Awesome

Bridging AGGeometryKit with POP for amazing dynamics and animations.

See this interesting video about animation principles by Cento Lodigiani. If you like what you see and want to mimic step #1 and #5 - then this kit is here to help you.

Installation

New-school: Use the cocoa pod named AGGeometryKit+POP.
Old-school: Grab the files found in Source.

Demo

See the video on vimeo

Technology

It does not rely on snapshotting view hierarchy at all. Whenever you update the property quadrilateral (defined in AGGeometryKit) on the CALayer you are actually just applying a new CATransform3D. This can be done on any view whether it is an interactive UIWebView or just a plain UIImageView. This is totally cost-free! :)

Interface

Animate each corner independently using these new POPAnimatableProperty's.

extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopLeft;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopLeftX;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopLeftY;

extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopRight;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopRightX;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadTopRightY;

extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomLeft;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomLeftX;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomLeftY;

extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomRight;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomRightX;
extern NSString * const kPOPLayerAGKQuadBottomRightY;

@interface POPAnimatableProperty (AGK_POP)

+ (instancetype)AGKPropertyWithName:(NSString *)aName;
