Remove from superview AND enable user interaction - objective-c

Question

I'm doing some custom animations to change views in a single method. I already removed "fromView" from superView using [UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(removeFromSuperview)], but I also want to enable user interaction after the end of the animation.
Here's my code:
-(void) switchFrom:(UIViewController*) fromViewController To:(UIViewController*) toViewController usingAnimation:(int) animation{
UIView *fromView = fromViewController.view;
UIView *toView = toViewController.view;
/*************** SET ALL DEFAULT TRANSITION SETTINGS ***************/
// Get the current view frame, width and height
CGRect pageFrame = fromView.frame;
CGFloat pageWidth = pageFrame.size.width;
// Create the animation
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
// Create the delegate, so the "fromView" is removed after the transition
[UIView setAnimationDelegate: fromView];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(removeFromSuperview)];
// Set the transition duration
[UIView setAnimationDuration: 0.4];
/*************** IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL ***************/
[toView setUserInteractionEnabled:NO];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate: toView];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(setUserInteractionEnabled:)];
[toView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
// Add the "toView" as subview of "fromView" superview
[fromView.superview addSubview:toView];
switch (animation) {
case AnimationPushFromRigh:{
// Position the "toView" to the right corner of the page
toView.frame = CGRectOffset(pageFrame, pageWidth,0);
// Animate the "fromView" to the left corner of the page
fromView.frame = CGRectOffset(pageFrame, -pageWidth,0);
// Animate the "toView" to the center of the page
toView.frame = pageFrame;
// Animate the "fromView" alpha
fromView.alpha = 0;
// Set and animate the "toView" alpha
toView.alpha = 0;
toView.alpha = 1;
// Commit the animation
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
.
.
.
Any idea how can I call this two methods in setAnimationDidStopSelector and actually make them work together?
EDIT 1
Tried #safecase code like this, replacing this commented block:
/*************** IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL ***************
[toView setUserInteractionEnabled:NO];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate: toView];
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(setUserInteractionEnabled:)];
[toView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
*************** IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL ***************/
// Remove the interaction
[toView setUserInteractionEnabled:NO];
[fromView setUserInteractionEnabled:NO];
// Create the animation
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.4 animations:^{
[fromView performSelector:#selector(removeFromSuperview)];
}
completion:^(BOOL finished){
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.4
animations:^{
C6Log(#"finished");
[toView performSelector: #selector(setUserInteractionEnabled:)];
}];
}];
The "toView" is removed instead of the "fromView" is removed :(
The buttons continue to be interactive during the animation

Answer 1

Do you know beginIgnoringInteractionEvents and endIgnoringInteractionEvents?
Normally, if you don't want any userInteraction during an animation, you would use those.
Anyway you still need correct callbacks to trigger them.

Answer 2

You need to define your own method, e.g. remove: and pass that as the selector. In the method, just use the passed UIView to remove it.
-(void)remove:(id)sender {
UIView *v = (UIView*)sender;
[v removeFromSuperview];
}

Answer 3

You can use this:
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.4
animations:^{ [self performSelector:#selector(removeFromSuperview)]; // other code here}
completion:^(BOOL finished){ [UIView animateWithDuration:0.4
animations:^{ [self performSelector:#selector(setUserInteractionEnabled:)]; //other code here}]; }];
Hope helpful.

Answer 4

I think u can use to enable user interaction
self.view.userInteractionEnabled=NO;

Answer 5

I ended up creating a Category extension to UIView… and it finally works!
UIView+Animated.h code
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface UIView (Animated)
- (void) finishedAnimation;
#end
UIView+Animated.m code
#import "UIView+Animated.h"
#implementation UIView (Animated)
- (void) finishedAnimation{
C6Log(#"FinishedAnimation!");
[self removeFromSuperview];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] endIgnoringInteractionEvents];
}
#end
Then, I #imported this extension in my coordinating controller:
C6CoordinatingController.h partial code
#import "UIView+Animated.h"
And called the selector in setAnimationDidStopSelector:
C6CoordinatingController.m partial code
// Create the delegate, so the "fromView" is removed after the transition
[UIView setAnimationDelegate: fromView];
// Ignore interaction events during the animation
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] beginIgnoringInteractionEvents];
// Set the transition duration
[UIView setAnimationDuration: 0.4];
// Call UIView+Animated "finishedAnimation" method when animation stops
[UIView setAnimationDidStopSelector:#selector(finishedAnimation)];
So, I ended up using #jaydee3 and #Mundi concepts and it works like a charm!
Thank you guys!
