MatrixAnimationUsingPath.IsAdditive Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the target property's current value should be added to this animation's starting value.

public:
 property bool IsAdditive { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public bool IsAdditive { get; set; }
member this.IsAdditive : bool with get, set
Public Property IsAdditive As Boolean

Property Value

true if the target property's current value should be added to this animation's starting value; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Examples

The following example uses two similar MatrixAnimationUsingPath animations to animate the same rectangle. The first animation's IsAdditive property is set to false, so it always animates the rectangle from (0,0), the animation's starting value. The second animation has the same target values (their PathGeometry settings are identical), but its IsAdditive property is set to true; as a result, it animates the rectangle from whatever position it is at when the animation is applied.
