WPF Animation Duration

Question

I have a storyboard like the following

Duration="0:0:1" Completed="DeviceExplorer_Completed">

The animation for some reason does not appear to be working linearly. If I change the duration to something like Duration="0:0:0.8"

and assign the stroyboard to a MouseEnter event of a button, the animation moves but does not complete for some reason, I move my mouse over the button a few times before it enetually completes...

Any ideas why?

You have to set the duration on the animation and not the storyboard. The animation will default to a duration of 1 second if not set and the storyboard is ending in less time than that so the animation gets cut short by whatever length of time is the difference. When you put the duration on the animation it should work fine.
