How to set transition from code behind?

[bill]

Hello Telerik,


  Could you please show me how to set this transition from code behind? I have a frame that i would like to add different transition to depending on the page the user selects.

<navigatio:Frame x:Name="DetailsFrame" Grid.ColumnSpan="2"  Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="0"   Margin="8,10,30,9" Width="Auto" >
                <navigatio:Frame.Background>
                    <ImageBrush Stretch="Fill"/>
                </navigatio:Frame.Background>
            <navigatio:Frame.Template>
                <ControlTemplate TargetType="navigatio:Frame">
                    <telerik:RadTransitionControl  Duration="0:0:0.8" Name="trnx" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}">
                        <telerik:RadTransitionControl.Transition>
                            <transitions:SlideAndZoomTransition


                            >

                            </transitions:SlideAndZoomTransition>
                        </telerik:RadTransitionControl.Transition>

                    </telerik:RadTransitionControl>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </navigatio:Frame.Template>
        </navigatio:Frame>

Hello Bill,

 You could use the following code:

transitionControl.Transition = new SlideAndZoomTransition();

where transitionControl is your RadTransitionControl.

All the best,

Hi Miroslav and thank you for the reply.

I am unable to get a reference to the transition control is the problem. i wasnt sure if i had to use findcontrol or something because it is a inside the frame. also what namespace are you importing to get the transition types? anything besides the Telerik.Windows.Controls.dll? i have tried declaring the control name as: but cant get a referecne to it in the code behind
Name="trnx"  and x:Name="trnx"

Hello Bill,

 The easiest way to get reference to the transition control is to hook-up to its Loaded event and to cast the sender of the handler to RadTransitionControl and save this reference for further use.

The Transitions are in the Telerik.Windows.Controls.TransitionEffects namespace. They are all inheriting from the TransitionProvider class and their names end with Transition. 

Kind regards,
