Hi,
I have a root Canvas and in that another Canvas, which contains several
objects (rectangle, images...). I want to centre a clicked object and scale
it to an almost screen filling size. If there is an object directly in a
neighbourhood of another I want to pan to it by clicking. The important thing
is that all transformations and scales should be animated and fluid, so the
user gets nice feedback of the motion.
My problem is, that if already scaled the canvas to let's say 2.3, with the
next scaling, it doesn't zoom fluid from 2.3 to 5. Either there is only one
abrupt transformation or the scaling goes back to 1 before scaling deeper to
5.
Do you know a better way for zooming and panning with Avalon?
Is there a failure or wrong strategy?
I just started with Avalon....here's my first try:
<Canvas Name="canvasRoot" Background="DarkGoldenrod" >
<Canvas MouseLeftButtonDown="_MouseLeftButtonDown"
MouseRightButtonDown="_MouseRightButtonDown" Name="canvasAll" Width="500"
Height="500" Background="Black">
<Rectangle Height="50" Width="50" Fill="Green" Stroke="Red"
StrokeThickness="2"
Canvas.Left="225" Canvas.Top="0">
</Rectangle>
<Rectangle Height="50" Width="50" Fill="Green" Stroke="Red"
StrokeThickness="2"
Canvas.Left="450" Canvas.Top="0">
</Rectangle>
</Canvas>
</Canvas>
