1. Element.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);  
2. Element.RenderTransform = new RotateTransform();  
3. DoubleAnimation da = new DoubleAnimation  
4. {  
5.   From = 0,  
6.   To = 360,  
7.   Duration = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5)  
8. };  
9. Storyboard.SetTarget(da, Element.RenderTransform);  
10. Storyboard.SetTargetProperty(da, new PropertyPath(RotateTransform.AngleProperty));  
11. Storyboard sb = new Storyboard();  
12. sb.Children.Add(da);  
13. sb.Begin();  

   Element.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
   Element.RenderTransform = new RotateTransform();
   DoubleAnimation da = new DoubleAnimation
   {
     From = 0,
     To = 360,
     Duration = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5)
   };
   Storyboard.SetTarget(da, Element.RenderTransform);
   Storyboard.SetTargetProperty(da, new PropertyPath(RotateTransform.AngleProperty));
   Storyboard sb = new Storyboard();
   sb.Children.Add(da);
   sb.Begin();
