Property Value
string
The RoutedEvent that will activate this trigger.
This property is read/write. The default value is an empty string.
Remarks
In Silverlight 1.0, the only event that you can use for an EventTrigger is the Loaded event.
For animations that are intended to trigger from events other than Loaded, create a conventional event handler, which can either be referenced in XAML attribute syntax or by adding it with AddEventListener. Within the event handler code, get a reference to a Storyboard (typically these are stored as Resources) and then call the Begin method on that Storyboard.
