UseScaling Property

Returns/sets whether ScalingEffectStops and ScalingEffectStopDirection should be honored and scaling effects applied to items in the Carousel. The default is True.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property UseScaling As Boolean
public bool UseScaling {get; set;}
Remarks

When this property is set to false, any ScalingEffectStops that may be defined are ignored.

Note: The PathItemTransitionStyle property can be used to apply additional effects to items as they transition into and out of view through the prefix and suffix areas of the ItemPath.

Example
In the following example, the UseScaling property has been set to true so that the ScalingEffectStops provided will be used when arranging the panel items. Since the ScalingEffectStopDirection is set to UseItemPath, the offsets specified in the ScalingEffectStop instances will be based on their position along the path with items about 80% along the path being scaled largest and items at each end of that percent having a decreasingly smaller scale.
