Hello:

For one thing, it's a bad idea to put this into a tight loop. NSViewAnimation would be more suited for this purpose. A tight loop will tie up your UI and possibly display the beachball -- a really poor user experience.

I'm having a hard time visualizing exactly what you intend to display, but it seems to me it'd be a lot easier just to swap individual images (with the individual numbers in them) if you're just doing a countdown type animation.

If this isn't the case, could you provide a more specific description of the effect you're trying to accomplish?

Suppose that I had an NSView, with an image in it the same size of the NSView. Now, I start the NSView with a width of 0. I want to animate this image opening, so I have a for loop, pause in it for about 5 milliseconds, and set the frame size (setFrameSize) of the NSView to be i (i increments each time). Now, this slowly "opens up" to the right. For instance, if my image just had the numbers "1, 2, 3, 4, 5" from left to right, it would slowly show "1" then "2" then "3", etc. But, I want it to "open up" to the left, so that it first shows "5" then "4" then "3", etc. How would I do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
