Custom UIButton Causes Storyboard Agent Crash Swift - swift

I created a custom UIButton class and it causing the storyboard agent to fail.
I'm Including my extensions cause I really don't know what the problem is.
I tried to debug this view from the storyboard but it sends me straight to assembly code.
I tried to make it a without #IBDesignable, but it still cause a crash.
Also if you tips for improving how I'm writing my class I'll be glad to hear them.
I'll be glad if you can help me
This is my class:
#IBDesignable class customButton: UIButton{
private let imagesPadding: CGFloat = 2
private var ArrowSymbleImageView: UIImageView!
#IBInspectable var iconImageInspectable: UIImage = UIImage(systemName: "globe")!{
willSet {
if (ArrowSymbleImageView != nil) {
ArrowSymbleImageView.image = newValue
}
}
}
#IBInspectable var BackgroundColorInspectable: UIColor = .white {
willSet {
self.backgroundColor = newValue
if (ArrowSymbleImageView != nil) {
if (self.BackgroundColorInspectable.isDarkColor) {
ArrowSymbleImageView.tintColor = .white
}else{
ArrowSymbleImageView.tintColor = .black
}
}
}
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
self.generalInit()
}
private func generalDeinit() {
ArrowSymbleImageView.removeFromSuperview()
}
private func generalInit() {
self.backgroundColor = self.BackgroundColorInspectable
self.roundCorners(corners: [.bottomLeft], radius: self.width() / 2 * 0.7)
self.dropShadow()
let sizePartFromView: CGFloat = 4
ArrowSymbleImageView = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: self.width() / 2 - (self.width() / sizePartFromView / 2),
y: self.height() / 2 - (self.height() / sizePartFromView / 2),
width: self.width() / sizePartFromView,
height: self.height() / sizePartFromView))
ArrowSymbleImageView.image = self.iconImageInspectable
if (self.BackgroundColorInspectable.isDarkColor) {
ArrowSymbleImageView.tintColor = .white
}else{
ArrowSymbleImageView.tintColor = .black
}
ArrowSymbleImageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFill
self.addSubview(ArrowSymbleImageView)
}
}
internal extension UIView {
func roundCorners(corners: UIRectCorner, radius: CGFloat) {
let path = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: bounds, byRoundingCorners: corners, cornerRadii: CGSize(width: radius, height: radius))
let mask = CAShapeLayer()
mask.path = path.cgPath
layer.mask = mask
}
}
internal extension UIView {
func dropShadow(scale: Bool = true, size: CGSize = CGSize(width: -2, height: 2)) {
layer.masksToBounds = false
layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
layer.shadowOpacity = 0.5
layer.shadowOffset = size
layer.shadowRadius = 1
layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(rect: bounds).cgPath
layer.shouldRasterize = true
layer.rasterizationScale = scale ? UIScreen.main.scale : 1
}
func dropShadow(color: UIColor, opacity: Float = 0.5, offSet: CGSize, radius: CGFloat = 1, scale: Bool = true) {
layer.masksToBounds = false
layer.shadowColor = color.cgColor
layer.shadowOpacity = opacity
layer.shadowOffset = offSet
layer.shadowRadius = radius
layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(rect: self.bounds).cgPath
layer.shouldRasterize = true
layer.rasterizationScale = scale ? UIScreen.main.scale : 1
}
}
internal extension UIColor
{
var isDarkColor: Bool {
var r, g, b, a: CGFloat
(r, g, b, a) = (0, 0, 0, 0)
self.getRed(&r, green: &g, blue: &b, alpha: &a)
let lum = 0.2126 * r + 0.7152 * g + 0.0722 * b
return lum < 0.50 ? true : false
}
}

I noticed this:
UIImage(systemName: "globe")!
Is there a reason why you instantiate a custom image this way? Is "globe" an apple provided default image?
You should be really using, if this isn't a default image.
UIImage(named:"globe")!

Dont use Force unwrapping when you do not have confirmation about data always use optional binding and do change following line in code from this UIImage(systemName: "globe")! to UIImage(named:"globe")! .

