Link to Karen Corby’s excellent 4 part series on the Parts & State Model (great preparation for the August 27 Webcast ) Why couldn’t we animate the Border? You will remember that I was unable to animate the border thickness in my impromptu demonstration of in-state animation. Had I looked at the documentation, I would quickly have found that the border thickness is read-only! Fortunately we were able to animate the opacity which actually gave a more satisfying effect.
