TransitionManager.EndTransition() Method

Finalizes the current animated state transition.

Namespace : DevExpress.Utils.Animation

Assembly : DevExpress.Utils.v25.2.dll

NuGet Packages : DevExpress.Utils, DevExpress.Wpf.Core

Declaration

csharp
public void EndTransition()
vb
Public Sub

Remarks

The EndTransition method completes the animation that was initiated by the TransitionManager.StartTransition method. See TransitionManager to learn more.

Example

This example contains an XtraTabControl with two tabs. The TransitionManager component is used to animate switching between these tabs, using a certain animation effect (specified by the Transition Type combobox). Animated tab switching is initiated in the XtraTabControl.SelectedPageChanging event handler and is finished in the XtraTabControl.SelectedPageChanged event handler.Before the transition starts, it is created in the SelectedIndexChanged event of the combobox control. By default, the entire area occupied by the control is animated by the TransitionManager. In the example, the CustomTransition event is handled to exclude the tab region from animation.

The following image shows the state transition in progress:
