How to: Add an Animation Output Value to an Animation Starting Value

This example shows how to add an animation output value to an animation starting value.

Example

The IsAdditive property specifies whether you want the output value of an animation added to the starting value (base value) of an animated property. You can use the IsAdditive property with most basic animations and most key frame animations. For more information, see Animation Overview and Key-Frame Animations Overview.

The following example shows the effect of using the System.Windows.Media.Animation.DoubleAnimation.IsAdditive property with DoubleAnimation and using the System.Windows.Media.Animation.DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames.IsAdditive property with DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames.

              <!-- DoubleAnimation with IsAdditive set to "True". Because IsAdditive is set to "True" the 
                   actual starting value of the animation is equal to the sum of the default starting 
                   value of 100 (From="100)and the animation output value of 100 (From="100" To="200") Therefore
                   the animation begins at 200 pixels. Notice that each time the button is clicked and the 
                   animation is initiated, the animation starting value builds upon the preceeding ending value. -->
