So, I have read in the docs, that use of blocks like
beginAnimation
commitAnimation
is discouraged from os4.0.
So I have tried to get my code to work by using CABasicAnimation. I want to achieve, that an image's frame is resized from its thumbnail size, somewhere within my view, to a full width position e.g. (0, 120, 320, 240) - on my iPhone.
What I have so far:
[CATransaction begin];
[CATransaction setValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0] forKey:kCATransactionAnimationDuration];
CABasicAnimation *scalingAnimation;
scalingAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform"];
scalingAnimation.duration=1.0/2;
scalingAnimation.autoreverses=YES;
scalingAnimation.timingFunction = [CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseOut];
scalingAnimation.fromValue=[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:CATransform3DMakeScale(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)];
scalingAnimation.toValue=[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:CATransform3DMakeScale(4, 4, 1)];
[b.layer addAnimation:scalingAnimation forKey:#"scaling"];
[CATransaction commit];
My nextstep would be to first try to move the image to a centered position then scale it to the correct size. However, I doubt I'm doin it the right way. Can anyone comment on my code/approach.... is there a better way?
Am pretty sure you have solved this by now, but in any case.
You shouldn't need the [CATransaction begin]; and [CATransaction commit];
The simplest way that I have found to do this kind of thing is to use CAAnimationGroup and and add the animations one by one.
An example would be
CABasicAnimation *scaleX = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform.scale.x"];
//this is not used, as the group provides the duration
scaleX.duration = duration;
scaleX.autoreverses = NO;
scaleX.toValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0];
scaleX.fromValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:scaleFrom];
scaleX.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
scaleX.removedOnCompletion = NO;
CABasicAnimation *scaleY = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform.scale.y"];
//this is not used, as the group provides the duration
scaleY.duration = duration;
scaleY.autoreverses = NO;
scaleY.toValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0];
scaleY.fromValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:scaleFrom];
scaleY.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
scaleY.removedOnCompletion = NO;
//add in the translation animations
NSMutableArray* animationsArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:scaleX,
scaleY,
//and any other animations you want in the group
nil];
CAAnimationGroup *animationGroup = [CAAnimationGroup animation];
animationGroup.duration = 1.0/2;
animationGroup.timingFunction = [CAMediaTimingFunctionfunctionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseIn];
animationGroup.animations = animationsArray;
animationGroup.delegate = self;
animationGroup.removedOnCompletion = YES;
animationGroup.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
[animationGroup setValue:#"imageTransform" forKey:#"AnimationName"];
[b.layer addAnimation:animationGroup forKey:#"imageTransform"];
There are a few gotchas though. Animations are purely visual, so before running the animations, set your eventual view frame.
You will notice that the scales end at 1, this is to ensure that you dont end up with a scaled image layer. Instead we start it scaled and bring it back to normal.
Translations should be done in the same way.
Hope this helps
//in Event Method Copy Below code to place the image to the center

positionAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"position"];
positionAnimation.fromValue = [NSValue valueWithCGPoint:imageView.layer.position];

positionAnimation.duration = 2.0;
positionAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;

positionAnimation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
positionAnimation.delegate = self;

