Over the past couple of days I had a chance to update the
TranstionContainer control in
FluidKit. There are a
bunch of refactorings and some new features:
- TransitionContainer has been renamed to TransitionPresenter
- Previously TransitionPresenter was a ContentControl, but used as if
it were an ItemsControl. I have now made it into an ItemsControl,
which gives you data-binding capabilities. This is pretty useful if
your transitioning between data-bound items instead of screens/views
in your application.
- A new property called IsLooped has been added. This allows you
to play a continuous transition as soon the TransitionPresenter gets
loaded. This was added because of a requirement in my current
project. I am not sure if this is useful elsewhere but thought I’ll
roll this update into
FluidKit. There is
also a RestDurationproperty that allows you to set the pause
time between transitions. This property is only useful when IsLooped
is true.
As always, the code is checked into
CodePlex
