Remarks
The ChartAnimationRecordCollection class represents a collection of ChartAnimationRecord objects that represent animation records. Its properties and methods can be used to perform common collection operations such as adding new or deleting existing items. Individual items can be accessed using indexer notation.
A collection of animation records can be accessed via the chart control’s ChartControl.AnimationRecords property.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to animate series points, so that their values are dynamically changed when displaying a chart.
To accomplish this, it is first necessary to add a trigger to a chart’s Triggers collection, which will start the Year1998Animation in response to the chart’s Loaded event. Then, to the ChartControl.AnimationRecords collection, add a ChartAnimationRecord with a SeriesAnimation object.
