Dave Relyeaのブログに、Silverlight 2でのページ遷移エフェクトのサンプルが紹介されています。 ITransitionControlというインターフェイスと、UserControlからTransisionControlクラスをを定義して、スワップやワイプやフェードなどの遷移を実装しています

Hi Dave,

Enjoyed talking to you last week at the Silverlight training.

This is great stuff. I'll have to dig into the code more, but I'm wondering why there's such a performance hit when animating the control (DataGrid). Obviously that's a heavy duty control, but it seems like there would be a way to take a snapshot of the control and animate that. But maybe that's not yet possible in SL2.

Again, great stuff.

DataGrid is about the most heavyweight controls demo that I could have chosen, and I think that's what made me do it. So any other mix of controls will look good by comparison.

It would also be possible to get more sophisticated and load the new pages up in advance, and make sure it goes through layout, etc.

We don't have a way of doing the snapshot thing in this version.

But anyway...who really requires a zooming, spinning DataGrid like that? Other transitions are smoother.

The failure of the datagrid to perform simply points out two nagging problems.

1. No threading of the user interface, and failing that, no support for a yield to allow the data to load without freezing the UI.

2. As Dave stated, even if you can't do it right, access to a lower level Drawing/Bitmap API would allow you to capture and bitblt to the display.

SilverLight has a bit of growing up to do, but we'll get there.

Pages in Silverlight

Pages as a paradigm likely pre-date the web itself although they have been popularized by document-based

Navigation is a fairly big subject, but there is not much built-in support for it in Silverlight 2 as
