Chaining Core Animation animations

by

You can also use animation grouping and use the beginTime field of the animation. Try something like this:

CABasicAnimation *posAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:@"position"];
[posAnimation setFromValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0]];
[posAnimation setToValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0]];
// Here's the important part
[posAnimation setDuration:10.0];
[posAnimation setBeginTime:0.0];

CABasicAnimation *borderWidthAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:@"borderWidth"];
[borderWidthAnimation setFromValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:0.0]];
[borderWidthAnimation setToValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:1.0]];
// Here's the important part
[borderWidthAnimation setDuration:10.0];
[borderWidthAnimation setBeginTime:5.0];

CAAnimationGroup *group = [CAAnimationGroup animation];
[group setDuration:10.0];
[group setAnimations:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:posAnimation, borderWidthAnimation, nil]];

[layer addAnimation:group forKey:nil];

Notice that the duration of the entire animation is 10 seconds. The first one starts at second 0 and the second one starts at 5 seconds.
