Solution 1

Yes, You can. You need to set a Key (resource key) for your StoryBoard animation while designing a StoryBoard in XAML. Access it from codebehind using TryFindResource function. Then call BeginAnimation().

Solution 3

This will work better in most cases :

C#

Storyboard myStoryboard = (Storyboard)(this.FindName("myStoryboard"));
myStoryboard.Begin();
