STypingAnimation

A fully customizable Objective-C typing animation view that mimics auto-typing in UITextField.

DEMO

Installation

####CocoaPods

This method is still not ready yet.

####Manual

1. Drag these two files into your project.

• STypingAnimation.h
• STypingAnimation.m

Usage

####Interface Builder:

1. Drag a UILabel object from the Object Library and drop it in your Storyboard.

2. Set the Class to STypingAnimation in your Identity Inspector.

3. Link your IBOutlet to your class as a property

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet STypingAnimation *typingView;

4. Import the header file into your desired class (view controller).

#import "STypingAnimation.h"

5. Set the array of texts that you want to display by adding this code to viewDidLoad for example.

   [self.typingView setTextArray:@[@"Hello World!",@"It's working!"]];

   That's it, run the project and see the results!

####Programatically

1. Import the header file into your desired class (view controller).

#import "STypingAnimation.h"

2. Create an instance of STypingView and provide it with your array of texts you want to display. Don't forget to add that subview to a view like below.

   STypingAnimation *typingView = [[STypingAnimation alloc] initWithTextArray:@[@"Hello World!",@"It's working!"]];

[self.view addSubview:typingView]; ```

That's it, just run the project and enjoy!

Customization

Assuming that you have a typingView object, you can do a lot of adjustment to the speed/effect of your animated label by modifying one of the following public properties:

####Typing speed The speed of typing a letter measured in seconds.

self.typingView.typingSpeed = 0.5;

####Cursor blink speed The time (in seconds) that it takes the cursor to perform a full blink (appear & disappear completely).

self.typingView.cursorBlinkSpeed = 0.5;

####Delay to start typing The time (in seconds) that the label waits before starting to type.

self.typingView.startTypingDelay = 0.5;

####Delay to start deleting The time (in seconds) that the label waits before starting to delete characters.

self.typingView.delayToStartDeleting = 0.5;

####Delay to start deleting The time (in seconds) that the label waits before starting to delete characters.

self.typingView.deletingSpeed = 0.1;

####Loop the animation A boolean that states if the animation should stop or repeat when all the texts in the array gets typed out.

self.typingView.loop = YES;
