I\'m looking for tutorials on creating custom view transitions.
In particular, transitions that involve elements other than just the UIViews being affected, such as play
Here is a quick guide to using the standard UIView transitions. http://chris-software.com/index.php/dev-center/view-transitions/
If you want to fade into a view use something like this. This works with any type of element with an alpha property, such as UIImageViews, etc. someView.alpha = 0; [viewController.view addSubview:someView];
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:.5];
[UIView setAnimationDelegate:self];
someView.alpha = 1;
[UIView commitAnimations];
