IUIAnimationStoryboard::HoldVariable method (uianimation.h)

Directs the storyboard to hold the specified animation variable at its final value until the storyboard ends.

Syntax

HRESULT HoldVariable(
  [in] IUIAnimationVariable *variable
);

Parameters

[in] variable

The animation variable.

Return value

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code. See Windows Animation Error Codes for a list of error codes.

Remarks

When a storyboard is playing, it has exclusive access to any variables it animates unless the storyboard is trimmed by a higher priority storyboard. Typically, this exclusive access is released when the last transition in the storyboard for that variable finishes playing. Applications can call this method to maintain exclusive access to the animation variable and hold the variable, at the final value of the last transition, until the end of the storyboard.
