Simple iPhone App (iOS7)

Build a Simple iPhone App (iOS7) / Animating and Intercepting Events / Image Based Animation / Code Challange:

I am stuck on this code challange and could you any help. Question 1 of 3 (Let's add animation to the Random Quotes app. A property named 'imageView' has been already defined. Assuming you have images named '01.png','02.png','03.png', create an array of UIImage objects and assign them to the 'animationImages' property of 'imageView'.) My code is:

self.imageView = [[randomQutoes alloc] init]; self.backgroundImageView.animationImage = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: [UIImage imageNamed:@"01"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"02"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"03"], nil];

Thank you for the help, Mark

Hey Mark,

It's a simple mistake to make but you're error lies here:

self.backgroundImageView.animationImage

In the app that Treehouse is getting you to build, the name of your UIImageView is "backgroundImageView". In the code challenge, the name of your UIImageView is in fact "imageView". Change this and you should be good to go!

:)

Steve,

I still am not passing part 1 of 3 in code challenge. I corrected code below from your comments. Thank you for the help.

Mark

Code: self.imageView = [[randomQutoes alloc] init]; self.imageView.animationImage = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: [UIImage imageNamed:@"01"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"02"], [UIImage imageNamed:@"03"], nil];

Hey Mark,

You might passed this challenge by now but this post hasn't been answered.

The mistake is in the name of the images: @"01" should be replaced by @"01.png" @"02" should be replaced by @"02.png" @"03" should be replaced by @"03.png"

Code:

self.imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: 
[UIImage imageNamed:@"01.png"], 
[UIImage imageNamed:@"02.png"], 
[UIImage imageNamed:@"03.png"], nil];
