I'm trying to animate the height constraint of a UITextView inside a UIScrollView. When the user taps the "toggle" button, the text should appear in animation from top to bottom. But somehow UIKit fades in the complete view.
To ensure the "dynamic" height depending on the intrinsic content-size, I deactivate the height constraint set to zero.
@IBAction func toggle() {
layoutIfNeeded()
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.6, animations: { [weak self] in
guard let self = self else {
return
}
if self.expanded {
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([self.height].compactMap { $0 })
} else {
NSLayoutConstraint.deactivate([self.height].compactMap { $0 })
}
self.layoutIfNeeded()
})
expanded.toggle()
}
The full code of this example is available on my GitHub Repo: ScrollAnimationExample
UITextView
instead of aUILabel
? And, are you targeting iOS 13+ or earlier? – DonMagUITextView
. We could have used a multi lineUILabel
too. We're currently targeting iOS 11.2+ but thinking about going to iOS 13+. – Joshua Brunhuber
