Cómo especificar si una línea de tiempo se invierte automáticamente.

La propiedad de una línea de tiempo de AutoReverse determina si se reproduce a la inversa después de completar una iteración hacia adelante. En el ejemplo siguiente se muestran varias animaciones con valores de duración y destino idénticos, pero con una configuración diferente AutoReverse . Para demostrar cómo se comporta la AutoReverse propiedad con diferentes RepeatBehavior configuraciones, algunas animaciones se establecen para repetirse. La última animación muestra cómo funciona la AutoReverse propiedad en escalas de tiempo anidadas.

Ejemplo

<!-- AutoReverseExample.xaml
     This example shows how to use the AutoReverse property to make a timeline 
     play backwards at the end of each iteration. 
     Several rectangles are animated by DoubleAnimations with 
     identical durations and target values, but with different
     AutoReverse and RepeatBehavior settings.-->
