Courses Plus Student 252 PointsTrouble with animating Crystal Ball App
After watching the tutorial, I typed this code from the video & into Xcode
self.imageView.animationImages = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00001"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00002"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00003"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00004"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00005"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00006"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00007"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00008"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00009"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00010"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00011"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00012"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00013"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00014"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00015"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00016"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00017"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00018"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00019"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00020"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00021"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00022"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00023"],[UIImage imageNamed:@"cball00024"], nil];
For some reason, it's giving me an error message stating that "animationImages" is not found on object type UIImage. How can i fix this? I'm really close to finishing and ont want to give up now

Courses Plus Student 252 PointsI did insert both lines of code before inserting the animation files. I will probably rewatch the videos before and see what mistake i made. Thank you for your astonishingly quick response! :D

Courses Plus Student 252 PointsHI Caleb, i thought that replaying the videos would help. I still couldn't find the error within my code. I'm receiving the same error message stating, "Property 'animationDuration' not found on object of type 'UIImage' ,as well as "Property "animationRepeatCount" not found on object of type 'UIImage'.
Please help thanks

the error was telling you that you can't call animationDuration or animationRepeat count on an UIImage.
sorry this is late, i didn't know it went unanswered.

Treehouse Guest TeacherCan you paste the code from ViewController.h file?
Fabien Bourdon
Courses Plus Student 252 Pointsyes, if you mean the synthesize & property strings?
Amit Bijlani
Treehouse Guest TeacherYes please
Fabien Bourdon
Courses Plus Student 252 PointsYes, i then was stuck when inserting the animation strings cball00001 through 24 where i still couldnt find the solution
Amit Bijlani
Treehouse Guest TeacherCan you paste your code from the header file so I can see how you have defined the @property?

Treehouse Guest TeacherThat's your problem. You have defined imageView as an UIImage but it should be a UIImageView.

Courses Plus Student 252 PointsThank you very much! This really helped!

Courses Plus Student 2,447 PointsI'm having a similar problem, except it says "animationImages not found on type UILabel". How do I fix my code?

15,158 PointsHello Fabien. Did you create the imageView @property in the header file and synthesize it before this code? If you didn't create the property, that could explain why the animationImages is not found.
