Rotate animation behavior
nmetulev
The Rotate animation behavior allows users to modify and animate the control's rotation (outdated docs).

Rotate

Warning

This behavior is no longer available in the Windows Community Toolkit. Please refer to the docs for the AnimationSet and ImplicitAnimationSet types instead.

The Rotate animation allows users to modify and animate the control's rotation. Rotate animation is applied to all the XAML elements in its parent control/panel. Rotate animation doesn't affect the functionality of the control.

Sample Output

Rotate Behavior animation

Properties

Property Type Description
Value float The value in degrees to rotate
CenterX float The center x in pixels
CenterY float The center y in pixels
Duration double The duration in milliseconds
Delay double The delay for the animation to begin
EasingType EasingType Used to describe how the animation interpolates between keyframes

EasingType

You can change the way how the animation interpolates between keyframes by defining the EasingType using an optional parameter.

EasingType Explanation Graphical Explanation
Default Creates an animation that accelerates with the default EasingType which is specified in AnimationExtensions.DefaultEasingType which is by default Cubic
Linear Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates linear
Back Retracts the motion of an animation slightly before it begins to animate in the path indicated BackEase
Bounce Creates a bouncing effect BounceEase
Circle Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates using a circular function CircleEase
Cubic Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates using the formula f(t) = t3 CubicEase
Elastic Creates an animation that resembles a spring oscillating back and forth until it comes to rest ElasticEase
Quadratic Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates using the formula f(t) = t2 QuadraticEase
Quartic Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates using the formula f(t) = t4 QuarticEase
Quintic Create an animation that accelerates or decelerates using the formula f(t) = t5 QuinticEase
Sine Creates an animation that accelerates or decelerates using a sine formula SineEase

Methods

Methods Return Type Description
Rotate(AnimationSet, Single, Single, Single, Double, Double, EasingType) AnimationSet Animates the rotation in degrees of the UIElement
Rotate(UIElement, Single, Single, Single, Double, Double, EasingType) AnimationSet Animates the rotation in degrees of the UIElement

Examples

  • Use this to create chaining animations with other animations. Visit the AnimationSet documentation for more information.

    Sample Code

    var anim = MyUIElement.Rotate(30).Fade(0.5f).Blur(5);
anim.SetDurationForAll(2500);
anim.SetDelay(250);
anim.Completed += animation_completed;
anim.Start();
    Dim anim = MyUIElement.Rotate(30).Fade(0.5F).Blur(5)
anim.SetDurationForAll(2500)
anim.SetDelay(250)
AddHandler anim.Completed, AddressOf animation_completed
anim.Start()
