Overloads

Name Description
BeginAnimations(String)

BeginAnimations(String, IntPtr)

BeginAnimations(String)

Indicates the beginning of an animation block.

public static void BeginAnimations(string animation);
static member BeginAnimations : string -> unit

Parameters

animation
String

The animation identifier.

Remarks

Application developers should prefer to use the more compact syntax of Animate(Double, Action), Animate(Double, Action, Action), Animate(Double, Double, UIViewAnimationOptions, Action, Action) or Animate(Double, NFloat, NFloat, Double, UIViewAnimationOptions, Action, Action<Boolean>).

Older versions of iOS used a matched set of BeginAnimations(String, IntPtr) and CommitAnimations() to specify an animation block. The following code, taken from the "Animate a UIView using UIKit" recipe, shows the technique:

UIView.BeginAnimations ("slideAnimation");

UIView.SetAnimationDuration (2);
UIView.SetAnimationCurve (UIViewAnimationCurve.EaseInOut);
UIView.SetAnimationRepeatCount (2);
UIView.SetAnimationRepeatAutoreverses (true);
UIView.SetAnimationDelegate (this);
UIView.SetAnimationDidStopSelector (
  new Selector ("slideAnimationFinished:"));
_imageView.Center = new CGPoint (UIScreen.MainScreen.Bounds.Right -
  _imageView.Frame.Width / 2, _imageView.Center.Y);
UIView.CommitAnimations ();
