iPhone "slide to unlock" animation
- by Russ
Any ideas as to how Apple implemented the "slide to unlock" (also, "slide to power off" is another identical example) animation?
I thought about some sort of animating mask - but masking is not available on the iPhone OS for performance reasons.
Is there some private API effect (like SuckEffect) that they might have used? A spotlight type of effect? Some Core Animation thing?
Edit:
It's definitely not a series of stills. I've seen examples of being edit a plist value or something and customize the string on jailbroken iphones.
