cancel a UIView animateWithDuration before completion

Question

I have this code in my project:

- (void) fadeImageView {
    [UIView animateWithDuration:1.0f
                          delay:0
                        options:

First of all you have to add UIViewAnimationOptionAllowUserInteraction to option like..

- (void) fadeImageView {
    [UIView animateWithDuration:1.0f
                          delay:0
                        options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut | UIViewAnimationOptionAllowUserInteraction
                     animations:^{
                         self.imageView.alpha = 0.0f;
                     }
                     completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                         //make the image view un-tappable.
                         //if the fade was canceled, set the alpha to 1.0
                     }];

}

and then make a method like this....

-(void)stopAnimation {
    [self.routeView.layer removeAllAnimations];
}

after that when you want to remove your animation call above method using .....

[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(stopAnimation) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];

Hope it will help you

Happy coding.........!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Thanks user1244109 to guide me for this.

For iOS7 we have to add one more option UIViewAnimationOptionBeginFromCurrentState like:

[UIView animateWithDuration:1.0f
                              delay:0
                            options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut | UIViewAnimationOptionAllowUserInteraction | UIViewAnimationOptionBeginFromCurrentState
                         animations:^{
                             self.imageView.alpha = 0.0f;
                         }
                         completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                             //make the image view un-tappable.
                             //if the fade was canceled, set the alpha to 1.0
                         }];
