AnimationDescription.StaggerDelayFactor Property

Definition

Namespace:

Windows.UI.Core.AnimationMetrics

Gets a multiplier that is applied to each occurrence of the stagger delay, increasing or decreasing the previous delay instance by that amount.

public:
 property float StaggerDelayFactor { float get(); };

float StaggerDelayFactor();

public float StaggerDelayFactor { get; }

var single = animationDescription.staggerDelayFactor;

Public ReadOnly Property StaggerDelayFactor As Single

Property Value

Single

float

The factor to apply to the stagger delay.

Remarks

The StaggerDelayFactor is a multiplier applied to the last value of the StaggerDelay. Consider a target that consists of four objects— labeled A, B, C, and D— with an initial StaggerDelay of 100 ms and a StaggerDelayFactor of 0.75. This means that the delay between subsequent objects is reduced to 75% of the previous delay. Under these conditions, object A animates at time t=0 and object B at time t=100 ms. The StaggerDelayFactor then reduces the delay for object C to 100 ms * 0.75 = 75 ms, so object C animates at time t=175 ms. The StaggerDelayFactor then reduces the delay for object D to 75 ms * 0.75 = 56 ms, so object D animates at time t=231 ms.

However, there is one more element that can affect these values— the DelayLimit. See that topic for a discussion of its effect on the relative animation timing.
