How I can animate two sets of images one on the other on xcode? I mean that one set is background or landscape and the other set is a figure in the background
Here's a basic approach you might try:
UIImageView* backdropScene = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame];
backdropScene.animationImages = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:#"rainy_background01.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"rainy_background02.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"rainy_background03.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"rainy_background04.png"], nil];
backdropScene.animationDuration = .2f; // image change rate, .2 seconds
backdropScene.animationRepeatCount = 0; // repeat infinitely
[self.view addSubview:backdropScene];
[backdropScene startAnimation];
UIImageView* foregroundAnimation = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame];
foregroundAnimation.animationImages = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:#"man_walk01.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"man_walk02.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"man_walk03.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"man_walk04.png"], nil];
foregroundAnimation.animationDuration = .5f; // image change rate, .2 seconds
foregroundAnimation.animationRepeatCount = 0; // repeat infinitely
[self.view addSubview:foregroundAnimation];
[foregroundAnimation startAnimation];

I have a project with two segmented controls. They both worked up to iOS7.0. Now one does not. I've read of issues with tintColor, but I think this is something different.
Both controls use UIImages as segments. On one, the images all show correctly. On the other, I get all blue images.
Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?
Here's the code of the faulty segment:
UISegmentedControl *colorControl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:
[NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:#"White.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Red.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Yellow.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Green.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Blue.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Purple.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"Black.png"], nil]];
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(rect.origin.x + kLeftMargin, rect.size.height - kPaletteHeight - kTopMargin, rect.size.width - (kLeftMargin + kRightMargin), kPaletteHeight );
colorControl.frame = frame;
// Add DoubleTap Color capability
gesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(showMoreColors:)];
[gesture setNumberOfTapsRequired:2];
[colorControl addGestureRecognizer:gesture];
// When the user chooses a color, the method changeColor: is called.
[colorControl addTarget:self action:#selector(changeColor:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
// Make sure the color of the color complements the black background
//colorControl.tintColor = [UIColor clearColor];
// Add the control to the window
[self.view addSubview:colorControl];
While the images are all blue, the segments work as expected.
Thanks to this question, I formulated the following fix:
-(void) buildColorBar {
//NSLog(#"%s", __FUNCTION__);
UIImage *whiteImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"White.png"];
UIImage *blackImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Black.png"];
UIImage *purpleImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Purple.png"];
UIImage *redImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Red.png"];
UIImage *blueImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Blue.png"];
UIImage *greenImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Green.png"];
UIImage *yellowImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Yellow.png"];
NSArray *colorArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:
[whiteImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal],
[redImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ],
[yellowImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ],
[greenImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ],
[blueImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ],
[purpleImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ],
[blackImage imageWithRenderingMode: UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal ], nil ];
UISegmentedControl *colorControl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:colorArray];
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(rect.origin.x + kLeftMargin, rect.size.height - kPaletteHeight - kTopMargin, rect.size.width - (kLeftMargin + kRightMargin), kPaletteHeight );
colorControl.frame = frame;
I hope it helps someone else.
How can I use a GIF image as UIButton Image Background?
UIImage *img1 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img1"];
UIImage *img2 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img2"];
UIImage *img3 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img3"];
// GIF ImageView
_btnGIF.imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:img1, img2, img3, nil];
_btnGIF.imageView.animationDuration = 0;
[_btnGIF.imageView startAnimating];
//[_btnGIF setBackgroundImage:GIF forState:UIControlStateNormal];
You need to start your button with an image, so it can create it properly.
For example:
UIImage *img1 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img1"];
UIImage *img2 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img2"];
UIImage *img3 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_img3"];
[_btnGIF setImage:img1 forState:UIControlStateNormal];
// GIF ImageView
_btnGIF.imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:img1, img2, img3, nil];
_btnGIF.imageView.animationDuration = 0;
[_btnGIF.imageView startAnimating];
i create an nsmutableArray and i add for it an images. also i create an imageView that i want to show the images from the array, i tried to use animationImages but i nothing is happened, how can i fix it?
here is my code:
//Numbers images
UIImage *numberZero = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberZero.png"];
UIImage *numberOne = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberOne.png"];
UIImage *numberTwo = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberTwo.png"];
UIImage *numberThree = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberThree.png"];
UIImage *numberFour = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberFour.png"];
UIImage *numberFive = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberFive.png"];
UIImage *numberSix = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberSix.png"];
UIImage *numberSeven = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberSeven.png"];
UIImage *numberEight = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberEight.png"];
UIImage *numberNine = [UIImage imageNamed:#"numberNine.png"];
//add numbers uiimage to numbersArray
numbersArray = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:numberZero, numberOne, numberTwo, numberThree, numberFour, numberFive, numberSix, numberSeven, numberEight, numberNine, nil];
imgview1 = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
imgview1.animationImages = numbersArray;
imgview1.animationDuration = 2;
imgview1.animationRepeatCount=0;
[imgview1 startAnimating];
[imgview1 stopAnimating];
thanks!
