Deactivate animations when changing ViewDefinitions

[Steffen]

Hi,

I'm trying to migrate from RadScheduler to RadscheduleView and I'm on version 2012.1.326.40 right now.

Due to very heavy appointment templates I have to deactivate the animations when transitioning, because they hang for a long time even on the fastest machines.

This was easy to do, but somehow this stopped to work with 2012.1.

I tried without success:

    -Telerik.Windows.Controls.Animation.AnimationManager.IsGlobalAnimationEnabled = false;
    -Telerik.Windows.Controls.Animation.AnimationManager.SetIsAnimationEnabled(UIscheduler, false);
    -telerik:AnimationManager.IsAnimationEnabled="False"

How can I disable these animations?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Best Regards

Steffen

Hello Steffen,

Thank you for the shared information. 

The transitions between the different views are handled by the RadTransitionControl inside the ControlTemplate of the RadScheduleView. With this in mind, you can locate it via the ChildrenOfType extension method and set its Transition property to null. You can do that in the Loaded event of the RadScheduleView:

private void ScheduleView_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var scheduleView = sender as RadScheduleView;

            var transitionControl = scheduleView.ChildrenOfType<RadTransitionControl>().First();
            transitionControl.Transition = null;
        }

I hope you find this helpful.
