Sample .