The background mask cuts off part of the foreground layer

Recently ran into a problem in one of my tasks. I tried to solve this problem for two days. Finally I came here.
I have a custom progress view. Don't look at the colors, they are so awful just for the debugging process to see better.
[the look I have now] 1
[the look I want to have] 2
As you can see, there is a red dot at the end of the progress layer, but it is cut at the top and bottom ...
And it shouldn't be like that ...
Also I will leave here all the code I have, maybe someone
can help me.
Thank you all in advance for your time.
import UIKit
class PlainProgressBar: UIView {
//MARK: - Private
//colour of progress layer : default -> white
private var color: UIColor = .white {
didSet { setNeedsDisplay() }
}
// progress numerical value
private var progress: CGFloat = 0.0 {
didSet { setNeedsDisplay() }
}
private var height : CGFloat = 0.0 {
didSet{ setNeedsDisplay() }
}
private let progressLayer = CALayer()
private let dotLayer = CALayer()
private let backgroundMask = CAShapeLayer()
private func setupLayers() {
layer.addSublayer(progressLayer)
layer.addSublayer(dotLayer)
}

override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
backgroundMask.path = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: CGRect(origin: .zero, size: CGSize(width: rect.width, height: height)), cornerRadius: rect.height * 0.25).cgPath
layer.mask = backgroundMask
let dotOnProgressLayer = CGRect(origin: .zero, size: CGSize(width: 10.0, height: 10.0))
let progressRect = CGRect(origin: .zero, size: CGSize(width: rect.width * progress, height: height))
progressLayer.frame = progressRect
progressLayer.backgroundColor = color.cgColor
dotLayer.frame = dotOnProgressLayer
dotLayer.cornerRadius = dotLayer.bounds.width * 0.5
dotLayer.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.9254902005, green: 0.2352941185, blue: 0.1019607857, alpha: 1).cgColor
dotLayer.position = CGPoint(x: progressLayer.frame.width ,y: progressLayer.frame.height / 2)
}
}
progressView.set(height: 4.5)
progressView.setColor(progressLayer: UIColor(ciColor: .green))
You are masking the views layer with
layer.mask = backgroundMask
So anything outside the mask will no be drawn.

