Disabling implicit animations in -[CALayer setNeedsDisplayInRect:]

by

You can do this by setting the actions dictionary on the layer to return [NSNull null] as an animation for the appropriate key. For example, I use

NSDictionary *newActions = @{
    @"onOrderIn": [NSNull null],
    @"onOrderOut": [NSNull null],
    @"sublayers": [NSNull null],
    @"contents": [NSNull null],
    @"bounds": [NSNull null]
};

layer.actions = newActions;

to disable fade in / out animations on insertion or change of sublayers within one of my layers, as well as changes in the size and contents of the layer. I believe the contents key is the one you’re looking for in order to prevent the crossfade on updated drawing.

Swift version:

let newActions = [
        "onOrderIn": NSNull(),
        "onOrderOut": NSNull(),
        "sublayers": NSNull(),
        "contents": NSNull(),
        "bounds": NSNull(),
    ]
