Methods

AllocateClock()	Creates a Clock for this AnimationTimeline. (Inherited from AnimationTimeline)
ApplyAnimationClock(DependencyProperty, AnimationClock, HandoffBehavior)	Applies an AnimationClock to the specified DependencyProperty. If the property is already animated, the specified HandoffBehavior is used. (Inherited from Animatable)
ApplyAnimationClock(DependencyProperty, AnimationClock)	Applies an AnimationClock to the specified DependencyProperty. If the property is already animated, the SnapshotAndReplace handoff behavior is used. (Inherited from Animatable)
BeginAnimation(DependencyProperty, AnimationTimeline, HandoffBehavior)	Applies an animation to the specified DependencyProperty. The animation is started when the next frame is rendered. If the specified property is already animated, the specified HandoffBehavior is used. (Inherited from Animatable)
BeginAnimation(DependencyProperty, AnimationTimeline)	Applies an animation to the specified DependencyProperty. The animation is started when the next frame is rendered. If the specified property is already animated, the SnapshotAndReplace handoff behavior is used. (Inherited from Animatable)
CheckAccess()	Determines whether the calling thread has access to this DispatcherObject. (Inherited from DispatcherObject)
ClearValue(DependencyProperty)	Clears the local value of a property. The property to be cleared is specified by a DependencyProperty identifier. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
ClearValue(DependencyPropertyKey)	Clears the local value of a read-only property. The property to be cleared is specified by a DependencyPropertyKey. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
Clone()	Creates a modifiable clone of this StringAnimationBase, making deep copies of this object's values. When copying dependency properties, this method copies resource references and data bindings (but they might no longer resolve) but not animations or their current values.
CloneCore(Freezable)	Makes the instance a clone (deep copy) of the specified Freezable using base (non-animated) property values. (Inherited from Freezable)
CloneCurrentValue()	Creates a modifiable clone of this Timeline object, making deep copies of this object's current values. (Inherited from Timeline)
CloneCurrentValueCore(Freezable)	Makes the instance a modifiable clone (deep copy) of the specified Freezable using current property values. (Inherited from Freezable)
CoerceValue(DependencyProperty)	Coerces the value of the specified dependency property. This is accomplished by invoking any CoerceValueCallback function specified in property metadata for the dependency property as it exists on the calling DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
CreateClock()	Creates a new AnimationClock from this AnimationTimeline. (Inherited from AnimationTimeline)
CreateClock(Boolean)	Creates a new Clock from this Timeline and specifies whether the new Clock is controllable. If this Timeline has children, a tree of clocks is created with this Timeline as the root. (Inherited from Timeline)
CreateInstance()	Initializes a new instance of the Freezable class. (Inherited from Freezable)
CreateInstanceCore()	When implemented in a derived class, creates a new instance of the Freezable derived class. (Inherited from Freezable)
Equals(Object)	Determines whether a provided DependencyObject is equivalent to the current DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
Freeze()	Makes the current object unmodifiable and sets its IsFrozen property to `true`. (Inherited from Freezable)
FreezeCore(Boolean)	Makes this Timeline unmodifiable or determines whether it can be made unmodifiable. (Inherited from Timeline)
GetAnimationBaseValue(DependencyProperty)	Returns the non-animated value of the specified DependencyProperty. (Inherited from Animatable)
GetAsFrozen()	Creates a frozen copy of the Freezable, using base (non-animated) property values. Because the copy is frozen, any frozen sub-objects are copied by reference. (Inherited from Freezable)
GetAsFrozenCore(Freezable)	Makes this instance a clone of the specified Timeline object. (Inherited from Timeline)
GetCurrentValue(Object, Object, AnimationClock)	Gets the current value of the animation.
GetCurrentValue(String, String, AnimationClock)	Gets the current value of the animation.
GetCurrentValueAsFrozen()	Creates a frozen copy of the Freezable using current property values. Because the copy is frozen, any frozen sub-objects are copied by reference. (Inherited from Freezable)
GetCurrentValueAsFrozenCore(Freezable)	Makes this instance a frozen clone of the specified Timeline. Resource references, data bindings, and animations are not copied, but their current values are. (Inherited from Timeline)
GetCurrentValueCore(String, String, AnimationClock)	Calculates a value that represents the current value of the property being animated, as determined by the host animation.
GetHashCode()	Gets a hash code for this DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
GetLocalValueEnumerator()	Creates a specialized enumerator for determining which dependency properties have locally set values on this DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
GetNaturalDuration(Clock)	Returns the length of a single iteration of this Timeline. (Inherited from Timeline)
GetNaturalDurationCore(Clock)	Returns the length of a single iteration of this AnimationTimeline. (Inherited from AnimationTimeline)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)

InvalidateProperty(DependencyProperty)	Re-evaluates the effective value for the specified dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
OnChanged()	Called when the current Freezable object is modified. (Inherited from Freezable)
OnFreezablePropertyChanged(DependencyObject, DependencyObject, DependencyProperty)	This member supports the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. (Inherited from Freezable)
OnFreezablePropertyChanged(DependencyObject, DependencyObject)	Ensures that appropriate context pointers are established for a DependencyObjectType data member that has just been set. (Inherited from Freezable)
OnPropertyChanged(DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs)	Overrides the DependencyObject implementation of OnPropertyChanged(DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs) to also invoke any Changed handlers in response to a changing dependency property of type Freezable. (Inherited from Freezable)
ReadLocalValue(DependencyProperty)	Returns the local value of a dependency property, if it exists. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
ReadPreamble()	Ensures that the Freezable is being accessed from a valid thread. Inheritors of Freezable must call this method at the beginning of any API that reads data members that are not dependency properties. (Inherited from Freezable)
SetCurrentValue(DependencyProperty, Object)	Sets the value of a dependency property without changing its value source. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
SetValue(DependencyProperty, Object)	Sets the local value of a dependency property, specified by its dependency property identifier. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
SetValue(DependencyPropertyKey, Object)	Sets the local value of a read-only dependency property, specified by the DependencyPropertyKey identifier of the dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
ShouldSerializeProperty(DependencyProperty)	Returns a value that indicates whether serialization processes should serialize the value for the provided dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
VerifyAccess()	Enforces that the calling thread has access to this DispatcherObject. (Inherited from DispatcherObject)
WritePostscript()	Raises the Changed event for the Freezable and invokes its OnChanged() method. Classes that derive from Freezable should call this method at the end of any API that modifies class members that are not stored as dependency properties. (Inherited from Freezable)
WritePreamble()	Verifies that the Freezable is not frozen and that it is being accessed from a valid threading context. Freezable inheritors should call this method at the beginning of any API that writes to data members that are not dependency properties. (Inherited from Freezable)

Events

Changed	Occurs when the Freezable or an object it contains is modified. (Inherited from Freezable)
Completed	Occurs when this timeline has completely finished playing: it will no longer enter its active period. (Inherited from Timeline)
CurrentGlobalSpeedInvalidated	Occurs when the rate at which time progresses for the timeline's clock changes. (Inherited from Timeline)
CurrentStateInvalidated	Occurs when the CurrentState property of the timeline's Clock is updated. (Inherited from Timeline)
CurrentTimeInvalidated	Occurs when the CurrentTime property of the timeline's Clock is updated. (Inherited from Timeline)
RemoveRequested	Occurs when the clock created for this timeline or one of its parent timelines is removed. (Inherited from Timeline)
