iOS Question [B4XGifView] has a way to disable looping and control speed in iOS?

[Carlos marin]

Hi guys, is there a way to replicate what I saw in the following thread but for iOS?

https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4xgifview-have-a-way-to-disable-loop.127574/post-799050

I can't find the B4XGifView1.GifDrawable property and would like to have control to start, stop and handle the speed of the gif, i'm loading a gif but it takes longer to reproduce the animation than it should, apart from that I don't see how to stop it, maybe it only allows me the option to delete it but it would not be what I require.

Thank you all very much.

Try this:

Dim AnimatedImageView As NativeObject = GifView.mBase.GetView(0)
AnimatedImageView.RunMethod("stopAnimating", Null) 'or startAnimating

Try this:

Dim AnimatedImageView As JavaObject = GifView.mBase.GetView(0)
AnimatedImageView.RunMethod("stopAnimating", Null) 'or startAnimating

Hi Erel, your answer of stopping animation is for android but how can I stop animation for iOS?

 

[Erel]

If I remember correctly, it is the B4i solution and I confused JavaObject with NativeObject. Please try it.

Thank you Erel it works but is there a possibility that the animation stops after one loop?

 

[Erel]

Not without modifying the library source code. If you know the duration then you can use Sleep and then stop it.

I've tried before but sometimes it stops right and sometimes it stops too late.
Now I have used WKWebView to make it work because the gif file only has one loop not endless looping.
Thank you Erel
