XAML Transition issue when NavigationCacheMode is enabled

Question

I am using EntranceThemeTransition in my Win 8 RT app with NavigationCacheMode Enabled. The transition is working fine When I navigate to the page first time, but when I go back and again navigate to that page then the transition is not working. 

Answer 1

Hi,

I'm afraid that it is not the correct forum about this issue, since this forum is to discuss WPF.

So I have moved this thread to Windows Store Apps forum for better response.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best regards,
Franklin

Hi,

There is not enough information to detect why your problem occurs. You should upload your project into SkyDrive so that we can test it. And I think you can code EntranceThemeTransition like below, so the animation can play whenever the NavigationCacheMode set to Enabled or Disabled:

<ItemsControl Grid.Row="1" x:Name="rectangleItems">
            <ItemsControl.ItemContainerTransitions>
                <TransitionCollection>
                    <EntranceThemeTransition/>
                </TransitionCollection>
            </ItemsControl.ItemContainerTransitions>
            <ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
                <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                    <WrapGrid Height="400"/>
                </ItemsPanelTemplate>
            </ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>

            <!-- The sequence children appear depends on their order in 
         the panel's children, not necessarily on where they render
         on the screen. Be sure to arrange your child elements in
         the order you want them to transition into view. -->
            <ItemsControl.Items>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Rectangle Fill="Red" Width="100" Height="100" Margin="10"/>
                <Button Content="Button" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="60" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="176" Margin="687,0,-743,0" Click="Button_Click"/>
            </ItemsControl.Items>
        </ItemsControl>
