Animation memory leak

Suppose I have a Ellipse UIElement which includes an animation object, and it be added and removed every 15 seconds at runtime, the problem is that I can’t clear the animation’s memory when the Ellipse UIElement be removed, Do you have any idea?

The below is the xaml code: <Ellipse x:Name="ellipse387_229_13_13_1015" Canvas.Left="387" Canvas.Top="229" Width="13" Height="13" Stroke="#ff6e05" StrokeThickness="1" Fill="#ff6e05" > <Ellipse.Triggers> <EventTrigger RoutedEvent="Ellipse.Loaded"> <BeginStoryboard> <Storyboard x:Name="storyboard_ellipse387_229_13_13_1015" > <ColorAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetName="ellipse387_229_13_13_1015" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Fill).(Color)" BeginTime="0:0:0" RepeatBehavior="30x" > <DiscreteColorKeyFrame KeyTime="0:0:1" Value="#000000" /> <DiscreteColorKeyFrame KeyTime="0:0:2" Value="#ff6e05" /> </ColorAnimationUsingKeyFrames> </Storyboard> </BeginStoryboard> </EventTrigger> </Ellipse.Triggers>

</Ellipse>

Regards,

Hello, can you post some code on how you remove the Ellipse? The memory will be collected by GC at a proper time if the Ellipse is no longer referenced by anything. But without seeing your code, it's very hard to say nothing still references the Ellipse...

shanaolanxing - I'll transfer to the Windows Azure team, and will have limited time to participate in the Silverlight forum. Apologize if I don't answer your questions in time.
