# How to: Animate a Property by Using an AnimationClock
|
|
This example shows how to use <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Clock> objects to animate a property.
|
|
|
|
There are three ways to animate a dependency property:
|
|
|
|
- Create an <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.AnimationTimeline> and associate it with that property by using a <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Storyboard>.
|
|
|
|
- Use the object's <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Animatable.BeginAnimation%2A> method to apply a single <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.AnimationTimeline> to a target property.
|
|
|
|
- Create an <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.AnimationClock> from an <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.AnimationTimeline> and apply it to a property.
|
|
|
|
<xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Storyboard> objects and the <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Animatable.BeginAnimation%2A> method enable you to animate properties without directly creating and distributing clocks (for examples, see [Animate a Property by Using a Storyboard](how-to-animate-a-property-by-using-a-storyboard.md) and [Animate a Property Without Using a Storyboard](how-to-animate-a-property-without-using-a-storyboard.md)); clocks are created and distributed for you automatically.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
The following example shows how to create an <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.AnimationClock> and apply it to two similar properties.
|
|
|
|
[!code-csharp[timingbehaviors_procedural_snip#GraphicsMMCreateAnimationClockWholeClass](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/timingbehaviors_procedural_snip/CSharp/AnimationClockExample.cs#graphicsmmcreateanimationclockwholeclass)]
|
|
[!code-vb[timingbehaviors_procedural_snip#GraphicsMMCreateAnimationClockWholeClass](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Wpf/timingbehaviors_procedural_snip/visualbasic/animationclockexample.vb#graphicsmmcreateanimationclockwholeclass)]
|
|
|
|
For an example showing how to interactively control a <xref:System.Windows.Media.Animation.Clock> after it starts, see [Interactively Control a Clock](how-to-interactively-control-a-clock.md).
