About

What is JBKenBurns?

JBKenBurns is an iOS library designed to implement the Ken Burns effect, a widely used technique for displaying still photographs in motion pictures. This effect adds dynamic visual interest through slow zooming, panning, and fading transitions between frames. Developers can easily integrate JBKenBurns into their iOS projects to animate an array of UIImage objects or image paths. The library offers control over transition duration, initial delay, looping, and optimization for landscape mode. It also includes a delegate protocol to notify when an image changes or the slideshow ends, providing flexibility for custom interactions within iOS applications.

Best used for

FAQs

How do I integrate JBKenBurns into my iOS project?

You can integrate JBKenBurns by adding 'pod 'JBKenBurnsView'' to your Podfile if using CocoaPods. Alternatively, you can directly drop the JBKenBurnsView.m and JBKenBurnsView.h files into your project, providing flexibility for different development workflows.

Can I add new images to an animation after it has started?

Yes, JBKenBurns allows you to add new images to the array of images in the slideshow even after the animation has begun. You can use the `addImage:(UIImage *)image` method to dynamically update the content being displayed.

Does JBKenBurns support both UIImage objects and image file paths?

Yes, JBKenBurns supports animating with both `NSArray` of `UIImage` objects and `NSArray` of `NSString` containing paths to the images. This provides flexibility in how you manage and supply your image assets for the Ken Burns effect.
