- 15. PAGE TRANSITIONS ? Easy way to add page transitions to your app similar to those in the built-in apps ? Different transitions are included ? ? Roll, Swivel, Rotate, ºÝºÝߣ and Turnstile Start by using the TransitionFrame control from the Windows Phone Toolkit instead of the default PhoneApplicationFrame ? Set in InitializePhoneApplication() method in App.Xaml.cs: / /RootFrame = new PhoneApplicationFrame(); RootFrame = new TransitionFrame();
- 16. ENABLING TRANSITIONS ON A PAGE ? Declare namespace for Windows Phone Toolkit assembly ? Under <phone:PhoneApplicationPage> root element, add transition you want
- 17. TILTEFFECT ? Add additional visual feedback for control interaction ? Instead of simple states such as Pressed or Unpressed, controls with TiltEffect enabled provide motion during manipulation ? For example, Button has a subtle 3D effect and appears to move into the page when pressed and bounce back again when released ? Easy to enable TiltEffect for all controls on a page ? Also can apply to individual controls
