Hi, I am probably being really stupid but for the life of me I cannot get the charts to animate when they are rendered.
I am using 13.1 WPF XamDataChart and either using the Column series or doughnut series and want the charts to animate when the data is loaded.
This was possible in the older versions but the only reference I can find regarding animations is the motion framework stuff.
So, does anyone have a sample application or snippet that shows how to enable animations of charts when loaded.
thanks
Dan
Hello Dan,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into it and I can say that one way of achieving the functionality you want is using Motion framework as you said. Here you can find more information:

Also I can suggest you see this forum thread:

where Krasimir attached a sample, where an animation is used.
Hope this helps you.
Hi Stefan,
Thank you for your reply. Sorry it has taken a while to reply to your post.
I have looked into the links provided but am left a bit confused. Why was the animation functionality that was present in the versions below not present in the 13.1 release? It was really easy to create nice and animated dashboards and charts with the older versions with only a few lines of xaml. Now there is quite a bit of work just to get a few lines to animate in or a few chart segments to move into place. I dont understand why this was removed.
If you could enlighten me that would be great.
Kind regards
