Load animation of a silverlight toolkit chart

Hello,

How do you stop the load animation of a chart?  By default the data points fade in when the graph is loaded and I don't want this to happen.

Thank you.

 Yea I would also be interested in turning off or modifying the data point animation on the chart... I dont like when I add points to the graph that those little points show up slowly, when I have a lotta points it totally makes the graph ugly

You can set it so the data points are hidden.  This doesn't solve my problem but it might help with yours.  I don't know if there is an easier way to do this, as I am still very new to Silverlight, but if you create a style for the data points you can set the visibility to collasped.  That should help if you don't need to see the exact data point.

This was how I hid the points:

<chartingToolkit:LineSeries.DataPointStyle>

<Style TargetType="Control">

<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>

</Style>

</chartingToolkit:LineSeries.DataPointStyle>

I hope this helps you.  I am also using bar graphs and pie charts, which is why I want to know how to turn the animation off.
