let animatedImage = FLAnimatedImage(animatedGIFData: data)
animatedImageView.animatedImage = animatedImage
}
}
“`
“`objective-c
NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@”animated_image” ofType:@”gif”];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
FLAnimatedImage *animatedImage = [FLAnimatedImage animatedImageWithGIFData:data];
animatedImageView.animatedImage = animatedImage;
“`
- Add the
animatedImageView

- progressiveRenderingEnabled: Enable or disable progressive rendering. When enabled, the image is displayed as it loads.
- animationRepeatCount: Set the number of times the animation should repeat. Use
0
for continuous looping. - animationDuration: Specify the duration for each animation cycle.
