I pretty much know the answer but is it possible to virtualize the AnimatedWrapPanel? I believe the answer is no because according to the Virtualization section of the help...setting VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing = True only works for a PropertyGrid. I tried the following without sucess.
<ListBox>
<ListBox.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<views:AnimatedWrapPanel Orientation="Horziontal" IsEmptySpaceEvenlyDistrubuted="True" VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing="True" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemsPanel>
</ListBox>
<ListBox>
<ListBox.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<views:AnimatedWrapPanel Orientation="Horziontal" IsEmptySpaceEvenlyDistrubuted="True" VirtualizingPanel.IsVirtualizing="True" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemsPanel>
</ListBox>
There is a Virtualizing WrapPanel on CodePlex. (https://virtualwrappanel.codeplex.com/)
I think having the ability to virtualize the AnimatedWrapPanel, and other Actipro Panels, would be a great addition to the API.