Swift: Make the outline of a UIView sketch-like

I want to make the outlines of a UIView look "wavey" like someone drew them.
I have this example from PowerPoint, which allows to do it (should work with any size and corner radius):
Currently this is what I have:
myView.layer.borderWidth = 10
myView.layer.borderColor = UIColor.blue.cgColor
myView.layer.cornerRadius = 5 // Optional
Thank
You can create "wavy" lines by using a UIBezierPath with a combination of quad-curves, lines, arcs, etc.
We'll start with a simple line, one-quarter of the width of the view:
Our path would consist of:
move to 0,0
add line to 80,0
If we change that to a quad-curve:
Now we're doing:
move to 0,0
add quad-curve to 80,0 with control point 40,40
If we add another quad-curve going the other way:
Now we're doing:
move to 0,0
add quad-curve to 80,0 with control point 40,40
add quad-curve to 160,0 with control point 120,-40
and we can extend that the width of the view:
of course, that doesn't look like your "sketch" target, so let's change the control-point offsets from 40 to 2:
Now it looks a bit more like a hand-draw "sketched" line.
It's too uniform, though, and it's partially outside the bounds of the view, so let's inset it by 8-pts and, instead of four 25% segments, we'll use (for example) five segments of these widths:
0.15, 0.2, 0.2, 0.27, 0.18
If we take the same approach to go down the right-hand side, back across the bottom, and up the left-hand side, we can get this:
Here's some example code to produce that view:
class SketchBorderView: UIView {
let borderLayer: CAShapeLayer = CAShapeLayer()
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
commonInit()
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
commonInit()
}
func commonInit() -> Void {
borderLayer.fillColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor
borderLayer.strokeColor = UIColor.blue.cgColor
layer.addSublayer(borderLayer)
backgroundColor = .yellow
}
override func layoutSubviews() {
let incrementVals: [CGFloat] = [
0.15, 0.2, 0.2, 0.27, 0.18,
]
let lineOffsets: [[CGFloat]] = [
[ 1.0, -2.0],
[-1.0, 2.0],
[-1.0, -2.0],
[ 1.0, 2.0],
[ 0.0, -2.0],
]
let pth: UIBezierPath = UIBezierPath()
// inset bounds by 8-pts so we can draw the "wavy border"
// inside our bounds
let r: CGRect = bounds.insetBy(dx: 8.0, dy: 8.0)
var ptDest: CGPoint = .zero
var ptControl: CGPoint = .zero
// start at top-left
ptDest = r.origin
pth.move(to: ptDest)
// we're at top-left
for i in 0..<incrementVals.count {
ptDest.x += r.width * incrementVals[i]
ptDest.y = r.minY + lineOffsets[i][0]
ptControl.x = pth.currentPoint.x + ((ptDest.x - pth.currentPoint.x) * 0.5)
ptControl.y = r.minY + lineOffsets[i][1]
pth.addQuadCurve(to: ptDest, controlPoint: ptControl)
}
// now we're at top-right
for i in 0..<incrementVals.count {
ptDest.y += r.height * incrementVals[i]
ptDest.x = r.maxX + lineOffsets[i][0]
ptControl.y = pth.currentPoint.y + ((ptDest.y - pth.currentPoint.y) * 0.5)
ptControl.x = r.maxX + lineOffsets[i][1]
pth.addQuadCurve(to: ptDest, controlPoint: ptControl)
}
// now we're at bottom-right
for i in 0..<incrementVals.count {
ptDest.x -= r.width * incrementVals[i]
ptDest.y = r.maxY + lineOffsets[i][0]
ptControl.x = pth.currentPoint.x - ((pth.currentPoint.x - ptDest.x) * 0.5)
ptControl.y = r.maxY + lineOffsets[i][1]
pth.addQuadCurve(to: ptDest, controlPoint: ptControl)
}
// now we're at bottom-left
for i in 0..<incrementVals.count {
ptDest.y -= r.height * incrementVals[i]
ptDest.x = r.minX + lineOffsets[i][0]
ptControl.y = pth.currentPoint.y - ((pth.currentPoint.y - ptDest.y) * 0.5)
ptControl.x = r.minX + lineOffsets[i][1]
pth.addQuadCurve(to: ptDest, controlPoint: ptControl)
}
borderLayer.path = pth.cgPath
}
}
and an example controller:
class SketchTestVC: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let v = SketchBorderView()
v.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
view.addSubview(v)
let g = view.safeAreaLayoutGuide
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
v.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: g.centerXAnchor),
v.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: g.centerYAnchor),
v.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 320.0),
v.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: v.widthAnchor),
])
}
}
Using that code, though, we still have too much uniformity, so in actual use we'd want to randomize the number of segments, the widths of the segments, and the control-point offsets.
Of course, to get your "rounded rect" you'd want to add arcs at the corners.
I expect this should get you on your way though.
use this extension to solve the issue

set {

it will look like this

Issue with CABasicAnimation

So basically I am trying to create dialogView. This dialogView will contain a loading spinner and some text which will be updated depending on the state. I followed two guides to use a CAShapeLayer to draw a circle and then animate a line around it.
Link to code/guides I followed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3ltwjDJaMk
https://github.com/vinayjn/Spinner/blob/master/Spinner.swift
Despite following most of these tutorials to the tee. My animation will not work. At the moment it just looks like this and will not spin.
class LoginDialogView: UIViewController {
lazy var loaderView: UIView = {
let loaderView = UIView()
loaderView.backgroundColor = .yellow
return loaderView
}()
lazy var dialogTitle : UILabel = {
let dialogTitle = UILabel()
dialogTitle.text = "Apples"
dialogTitle.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 24.0)
dialogTitle.textAlignment = .left
dialogTitle.numberOfLines = 1
return dialogTitle

