I want to flash an UIImageview on the iPad, how do I do that?

Question

I want to let a UIImageView flash several times.

Currently I don\'t know how to do that.

Actual code:

-(void)arrowsAnimate{
    [UIVi

There is a simpler way to achieve a flashing animation using only 1 animation block:

aview.alpha = 1.0f;
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5f
                      delay:0.0f 
                    options:UIViewAnimationOptionAutoreverse
                 animations:^ {
       [UIView setAnimationRepeatCount:10.0f/2.0f];
       aview.alpha = 0.0f;
} completion:^(BOOL finished) { 
       [aview removeFromSuperview]; 
}];    

The trick is to use [UIView setAnimationRepeatCount:NTIMES/2]; *_inside_* your animation block. No need for extra functions or extra loops.
