Can I use user controls for pages instead of images?

[Vlad]

Hello,

I am wondering if I can place animations on top the images instead of only loading images. I was thinking to create a set of user controls with storyboard in them. I populate pages with ObservableCollection where I define the source of the images. However, I need to have animation on top of these images. What will be the right way to achieve this? Is any sample available for this scenario? Any ideas are highly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Hi Vlad,

I prepared a sample for you that shows how a Rectangle is being animated over an Image that is inside a RadBookItem. Could you please give it a try and let us know if it helps you? Thank you for your cooperation.

Thank you. It is a great sample. I am wondering if you can explain a strange artefact I am getting. I am using pathListBox control for one of the animation that I place inside BookItem. The animated objects become off their original position after visiting that page few times. As soon as I browse through the pages quickly, the faster I am getting the animated objects with pathListBox control off their position. I never get objects off their original position after I remove pathListBox control with animated objects outside the bookItem. What this be be? Is any way to fix it? Thank you.

Hello Vlad,

Unfotunately, we are not aware of similar existing issues in the RadBook control. Could you please elaborate more on your scenario? How do you set up your animations ? Are you able to reproduce this issue with other controls (different from PathListBox) ? Do you use Hard Pages ? Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Hi Manjerekar,

 RadBookItem is ContentControl so you can put everything in its Content. Please check out the attached solution and let us know if it is a good starting point for you or not.
