How to: Accumulate Animation Values During Repeat Cycles

Artículo
11/03/2006

This example shows how to use the IsCumulative property to accumulate animation values across repeating cycles.

Example

Use the IsCumulative property to accumulate base values of an animation across repeating cycles. For example, if you set an animation to repeat 9 times (RepeatBehavior = “9x”) and you set the property to animate between 10 and 15 (From = 10 To = 15), the property animates from 10 to 15 during the first cycle, from 15 to 20 during the second cycle, from 20 to 25 during the third cycle, and so on. Hence, each animation cycle uses the ending animation value from the previous animation cycle as its base value.

You can use the IsCumulative 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 this behavior by animating the width of four rectangles. The example:

Animates the first rectangle with DoubleAnimation and sets the IsCumulative property to true.
Animates the second rectangle with DoubleAnimation and sets the IsCumulative property to the default value of false.
Animates the third rectangle with DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames and sets the IsCumulative property to true.
Animates the last rectangle with DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames and sets the IsCumulative property to false.