scaleAnimation.timingFunction = [CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseIn];
scaleAnimation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
scaleAnimation.delegate = self;
[imageView.layer addAnimation:scaleAnimation forKey:#"scaleAnimation"];
}
else
{
//if you want changes to image should remain forever
//place your code for scale & transform here
....................
//now simple remove animation from layer
[imageView.layer removeAllAnimations];
}
}
Cant you use
[UIView animateWithDuration:2.0
animations:^{
//animations
}
completion:^(BOOL finished){
// completion methods
}];
I have a CALayer A with one sublayer B
I want A to be resized (to be shrank) so I add the animations to my layer A
but when I commit the animation sublayer B is not shrank. Its size remains(but its position changes as its superlayer bounds changes)
How can I make my B layer to be resized along with A animation?
This is what I wrote:
CABasicAnimation *fadeInAnimation;
fadeInAnimation=[CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"opacity"];
fadeInAnimation.repeatCount = 1;
fadeInAnimation.autoreverses = NO;
fadeInAnimation.fromValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0];
fadeInAnimation.toValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0];
CABasicAnimation *shrinkAnimation;
shrinkAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"bounds.size"];
shrinkAnimation.repeatCount = 1;
shrinkAnimation.autoreverses = NO;
shrinkAnimation.timingFunction = [CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseIn];
shrinkAnimation.toValue = [NSValue valueWithCGSize:CGSizeMake(0, 0)];
aniGroupOFF = [[CAAnimationGroup animation] retain];
aniGroupOFF.delegate = self;
aniGroupOFF.duration = ANI_DURATION;
aniGroupOFF.animations = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:shrinkAnimation, fadeInAnimation, nil];
And the commit:
[self addAnimation:aniGroupOFF forKey:#"shrinkAndFade"];
self.opacity = 0.0;
Answer:
CABasicAnimation *shrinkAnimation;
shrinkAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform"]; //use transform instead of bounds.size
shrinkAnimation.repeatCount = 1;
shrinkAnimation.autoreverses = NO;
shrinkAnimation.timingFunction = [CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseIn];
shrinkAnimation.toValue = [NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:CATransform3DScale(self.transform, 0.1, 0.1, 1.0)];
aniGroupOFF = [[CAAnimationGroup animation] retain];
aniGroupOFF.delegate = self;
aniGroupOFF.duration = ANI_DURATION;
aniGroupOFF.animations = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:shrinkAnimation, nil];
The easiest way to achieve this is to animate the keyPath "transform.scale" instead of "bounds.size".
If you stick with "bounds.size" you will need to implement layoutSublayers on layer A or layoutSublayersOfLayer:(CALayer*)aLayer on A's delegate and manually adjust B's size in that implementation.
I try to do a CAKeyFrameAnimation for rotating an layer:
CALayer* theLayer = myView.layer;
CAKeyframeAnimation* animation;
animation = [CAKeyframeAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform.rotation.z"];
animation.duration = 1.0;
animation.cumulative = NO;
animation.repeatCount = 1;
animation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
animation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
animation.values = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0 * M_PI],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.5 * M_PI],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.3 * M_PI], // animation stops here...
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.8 * M_PI], // ignored!
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.7 * M_PI], nil]; // ignored!
animation.keyTimes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.2],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:2.0], // ignored!
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.5], // ignored!
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:2], nil]; // ignored!
animation.timingFunctions = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear], nil];
[theLayer addAnimation:animation forKey:#"transform.rotation.z"];
Like you can see in the comments, the animation only runs two of the key frames, but not all of them. No matter what kind of values I put in there, the animation will never run more than two key frames.
What could be wrong there?
Could it be that you set the animation.duration to 1 and yet your keyTimes are 0, 0.2 and then 2... meaning that the animation will stop before it reaches your 3rd value.
The keyTimes array must only contain increasing values from 0.0 to 1.0. These are percentages of the progress through the animation, not raw numbers in seconds. So, the keyframe matching keyTime 0.5 will happen halfway through the animation, not 1/2 second into the animation (unless, of course, you have a one-second animation).
I want to create an animation with several key frames. I want my Layer (a button in this case)
to scale up to 1.5 then down to 0.5 then up to 1.2 then down to 0.8 then 1.0.
I also want to EaseIn and EaseOut of each keyframe.
As you can imagine, this will create a Springy/Bounce effect on the spot.
In other parts of my app I have been using CAKeyframeAnimation like this (see below code).
This creates a similar springy animation but for x and y position.
Can I adapt the below code to affect scale instead of position?
Thank you in advance!

