Is there a way to do the following without an instant hide/unhide? Or do I have to make everything a separate view or something complicated? A simple fade in fade out like the modal transition style is all I'm looking for.
-(IBAction)someMethod
{
UIButton.hidden = NO;
tableView.hidden = NO;
}
-(void)viewDidLoad
{
UIbutton.hidden = YES;
tableView.hidden = YES;
}
You could animate the alpha value:
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5f animations:^{
button.alpha = 0.0f;
tableView.alpha = 0.0f;
}];
and it's counterpart
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5f animations:^{
button.alpha = 1.0f;
tableView.alpha = 1.0f;
}];
[UIView animateWithDuration:2.0f
animations:^ {
UIButton.alpha = 1;
UIButton.hidden = NO;
tableView.alpha = 1
tableView.hidden = NO;
}];
Do the opposite for hide and change the duration to your need.
