I'm having trouble understanding why easing isn't working in my app. As a test I created a very simple app in Blend and it doesn't work there either. My test app is below. The animation of the Border works fine but there is no easing. What am I missing?

The first animation has an Easing KeyTime set to zero seconds, which will appear to have no animation and may explain why it appears to not be working. The second animation appears to be working, by dragging the border from the left side of the screen to the right in one second.

In Excel, when you press Ctrl+C, the current cell is surrounded by a rectangle with broken line seemingly running around. Any tip on how to make it in WPF?
What you're looking for is usually called a "Marching Ants Border". There are already a few implementations out there for WPF.
Here is one from Patric Johansson's blog and another from codeproject

I have an Image icon inside a StackPanel that's inside a ListBox and I want to animate it using a translate behaviour so that it does a "bounce".

But when it moves up, the top portion of the image gets clipped inside its listbox parent's boundaries.
Is there a property I can tweak to have it overlap over the boundaries while its animating?
Thanks!
You need to make your parent Grid bigger.
Try giving the StackPanel a Margin of 22.

I don't know how to link successfully a StoryBoard to a TranslateTransform that is part of a ContentControl. I always get the following error when I try to run my StoryBoard:
'RenderTransform' property does not point to a DependencyObject in path '(Children).[0].(Content).(0).(1)'.
I guess I don't know how to define a TargetProperty properly! I tried many different paths but always failed. Here is a simplified version of my code:
The DataTemplate:
<DataTemplate x:Key="bdAnswer">
<Border>
<Border.RenderTransform>
<TranslateTransform X="0" Y="0"/>
</Border.RenderTransform>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
The Canvas where the DataTemplate is used:
<Canvas x:Name="cnvGame">
<ContentControl ContentTemplate="{StaticResource bdAnswer}" />
<ContentControl ContentTemplate="{StaticResource bdAnswer}" />
</Canvas>
And my StoryBoard:
<Storyboard x:Key="sbGame">
<DoubleAnimationUsingKeyFrames
BeginTime="00:00:00"
Storyboard.TargetName="cnvGame"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Children)[0].(Content).(UIElement.RenderTransform).(TranslateTransform.Y)" />
</Storyboard>
Many thanks!
That all depends on how you intend to trigger that Storyboard. You were kind of vague, so it might not fit your situation. Everything is contained within the DataTrigger, everything is within the same scope and ascertaining that translate Y property is easy this way.

New to WPF. Simple scenario. Can't figure out the right way to do this.
Say I have a single Button. I also have four TextBlocks. I want that one button to trigger an animation (Opacity from 0 to 1) on all of the TextBlocks at the same time.
Thanks in advance!
This should do it...
