Remarks

The current global speed of a timeline's clock changes in the following circumstances:

  • The clock changes direction because of its timeline's AutoReverse setting.

  • The clock accelerates or decelerates because of its timeline's AccelerationRatio or DecelerationRatio property settings.

  • The clock is paused or resumed.

  • The clock becomes inactive or reactivates.

  • The CurrentGlobalSpeed of one of the clock's parent changes.

The CurrentGlobalSpeedInvalidated event is useful for tracking when a timeline's clock becomes paused; in your event handler, use your storyboard's GetCurrentGlobalSpeed method or check the clock's IsPaused property to determine whether its clock is paused; compare this against a previously cached value to determine whether it changed.

The Object parameter of the EventHandler event handler is the timeline's Clock.

Although this event handler appears to be associated with a timeline, it actually registers with the Clock created for this timeline. For more information, see the Timing Events Overview.