return layer
}
}
I have looked over and compared the code a couple times and I can't see what I did that was different. So my question is can anyone look over this code and figure out what I did wrong? and Can anyone recommend a safe way to stop this animation that wouldn't cause any potential memory leaks?
Im using ios 13 and xcode 11.3.1
You are not adding the animation to the shape layer; you added it to the container view's layer. Keep a reference to your trackLayer and add the animation to that layer.
class LoginDialogView: UIViewController {
lazy var loaderView: UIView = {
let loaderView = UIView()
loaderView.backgroundColor = .yellow
return loaderView
}()
var trackLayer: CAShapeLayer?
...
...
...
private func setupCircleLayers() {
trackLayer = createCircleShapeLayer(strokeColor: UIColor(red: 56/255,
green: 25/255,
blue: 49/255,
alpha: 1),
fillColor: #colorLiteral(red: 0.9686274529, green: 0.78039217, blue: 0.3450980484, alpha: 1))
loaderView.layer.addSublayer(trackLayer!)
startAnimating()
}
...
...
...
private func animateRing(){
let rotationAnimation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "strokeEnd")
rotationAnimation.fromValue = 0 * (CGFloat.pi / 180)
rotationAnimation.toValue = 360 * (CGFloat.pi / 180)
rotationAnimation.duration = 1.6
rotationAnimation.repeatCount = HUGE
trackLayer.add(rotationAnimation, forKey: "strokeEnd")
}
...
...
...
}
Note: ... in the above code refers to the truncated portion of your code.

Color animation

I've written simple animations for drawing rectangles in lines, we can treat them as a bars.
Each bar is one shape layer which has a path which animates ( size change and fill color change ).
#IBDesignable final class BarView: UIView {
lazy var pathAnimation: CABasicAnimation = {
let animation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "path")
animation.duration = 1
animation.timingFunction = CAMediaTimingFunction(name: kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut)
animation.fillMode = kCAFillModeBoth
animation.isRemovedOnCompletion = false
return animation
}()
let red = UIColor(red: 249/255, green: 26/255, blue: 26/255, alpha: 1)
let orange = UIColor(red: 1, green: 167/255, blue: 463/255, alpha: 1)
let green = UIColor(red: 106/255, green: 239/255, blue: 47/255, alpha: 1)
lazy var backgroundColorAnimation: CABasicAnimation = {
let animation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "fillColor")
animation.duration = 1
animation.fromValue = red.cgColor
animation.byValue = orange.cgColor
animation.toValue = green.cgColor
animation.timingFunction = CAMediaTimingFunction(name: kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut)
animation.fillMode = kCAFillModeBoth
animation.isRemovedOnCompletion = false
return animation
}()
#IBInspectable var spaceBetweenBars: CGFloat = 10
var numberOfBars: Int = 5
let data: [CGFloat] = [5.5, 9.0, 9.5, 3.0, 8.0]
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
initSublayers()
}
override func layoutSubviews() {
super.layoutSubviews()
setupLayers()
}
func setupLayers() {
let width = bounds.width - (spaceBetweenBars * CGFloat(numberOfBars + 1)) // There is n + 1 spaces between bars.
let barWidth: CGFloat = width / CGFloat(numberOfBars)
let scalePoint: CGFloat = bounds.height / 10.0 // 10.0 - 10 points is max
guard let sublayers = layer.sublayers as? [CAShapeLayer] else { return }
for i in 0...numberOfBars - 1 {
let barHeight: CGFloat = scalePoint * data[i]
let shapeLayer = CAShapeLayer()
layer.addSublayer(shapeLayer)
var xPos: CGFloat!
if i == 0 {
xPos = spaceBetweenBars
} else if i == numberOfBars - 1 {
xPos = bounds.width - (barWidth + spaceBetweenBars)
} else {
xPos = barWidth * CGFloat(i) + spaceBetweenBars * CGFloat(i) + spaceBetweenBars
}
let startPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: xPos, y: bounds.height, width: barWidth, height: 0)).cgPath
let endPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: xPos, y: bounds.height, width: barWidth, height: -barHeight)).cgPath
sublayers[i].path = startPath
pathAnimation.toValue = endPath
sublayers[i].removeAllAnimations()
sublayers[i].add(pathAnimation, forKey: "path")
sublayers[i].add(backgroundColorAnimation, forKey: "backgroundColor")
}
}
func initSublayers() {
for _ in 1...numberOfBars {
let shapeLayer = CAShapeLayer()
layer.addSublayer(shapeLayer)
}
}
}
The size ( height ) of bar depends of the data array, each sublayers has a different height. Based on this data I've crated a scale.
PathAnimation is changing height of the bars.
BackgroundColorAnimation is changing the collors of the path. It starts from red one, goes through the orange and finish at green.
My goal is to connect backgroundColorAnimation with data array as well as it's connected with pathAnimation.
Ex. When in data array is going to be value 1.0 then the bar going to be animate only to the red color which is a derivated from a base red color which is declared as a global variable. If the value in the data array going to be ex. 4.5 then the color animation will stop close to the delcared orange color, the 5.0 limit going to be this orange color or color close to this. Value closer to 10 going to be green.
How could I connect these conditions with animation properties fromValue, byValue, toValue. Is it an algorithm for that ? Any ideas ?
You have several problems.
You're setting fillMode and isRemovedOnCompletion. This tells me, to be blunt, that you don't understand Core Animation. You need to watch WWDC 2011 Session 421: Core Animation Essentials.
You're adding more layers every time layoutSubviews is called, but not doing anything with them.
You're adding animation every time layoutSubviews runs. Do you really want to re-animate the bars when the double-height “in-call” status bar appears or disappears, or on an interface rotation? It's probably better to have a separate animateBars() method, and call it from your view controller's viewDidAppear method.
You seem to think byValue means “go through this value on the way from fromValue to toValue”, but that's not what it means. byValue is ignored in your case, because you're setting fromValue and toValue. The effects of byValue are explained in Setting Interpolation Values.
If you want to interpolate between colors, it's best to use a hue-based color space, but I believe Core Animation uses an RGB color space. So you should use a keyframe animation to specify intermediate colors that you calculate by interpolating in a hue-based color space.
Here's a rewrite of BarView that fixes all these problems:
#IBDesignable final class BarView: UIView {

