Issue when sliding from a long string to a shorter one

[Deub27]

When using custom strings with different lengths in popUpView label, if you slide from a long string to a shorter string, the long string remains appearing a bit while target popupview size is already drawn.
It can be seen in your demo project.

A quick fix for this is to prevent animation of "contents" for the _textLayer inside ASValuePopUpView In - (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame, set the following options for _textLayer.actions.

 _textLayer.actions = @{@"bounds" : [NSNull null], @"position" : [NSNull null], @"contents" : [NSNull null]};

The text values will now update without any animation, solving this particular issue.

I'll need to look into this a bit closer to only disable the contents animation when the string length becomes shorter.

Many thanks for this quick correction.
It will do the trick waiting for animating it again ;-)

Many moons later…

The default is now to not animate the text (currently in development branch - will be merged to master on next release). Creating a mixed solution that would animate by default and temporarily stop animating when the results are glitchy would add code complexity for very little benefit.
