How do I control the background color during the iPhone flip view animation transition?
- by Rob S.
I have some pretty standing flipping action going on:
[UIView beginAnimations:@"swapScreens" context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionFlipFromLeft forView:self.view cache:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:1.0];
[self.view exchangeSubviewAtIndex:0 withSubviewAtIndex:1];
[UIView commitAnimations];
To Apple's credit, this style of animation is amazingly easy to work with. Very cool, and I've been able to animate transitions, flips, fades etc. throughout the app very easily.
Question: During the flip transition, the background visible 'behind' the two views during the flip is white and I'd like it to be black. I've:
Set the background of the containing view (self.view above) - no dice. I really thought that would work.
Set the background of each view to black - no dice. I didn't think this would work although you give different things a shot to understand better :)
Google'd like crazy; keep landing on Safari-related listings.
Thanks in advance!
