Keep certain Objects from scaling

Question

I have a WPF Canvas with a few objects on it and I apply a ScaleTransform animation to it (Zoom). As expected all objects scale with the canvas.

It is possible that some objects remain their size even if they are children of the canvas?

So far my only idea is another scale animation running in the opposite direction to scale to objects down again.

Answer 1

Simply put, no. the ScaleTransform will catch an element, and all it's children. You can only resort to tricks like you suggested.
