Question

i am looking for some transition effects in SL4. Do these come standard or is there some kind of framework addon?

Does anyone know of examples, tutorials.

If a framework exists is there documentation?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

The SL4 framework has very powerful animation and storyboard features, but no transitions concepts built in. However the Silverlight Toolkit, which is developed by Microsoft, has a TransitioningContentControl:

This will provide nice transitions as you change the content which it contains. See the following tutorial:
