Color Animation in LinearGradientBrush using XAML

This code snippet below creates a Canvas control on a Grid.

The Canvas control is filled with a LinearGradientBrush with 5 different colors and color stops.

On Windows.Triggers, we add a trigger on Window.Loaded event and using a StoryBoard, we add ColorAnimation on each GradientStop and change color for current color to next color in the Gradient Stops.
