Remarks
To animate a view that receives user touch input from outside of the screen, the developer must first lay out the view in its final position, then translate the view off screen, and then finally animate the view back to its final position on the screen.
TranslateTo is useful for animations because it is applied post-layout. Translation animations will not conflict with managed layouts and thus are ideal for doing slide in/out style animations.
