UIButton flashing animation

Question

I was wondering if it was possible to apply a flashing animation to a UIButton. I have searched but only found the code for a pulse animation which changes the size of my UIButt

Answer 1

Try this one:

call this method when you want blink/flash the button

blinkTimer=[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:0.5 target:self selector:@selector(toggleButtonImage:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

and write this method

- (void)toggleButtonImage:(NSTimer*)timer
{

    if(toggle)
    {
        [blinkBtn setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"ButtonImage.png"] forState: UIControlStateNormal];
    }
    else
    {
        [blinkBtn setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"ButtonImage1.png"] forState: UIControlStateNormal];
    }
    toggle = !toggle;

}

in .h write this one

NSTimer *blinkTimer;
BOOL toggle;

and invalidate the timer where you want to stop the flashing/blinking

[blinkTimer invalidate];
