Blend for Visual Studio lets you easily create short animations that move objects or fade them in and out, for example.

To create an animation, you need a storyboard. A storyboard contains one or more timelines. Set keyframes on a timeline to mark property changes. Then, when you run the animation, Blend for Visual Studio interpolates the property changes over the designated period of time. The result is a smooth transition. You can animate any property that belongs to an object, even nonvisual properties.

The following images shows a storyboard named Storyboard1. The timeline contains keyframes that mark the X and Y position of a rectangle. When this animation runs, the rectangle moves from one position to another smoothly.
