ElasticEase Class

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Represents an easing function that creates an animation that resembles a spring oscillating back and forth until it comes to rest.

Properties

  Name Description
Public propertySupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Dispatcher Gets the Dispatcher this object is associated with. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public propertySupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone EasingMode Gets or sets a value that specifies how the animation interpolates. (Inherited from EasingFunctionBase.)
Public propertySupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Oscillations Gets or sets the number of times the target slides back and forth over the animation destination.
Public propertySupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Springiness Gets or sets the stiffness of the spring. The smaller the Springiness value is, the stiffer the spring and the faster the elasticity decreases in intensity over each oscillation.

Methods

  Name Description
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone CheckAccess Determines whether the calling thread has access to this object. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ClearValue Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Ease Transforms normalized time to control the pace of an animation. (Inherited from EasingFunctionBase.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone EaseInCore Provides the logic portion of the easing function that you can override to produce the EaseIn mode of the custom easing function. (Overrides EasingFunctionBase.EaseInCore(Double).)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetAnimationBaseValue Returns any base value established for a Silverlight dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetValue Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ReadLocalValue Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone SetValue Sets the local value of a dependency property on a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

You can control when in the "spring" behavior occurs in an animation by specifying the EasingMode property value. The following graph demonstrates the different values of EasingMode, where f(t) represents the animation progress and t represents time.

ElasticEase with graphs of different easingmodes.

You can specify how many times the animation oscillates back and forth using the Oscillations property and how tight the springiness of the oscillations are using the Springiness property.

NoteNote:

Because this animation causes values to oscillate back and forth, the animation might interpolate into negative numbers unexpectedly. This can cause errors when animating properties that do not allow negative numbers. For example, if you apply this animation to the Height of an object (e.g. from 0 to 200 with an EasingMode of EaseIn), the animation will attempt to interpolate through negative numbers for Height which will throw an error.

There are several other easing functions besides ElasticEase, which you can explore using the following sample.

Run this sample

In addition to using the easing functions included in the run-time, you can create your own custom easing functions by inheriting from EasingFunctionBase.

Examples

The following example applies an ElasticEase easing function to a DoubleAnimation to create an animation that resembles a spring oscillating back and forth until it comes to rest.

// When the user clicks the rectangle, the animation
// begins.

    myStoryboard.Begin();
