In WPF toolkit datagrid I have a data trigger bound to opacity of cell element.
When UpVisibility changes to 1 the path become visible and the animation starts to fade it to 0. Which works.
However my problem now - if I need to prematurely stop/cancel the fading and am setting UpVisibility to 0 the Path is still visible and fading as nothing happened....
How to drop opacity to 0 instantly using MyValue object ?
<Path Data="M 5,0 0,10 10,10" Height="10" Width="10" Fill="Green" Opacity="{Binding MyValue[0].UpVisibility}" Margin="5,0,5,0">
    <Path.Style>
        <Style>
            <Style.Triggers>
                <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding MyValue[0].UpVisibility}" Value="1.0">
                    <DataTrigger.EnterActions>
                        <BeginStoryboard>
                            <Storyboard>
                                <DoubleAnimation Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity" From="1.0" To="0.0" Duration="0:0:10" />
                            </Storyboard>
                        </BeginStoryboard>
                    </DataTrigger.EnterActions>
                </DataTrigger>
            </Style.Triggers>
        </Style>
    </Path.Style> 
</Path>
                Storyboards can also be stopped using the ExitAction on a DataTrigger, which is called when the bound value changes out of the target state. Just give your BeginStoryboard a name, and reference it in a StopStoryboard action, like so:
<DataTrigger.EnterActions>
    <BeginStoryboard Name="your_storyboard_name">
        ...
    </BeginStoryboard>
</DataTrigger.EnterActions>
<DataTrigger.ExitActions>
    <StopStoryboard BeginStoryboardName="your_storyboard_name" />
</DataTrigger.ExitActions>
This may be more appropriate than starting a second storyboard to stop or mask a different storyboard.
