text
Body
copied!<p>I wrote the code for marquee shown below---</p> <pre><code>- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewDidAppear:YES]; //NSTimer *timer=[[NSTimer alloc] initWithFireDate:nil interval:.5 target:self selector:@selector(marqueDisplay) userInfo:nil repeats:YES]; [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:7.0 target:self selector:@selector(marqueDisplay) userInfo:nil repeats:YES]; } -(void)marqueDisplay { NSString *theMessage = @"Hello, my name is Enigo Montoya. You killed my father, prepare to die"; NSUInteger length = [theMessage length]; NSLog(@"%d",length); if (length>69) { messageSize = [theMessage sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0]]; messageView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, messageSize.width, 19)]; //x,y,width,height [messageView setClipsToBounds:YES]; // With This you prevent the animation to be drawn outside the bounds. [self.view addSubview:messageView]; lblTime = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(-400, 0, messageSize.width, 19)]; //x,y,width,height [lblTime setBackgroundColor:[UIColor darkGrayColor]]; lblTime.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14]; [lblTime setText:theMessage]; [lblTime setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentLeft]; //lblTime.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, messageSize.width, 19); //x,y,width,height [messageView addSubview:lblTime]; float duration = messageSize.width / 60; // This determines the speed of the moving text. [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL]; [UIView setAnimationDuration:duration]; [UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionNone forView:messageView cache:YES]; lblTime.frame = CGRectMake(messageSize.width, 0, messageSize.width, 19); //x,y,width,height [UIView commitAnimations]; } } </code></pre> <p>this works but this is not satisfying my need... Actually the text is not moving in loop form, i want that if string length > 60 then marquee start and appended the string.</p> <p>Plz help me to solve this problem.. Thanks in advance.</p>
