Scrub the timeline (Blend for Visual Studio)

Scrubbing refers to manually scrolling through an animation, forward and backward, previewing your animation, pausing where you like in case you want to add a keyframe.

To scrub the timeline

  1. Select the timeline from the Storyboard picker by clicking Open a Storyboard JJ154972.d4531c86-5048-481c-a1ca-29af202d28e7(en-us,VS.110).png under Objects and Timeline and then selecting a storyboard.

    As you drag the playhead, you will see the animation play out on the artboard.
