Revisions r13182 and r13185 implemented (experimental) support for grabbing RenderDoc captures. This requires hot-swapping the render context, the same scenario that you are trying to solve here. We are doing something similar, creating a new view with the same root content.

The code for recreating the view is this one (Window::RecreateView)

mView = GUI::CreateView(this);
mView->SetScale(mDisplay->GetScale());
mView->SetTessellationMaxPixelError(TessellationMaxPixelError::HighQuality());
mView->SetEmulateTouch(emulateTouch);
mView->SetFlags(mViewFlags);
mView->SetSize(mDisplay->GetClientWidth(), mDisplay->GetClientHeight());
mView->Update(0.0f);

mView->GetRenderer()->Init(context->GetDevice());

In my tests, animations are working fine. Could you please try this when 3.2.3 is released and in case you are still getting an assert attach a XAML here) ?

This was finally fixed in r16933 by adding the following new methods to IRenderer:

/// Detaches the current render device and forces the immediate release of all GPU resources
/// while keeping the CPU-side render tree intact. The renderer enters a suspended state
virtual void DetachDevice() = 0;

/// Attaches a new render device and wakes the renderer from a suspended state.
/// All necessary GPU resources are seamlessly recreated on the new render device
virtual void AttachDevice(RenderDevice* device) = 0;

This will be part of Noesis 4.0
