Transition from one page to another in Silverlight

Question

While using Silverlight, if you have a lot of pages, what are the techniques that can be used for transition from one page to another.

Basically, I want to create a MainPage that would have different sections, let's say TopLeft, TopRight, BottomRight, MainArea. These different sections will load different pages with a transition.

Edit> I think the question was not as clear at it could have been... I want to get an "effect" while another page loads in the same area. Something like "slide in", "slide out", etc.

Any suggestions?

You could use the deep linking mechanism in Silverlight which is based on the hash part of the URL (#) to perform navigation without reloading the hosting page.

Check the Fluid Layout