let colors = gradient.colors(from: 0, to: t, count: frames).map({ $0.cgColor })
let colorAnimation = CAKeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "fillColor")

Why doesn't UIView.animateWithDuration affect this custom view?

I designed a custom header view that masks an image and draws a border on the bottom edge, which is an arc. It looks like this:
Here's the code for the class:
class HeaderView: UIView
{
private let imageView = UIImageView()
private let dimmerView = UIView()
private let arcShape = CAShapeLayer()
private let maskShape = CAShapeLayer() // Masks the image and the dimmer
private let titleLabel = UILabel()
#IBInspectable var image: UIImage? { didSet { self.imageView.image = self.image } }
#IBInspectable var title: String? { didSet {self.titleLabel.text = self.title} }
#IBInspectable var arcHeight: CGFloat? { didSet {self.setupLayers()} }
// MARK: Initialization
override init(frame: CGRect)
{
super.init(frame:frame)
initMyStuff()
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder)
{
super.init(coder:aDecoder)
initMyStuff()
}
override func prepareForInterfaceBuilder()
{
backgroundColor = UIColor.clear()
}
internal func initMyStuff()
{
backgroundColor = UIColor.clear()
titleLabel.font = Font.AvenirNext_Bold(24)
titleLabel.text = "TITLE"
titleLabel.textColor = UIColor.white()
titleLabel.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black().cgColor
titleLabel.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0.0, height: 2.0)
titleLabel.layer.shadowRadius = 0.0;
titleLabel.layer.shadowOpacity = 1.0;
titleLabel.layer.masksToBounds = false
titleLabel.layer.shouldRasterize = true
imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentMode.scaleAspectFill
addSubview(imageView)
dimmerView.frame = self.bounds
dimmerView.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 0.6)
addSubview(dimmerView)
addSubview(titleLabel)
// Add the shapes
self.layer.addSublayer(arcShape)
self.layer.addSublayer(maskShape)
self.layer.masksToBounds = true // This seems to be unneeded...test more
// Set constraints
imageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
imageView .autoPinEdgesToSuperviewEdges()
titleLabel.autoCenterInSuperview()
}
func setupLayers()
{
let aHeight = arcHeight ?? 10
// Create the arc shape
arcShape.path = AppocalypseUI.createHorizontalArcPath(CGPoint(x: 0, y: bounds.size.height), width: bounds.size.width, arcHeight: aHeight)
arcShape.strokeColor = UIColor.white().cgColor
arcShape.lineWidth = 1.0
arcShape.fillColor = UIColor.clear().cgColor
// Create the mask shape
let maskPath = AppocalypseUI.createHorizontalArcPath(CGPoint(x: 0, y: bounds.size.height), width: bounds.size.width, arcHeight: aHeight, closed: true)
maskPath.moveTo(nil, x: bounds.size.width, y: bounds.size.height)
maskPath.addLineTo(nil, x: bounds.size.width, y: 0)
maskPath.addLineTo(nil, x: 0, y: 0)
maskPath.addLineTo(nil, x: 0, y: bounds.size.height)
//let current = CGPathGetCurrentPoint(maskPath);
//print(current)
let mask_Dimmer = CAShapeLayer()