Two alternative solutions for you:
First, You can also animate the transform property.
Using Brad's code, but using #"transform" for the keypath. The primary advantage being that you do not have to calculate the actual frame, but instead provide a simple scaling factor:
Objective-C:
CAKeyframeAnimation *boundsOvershootAnimation = [CAKeyframeAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform"];
CATransform3D startingScale = CATransform3DScale (layer.transform, 0, 0, 0);
CATransform3D overshootScale = CATransform3DScale (layer.transform, 1.2, 1.2, 1.0);
CATransform3D undershootScale = CATransform3DScale (layer.transform, 0.9, 0.9, 1.0);
CATransform3D endingScale = layer.transform;
NSArray *boundsValues = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:startingScale],
[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:overshootScale],
[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:undershootScale],
[NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:endingScale], nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setValues:boundsValues];
NSArray *times = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.5f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.9f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0f], nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setKeyTimes:times];
NSArray *timingFunctions = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseOut],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut],
nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setTimingFunctions:timingFunctions];
boundsOvershootAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
boundsOvershootAnimation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
Swift 4:
let boundsOvershootAnimation = CAKeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "transform")
let startingScale = CATransform3DScale(layer.transform, 0, 0, 0)
let overshootScale = CATransform3DScale(layer.transform, 1.2, 1.2, 1.0)
let undershootScale = CATransform3DScale(layer.transform, 0.9, 0.9, 1.0)
let endingScale = layer.transform
boundsOvershootAnimation.values = [startingScale, overshootScale, undershootScale, endingScale]
boundsOvershootAnimation.keyTimes = [0.0, 0.5, 0.9, 1.0].map { NSNumber(value: $0) }
boundsOvershootAnimation.timingFunctions = [
CAMediaTimingFunction(name:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseOut),
CAMediaTimingFunction(name:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut),
CAMediaTimingFunction(name:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut)
]
boundsOvershootAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards
boundsOvershootAnimation.isRemovedOnCompletion = false
Second, and likely easier, is using FTUtils, an open source wrapper for core animation. It includes a stock "springy" animation.
You can get it at:
http://github.com/neror/ftutils
transform.scale, anyone?
let anim = CAKeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "transform.scale")
anim.values = [0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0]
anim.duration = 4.0
smallView.layer.addAnimation(anim, forKey: "what")
Totally unrelated, if you are gonna use floats in the values array, you must add them as NSNumbers, otherwise they'd just end up as 0s!
anim.values = [0.0, 1.2, 0.9, 1.0].map { NSNumber(double: $0) }
Rather than setting the path of your CAKeyframeAnimation, you'll want to set the keyframes themselves. I've created a "pop-in" effect before by animating the size of the bounds of a layer:
CAKeyframeAnimation *boundsOvershootAnimation = [CAKeyframeAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"bounds.size"];
CGSize startingSize = CGSizeZero;
CGSize overshootSize = CGSizeMake(targetSize.width * (1.0f + POPINOVERSHOOTPERCENTAGE), targetSize.height * (1.0f + POPINOVERSHOOTPERCENTAGE));
CGSize undershootSize = CGSizeMake(targetSize.width * (1.0f - POPINOVERSHOOTPERCENTAGE), targetSize.height * (1.0f - POPINOVERSHOOTPERCENTAGE));
NSArray *boundsValues = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSValue valueWithCGSize:startingSize],
[NSValue valueWithCGSize:overshootSize],
[NSValue valueWithCGSize:undershootSize],
[NSValue valueWithCGSize:targetSize], nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setValues:boundsValues];
NSArray *times = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.5f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.9f],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0f], nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setKeyTimes:times];
NSArray *timingFunctions = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseOut],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionEaseInEaseOut],
nil];
[boundsOvershootAnimation setTimingFunctions:timingFunctions];
boundsOvershootAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
boundsOvershootAnimation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
where POPINOVERSHOOTPERCENTAGE is the fraction by which I wanted to overshoot the target size of the layer.
I don't know if you can use a CAKeyframeAnimation for animating the scale of a UIView, but you can do it with a CABasicAnimation and setting the fromValue and toValue properties, and using that to animate the transform property:
- (CAAnimation*)monInAnimation
{
CABasicAnimation *animation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform"];
animation.fromValue = [NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:CATransform3DMakeScale(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)];
animation.toValue = [NSValue valueWithCATransform3D:CATransform3DMakeScale(3.0, 3.0, 3.0)];
[animation setDuration:1.5];
[animation setAutoreverses:YES];
return animation;
}
- (IBAction)monBtnIn
{
[monButton.layer addAnimation:[self monInAnimation] forKey:#"transform"];
}
I am rotating a view with this:
CGAffineTransform rotatedTransform = CGAffineTransformRotate(CGAffineTransformIdentity, rotationValue);
I have an object which I want to spin around for about 320 degrees. Now Core Animation is clever and just rotates it as much as needed, doing that by rotating it with -40 degrees. So the object rotates the other way around with a shorter amount of movement.
I want to constrain it to rotate clockwise. Would I have to do that by changing animations in little steps, or is there an more elegant way?
The following snippet rotates a view called someView by using key-framed animation. The animation consists of 3 frames spread over 1 second, with the view rotated to 0º, 180º and 360º in the first, second and last frames respectively. Code follows:
CALayer* layer = someView.layer;
CAKeyframeAnimation* animation;
animation = [CAKeyframeAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform.rotation.z"];
animation.duration = 1.0;
animation.cumulative = YES;
animation.repeatCount = 1;
animation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
animation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
animation.values = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0 * M_PI],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.5 * M_PI],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0 * M_PI], nil];
animation.keyTimes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.5],
[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0], nil];
animation.timingFunctions = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear],
[CAMediaTimingFunction functionWithName:kCAMediaTimingFunctionLinear], nil];
[layer addAnimation:animation forKey:#"transform.rotation.z"];
If you're after counterclockwise animation, you should use negative values. For a slightly more basic animation, you can use CABasicAnimation:
CALayer* layer = someView.layer;
CABasicAnimation* animation;
animation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"transform.rotation.z"];
animation.fromValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0 * M_PI];
animation.toValue = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0 * M_PI];
animation.duration = 1.0;
animation.cumulative = YES;
animation.repeatCount = 1;
animation.removedOnCompletion = NO;
animation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
[layer addAnimation:rotationAnimation forKey:#"transform.rotation.z"];
I believe you have to give it another "key frame" if you will to give Core Animation the hint that it needs to go that direction.
Make sure and turn off easing, (at least for the end/beginning of the middle step) otherwise the animation will not look smooth.
