LottieSharp

👁 Logo
 Play LottieFiles in your WPF application

LottieSharp is built for WPF applications only. It targets .NET 8 and .NET Framework 4.7 and is built using SkiaSharp and Skottie.

What can I do with LottieSharp?

You can load lottie animations and play them in your applications, creating beautiful UIs.

👁 Demo in Action

PS.: Screen cast by: http://recordit.co/

How to start?

Add LottieSharp to your application:

PM> Install-Package LottieSharp -Version 2.4.3

Reference LottieSharp in your XAML Window/Page/UserControl:

xmlns:lottie="clr-namespace:LottieSharp.WPF;assembly=LottieSharp"

Add a LottieAnimationView control. Set properties as you wish:

<lottie:LottieAnimationView
 Width="200"
 Height="300"
 HorizontalAlignment="Center"
 VerticalAlignment="Center"
 AutoPlay="True"
 FileName="{Binding Path=SelectedAsset.FilePath}"
 RepeatCount="-1" />

With images/my-resource-animation.json Resource in the application project file:

<lottie:LottieAnimationView
 Width="200"
 Height="300"
 HorizontalAlignment="Center"
 VerticalAlignment="Center"
 AutoPlay="True"
 ResourcePath="pack://application:,,,/images/my-resource-animation.json"
 RepeatCount="-1" />

When a lottie animation is small and you need it bigger, there's no need to edit the lottie file. Now we apply a scale to it.

<lottie:LottieAnimationView
 Width="200"
 Height="300"
 HorizontalAlignment="Center"
 VerticalAlignment="Center"
 AutoPlay="True"
 ResourcePath="pack://application:,,,/images/my-resource-animation.json"
 RepeatCount="-1">
 <lottie:LottieAnimationView.AnimationScale>
 <transforms:CenterTransform ScaleX="1.5" ScaleY="1.5" />
 </lottie:LottieAnimationView.AnimationScale>
</lottie:LottieAnimationView>

CenterTransform scales the animation within its center automatically. If you need a different position use the AnimationTransformBase.

<lottie:LottieAnimationView
 Width="200"
 Height="300"
 HorizontalAlignment="Center"
 VerticalAlignment="Center"
 AutoPlay="True"
 ResourcePath="pack://application:,,,/images/my-resource-animation.json"
 RepeatCount="-1">
 <lottie:LottieAnimationView.AnimationScale>
 <transforms:AnimationTransformBase
 CenterX="0"
 CenterY="1"
 ScaleX="2"
 ScaleY="2" />
 </lottie:LottieAnimationView.AnimationScale>
</lottie:LottieAnimationView>

Version 2.4.3

Fixed #74, downgrade to Skiasharp 2.88.9, this fixes the issue that the library can't be used without warnings if the TargetFramework is not set to net8.0-windows10.0.19041 or higher (i.e. specific Windows SDK version). Fixed #75, small memory leak in setting animation from resource.

Version 2.4.2

(High cpu usage when control is invisible or not enabled)Play/Stop animation when control isn't visible or enable. Updated Skiasharp

Version 2.4.0

Adds support to .NET 8. Updated to Skiasharp 2.88.8

Version 2.3.0

Adds support to .NET Framework 4.7.

Version 2.2.0

Adds support for scaling the animation. Adds support to AnyCPU. Updated to latest SkiaSharp references.

Version 2.1.0

Adds support for loading a Resource stream with a pack://application URI. Using both FileName and ResourcePath properties is ambigous.

Version 2.0.1

Fixed issue #57. Fixed issue with animation details not being displayed in databinding.

Properties, Methods and Events

Properties Values Description
AutoPlay True, False When true, the animation file is automatically played and it is loaded
FileName string Path to the Lottie file. This property can be used in databind (see demo app)
ResourcePath string Resource path to the Lottie file. This property can be used in databind (see demo app splash screen)
RepeatCount -1..N How many times the animation will repeat after once played. The default is 0, meaning it doesn't repeat. -1 means it repeats forever.
IsPlaying True, False Represents the current aninaation status.
AnimationScale AnimationTransformBase Applies a custom scale to the loaded lottie animation. See CenterTransform above
Events Description
EventHandler OnStop It's triggered when animation stops, however if RepeatCount is forever this event isn't triggered.
Methods Description
PlayAnimation() Starts the animation
StopAnimation() Stops the animation

Next steps

This is the first release with basic features but very functional. For next releases I want to:

  • Improve player mechanism
  • Add reverse mode

Questions?

Why Lottie?

Lottie enables us to easily include beautiful and performant vector animations in applications. Since Lottie animations are exported as JSON files, file sizes remain >small and animations can easily be resized and looped with without losing quality. So, no more heavy videos or gifs!

Where do I find lottie animations?

There are many FREE files you can use. Visit LottieFiles website, there are a huge community for lottie!

How do I create my own animations?

  1. Adober effects, see this post
  2. Framer
  3. And others... see this post