mask_Dimmer.path = maskPath.copy()
maskShape.fillColor = UIColor(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 1.0).cgColor
maskShape.path = maskPath
// Apply the masks
imageView.layer.mask = maskShape
dimmerView.layer.mask = mask_Dimmer
}
override func layoutSubviews()
{
super.layoutSubviews()
// Let's go old school here...
imageView.frame = self.bounds
dimmerView.frame = self.bounds
setupLayers()
}
}
Something like this will cause it to just snap to the new size without gradually changing its frame:
UIView.animate(withDuration: 1.0)
{
self.headerView.arcHeight = self.new_headerView_arcHeight
self.headerView.frame = self.new_headerView_frame
}
I figure it must have something to do with the fact that I'm using CALayers, but I don't really know enough about what's going on behind the scenes.
EDIT:
Here's the function I use to create the arc path:
class func createHorizontalArcPath(_ startPoint:CGPoint, width:CGFloat, arcHeight:CGFloat, closed:Bool = false) -> CGMutablePath
{
// http://www.raywenderlich.com/33193/core-graphics-tutorial-arcs-and-paths
let arcRect = CGRect(x: startPoint.x, y: startPoint.y-arcHeight, width: width, height: arcHeight)
let arcRadius = (arcRect.size.height/2) + (pow(arcRect.size.width, 2) / (8*arcRect.size.height));
let arcCenter = CGPoint(x: arcRect.origin.x + arcRect.size.width/2, y: arcRect.origin.y + arcRadius);
let angle = acos(arcRect.size.width / (2*arcRadius));
let startAngle = CGFloat(M_PI)+angle // (180 degrees + angle)
let endAngle = CGFloat(M_PI*2)-angle // (360 degrees - angle)
// let startAngle = radians(180) + angle;
// let endAngle = radians(360) - angle;
let path = CGMutablePath();
path.addArc(nil, x: arcCenter.x, y: arcCenter.y, radius: arcRadius, startAngle: startAngle, endAngle: endAngle, clockwise: false);
if(closed == true)
{path.addLineTo(nil, x: startPoint.x, y: startPoint.y);}
return path;
}
BONUS:
Setting the arcHeight property to 0 results in no white line being drawn. Why?
The Path property can't be animated. You have to approach the problem differently. You can draw an arc 'instantly', any arc, so that tells us that we need to handle the animation manually. If you expect the entire draw process to take say 3 seconds, then you might want to split the process to 1000 parts, and call the arc drawing function 1000 times every 0.3 miliseconds to draw the arc again from the beginning to the current point.
self.headerView.arcHeight is not a animatable property. It is only UIView own properties are animatable
you can do something like this
let displayLink = CADisplayLink(target: self, selector: #selector(update))
displayLink.addToRunLoop(NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop(), forMode: NSDefaultRunLoopMode
let expectedFramesPerSecond = 60
var diff : CGFloat = 0
func update() {
let diffUpdated = self.headerView.arcHeight - self.new_headerView_arcHeight
let done = (fabs(diffUpdated) < 0.1)
if(!done){
self.headerView.arcHeight -= diffUpdated/(expectedFramesPerSecond*0.5)
self.setNeedsDisplay()
}
}
