    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to display a list of bound data in a then get a Canvas to animate behind each row. I'm having trouble getting a Storyboard to Begin when I place it inside a template. Here is an example of the XAML I have so far:</p> <pre><code> &lt;ListBox x:Name="MyListBox" Background="Transparent" Foreground="White" Height="200" Width="400" BorderThickness="0" Margin="0"&gt; &lt;ListBox.ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;DataTemplate x:Name="MySingleDataTemplate"&gt; &lt;StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" x:Name="MySingleStackPanel" Margin="0"&gt; &lt;StackPanel.Resources&gt; &lt;Storyboard x:Name="MySingleStoryboard" BeginTime="0:0:1"&gt; &lt;DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="Canvas99" Storyboard.TargetProperty="Width" AutoReverse="True" RepeatBehavior="Forever"&gt; &lt;LinearDoubleKeyFrame Value="0" KeyTime="0:0:0" /&gt; &lt;LinearDoubleKeyFrame Value="400" KeyTime="0:0:3" /&gt; &lt;/DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames&gt; &lt;/Storyboard&gt; &lt;/StackPanel.Resources&gt; &lt;Grid Background="Black" x:Name="MySingleGrid" Margin="0" ShowGridLines="False"&gt; &lt;Grid.ColumnDefinitions&gt; &lt;ColumnDefinition x:Name="Col0" Width="300" /&gt; &lt;ColumnDefinition x:Name="Col1" Width="100" /&gt; &lt;/Grid.ColumnDefinitions&gt; &lt;Grid.RowDefinitions&gt; &lt;RowDefinition Height="30" x:Name="Row0" /&gt; &lt;/Grid.RowDefinitions&gt; &lt;Canvas Background="{Binding CanvasColour}" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" x:Name="Canvas99" HorizontalAlignment="Left" /&gt; &lt;TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding Field1}" Margin="0"/&gt; &lt;TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding Field2}" Margin="0"/&gt; &lt;/Grid&gt; &lt;/StackPanel&gt; &lt;/DataTemplate&gt; &lt;/ListBox.ItemTemplate&gt; &lt;/ListBox&gt; </code></pre> <p>How can I call the equivalent of the C#:</p> <pre><code>MySingleStoryboard.Begin(); </code></pre> <p>Is there a way I can get it to start from C# or are there some other properties or Triggers I can use in Silverlight? Or am I going about it in completely the wrong way?</p> <p>thankyou Mike</p>