You need to actually add imgview1 to something so that it displays. If imgview1 was created in Interface Builder then there is no need to assign. Also you stop your animation immediately after starting it.
//If created in IB comment out the next line
imgview1 = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
imgview1.animationImages = numbersArray;
imgview1.animationDuration = 2;
imgview1.animationRepeatCount=0;
//If not created in IB then add this to a view e.g:
[self.view addSubview:imgview1];
[imgview1 startAnimating];
//[imgview1 stopAnimating]; this is too soon to stop animating
I assume that by "nothing happened" you mean that you see the first image, but the sequence does not move beyond that.
This is probably because you stopAnimating too soon: it does not even get a chance to start!
i solve the problem, i guess the problem were because i didn't use init with frame to my imgview.
here is the final code:
UIImageView *imgview1 = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(40, 90, 240, 240)];
imgview1.animationImages = numbersArray;
imgview1.animationDuration = 2;
imgview1.animationRepeatCount=1;
[imgview1 startAnimating];
[self.view addSubview:imgview1];
hope u understand...
I am beginner of iphone, I have all images in array but how to display one by one when I execute the array in a loop..
NSArray *images = [[NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[UIImage imageNamed:#"1.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"2.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"3.png"],
[UIImage imageNamed:#"4.png"],
nil] retain];
int i=0;
int width = 0;
int height = 0;
for ( NSString *imageName in images )
{
//NSTimer *timer=[[NSTimer alloc]init];
UIImage *image = [images objectAtIndex:i];
//UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:imageName];
animalphoto = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
animalphoto.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
animalphoto.clipsToBounds = YES;
animalphoto.animationDuration=5.0;
animalphoto.animationRepeatCount=0;
animalphoto.frame = CGRectMake( animalphoto.frame.size.width * i++, 0, animalphoto.frame.size.width, animalphoto.frame.size.height);
width = animalphoto.frame.size.width;
height = animalphoto.frame.size.height;
NSLog(#"print:%#",image);
[animalphoto release];
}
}
Give any suggestion and sample code which is apply in our code..
Instead of putting one image just put whole array of images to the imgview.animationImages = images without the for loop
For further reference visit this site.
you need to use UIImageView's object animationImages to set the UIImage array
set animationRepeatCount
set animationDuration
then call [imageView startAnimating]; to start the animation
how to change this code to make the animation like this:
image1 --> image2 ---> image3 --->image4 --->image 5 .. then return back to image1 and so on ...
the code:
UIImage *image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"1.jpg"];
UIImage *image2 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"2.jpg"];
UIImage *image3 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"3.jpg"];
UIImage *image4 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"4.jpg"];
UIImage *image5 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"5.jpg"];
NSArray *imageArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:image1.CGImage, image2.CGImage, image3.CGImage, nil];
//self.introImages.image = image1;
[self.view addSubview:self.introImages];
CABasicAnimation *crossFade = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:#"contents"];
crossFade.autoreverses = YES;
crossFade.repeatCount = HUGE_VALF;
crossFade.duration = 1.0;
//self.introImages.layer.contents = image2.CGImage;
crossFade.fromValue = (id)image1.CGImage;
crossFade.toValue = (id)image5.CGImage;
[self.introImages.layer addAnimation:crossFade forKey:#"animateContents"];
Better a late answer then no one i think. :)
There are several mistakes in your code.
First of all if you want to use crossfade of images you should add the animation to the imageView containing the images and just switch between the UIImages.
Second: If you want to cycle through more images than two, you should either use a queue of animations with the help of animationDidFinish callback methods, or you should use the animationImages field of the UIImageView class to let the UIImageView do all the work.
Third: If you are changing the layer of the image from image1 to image5 how could you expect the compiler to know that it should put all the other pics in between?
Try this code:
UIImage *image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"1.jpg"];
UIImage *image2 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"2.jpg"];
UIImage *image3 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"3.jpg"];
UIImage *image4 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"4.jpg"];
UIImage *image5 = [UIImage imageNamed:#"5.jpg"];
NSArray *imageArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:image1.CGImage, image2.CGImage, image3.CGImage, nil];
//imageView to add the array of images you want to cycle through
iv_introImages.animationImages = imageArray;
//duration of the animation-cycle
iv_introImages.animationDuration = 1.0;
//how often you want the animation to repeat. 0 stands for endless repetition
iv_introImages.animationRepeatCount = 0;
//starts the animation
[iv_introImages startAnimating];
hope this helps.
