Is the MSFT AJAX Animation control the correct one to do this animation:

Question

I need to have a stack of 10 text lines, possibly div's, and insert a line arbitrarily somehere in the list. In addition I'd like to fade in a highlight (for the new line) and fade out.

Is MSFT AJAX the correct tool to use for this?

Answer 1

There are alternatives but as to whether this is the right one is subjective. Do you (and your colleagues) understand this implementation? Is it fast/light enough (i.e. are the users complaining)? If the answers are "Yes" then I'd say Microsoft AJAX is appropriate for this.
