I use a data trigger to control some storyboards, but it only can be trigger one time.
<Style x:Key="PropertyTriggerExampleButtonStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
<Setter Property="Width" Value="200" />
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding para}" Value="0">
<DataTrigger.EnterActions>
<BeginStoryboard>
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width"
To="500" Duration="0:0:1" />
</Storyboard>
</BeginStoryboard>
</DataTrigger.EnterActions>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding para}" Value="1">
<DataTrigger.EnterActions>
<BeginStoryboard>
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width"
To="200" Duration="0:0:1" />
</Storyboard>
</BeginStoryboard>
</DataTrigger.EnterActions>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
<Button Style="{StaticResource PropertyTriggerExampleButtonStyle}">
button width will be changed
</Button>
The para is a variable (already implement INotifyPropertyChanged interface)which will be control by another button. its value is 0 or 1.
But when I click the button to change the para value, the storyboard only trigger one time for every value(0 and 1). It will never trigger later.
If I put the second storyboard into ExitActions tag of the first data trigger. it will work well. But I have more than 2 storyboard need control......
following code works well,but I need control many storyboard (more than 2) according to different value....
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding para}" Value="0">
<DataTrigger.EnterActions>
<BeginStoryboard>
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width" To="500" Duration="0:0:1" />
</Storyboard>
</BeginStoryboard>
</DataTrigger.EnterActions>
<DataTrigger.ExitActions>
<BeginStoryboard>
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width" To="200" Duration="0:0:1" />
</Storyboard>
</BeginStoryboard>
</DataTrigger.ExitActions>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
You can use System.Windows.Interaction.Interactivity with condition to launch storyboards.
