Summary

Shows how to animate Windows Phone orientation changes.

Excerpt

"As computing devices have become more powerful, the trend has been toward more "fluid" user interfaces - interaction models that flow smoothly from one state to another. This differs from earlier approaches where resources were more limited and interactions tended to be Spartan and isolated from each another. Some of the motivation behind an increased focus on fluid UI is almost certainly the "wow" factor; modern interfaces can be quite attractive and fun to use! But there's also scientific research to back this up: people tend to find smooth transitions less disruptive to their workflow than abrupt ones - and the animation itself can help tie the "before" and "after" states together by showing how one becomes the other."
