VisualStateManager Class
namespace Noesis | MSDN
Manages states and the logic for transitioning between states for controls.
The VisualStateManager enables you to specify states for a control, the appearance of a control when it is in a certain state, and when a control changes states.

Properties
From DispatcherObject
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ThreadId | Gets the thread this DispatcherObject is associated with. Returns NoThreadId when this object is not attached to any thread. |
Dependency Property Reflection Property
Attached Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| CustomVisualStateManager | Gets or sets the VisualStateManager object that transitions between the states of a control |
| VisualStateGroups | Gets or sets a collection of VisualStateGroup objects |
Methods
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| GoToElementState(root, stateName, useTransitions) | Transitions the element between two states. Use this method to transition states that are defined by an application, rather than defined by a control. |
| GoToState(control, stateName, useTransitions) |
|
From DependencyObject
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ClearAnimation(dp) | Clears the animation value of a property |
| ClearLocalValue(dp) | Clears the local value of a property The property to be cleared is specified by a DependencyProperty identifier |
| CoerceValue(dp) | Coerces and validates the effective property value |
| DependencyPropertyChanged() | Returns the PropertyChanged event |
| Destroyed() | Destroyed delegate is raised when object is going to be destroyed |
| GetBaseValue(dp) | Returns the base value without animation nor coerce (this never returns Expression like GetLocalValue) |
| GetExpression(dp) | Gets the expression, if any, used to evaluate the specified property value |
| GetLocalValue(dp) | Returns the local value of a dependency property, if it exists |
| GetValue(dp) | Returns the current effective value of a dependency property on this instance of a DependencyObject |
| GetValueObject(dp) | Returns the current effective value of a dependency property on this instance of a DependencyObject as a boxed value |
| GetValueProvider(dp) | Gets the provider that returns the effective value for the specified dependency property |
| HasAnimatedProperties() | Returns true if there is any animated property |
| InvalidateProperty(dp, priority) | Re-evaluates the effective value for the specified dependency property if necessary If null is passed, a full re-evaluation could be needed |
| IsCached(dp, provider) | Returns if the value is stored in the cache. If true, the priority is returned in the provider field |
| IsSealed() | Gets a value that indicates whether this instance is currently sealed (read-only) |
| SetAnimation(dp, value) | Sets the animated value of a property |
| SetCurrentValue(dp, value) | Sets the current value of a dependency property. The current value is set on the coerce field, without modifying source or animated value |
| SetCurrentValueObject(dp, value) | Sets the current value of a dependency property using a boxed value |
| SetExpression(dp, expression) | Sets the expression to be evaluated dynamically to obtain the value of the property |
| SetValue(dp, value) | Sets the local value of a dependency property |
| SetValueObject(dp, value) | Sets the local value (boxed) of a dependency property |
From DispatcherObject
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| CheckAccess() | Determines whether the calling thread has access to this DispatcherObject |
| VerifyAccess() | Enforces that the calling thread has access to this DispatcherObject |
