Animate intrinsicContentSize changes

Question

I have a UIView subclass that draws a circle whose radius changes (with nice bouncy animations). The view is deciding the size of the circle.

I want this UIView subclass

Answer 1

In the code below, intrinsic class is the class that has just changed it's size on changing a variable. To animate the intrinsic class only use the code below. If it impacts other objects higher up the view hierarchy then replace self.intrinsic class with the top level view for setNeedsLayout and layoutIfNeeded.

[UIView animateWithDuration:.2 animations:^{
        self.intrinsicClass.numberOfWeeks=8;
        [self.intrinsicClass setNeedsLayout];
        [self.intrinsicClass layoutIfNeeded];
    }];
