# TOMSMorphingLabel
Configurable morphing transitions between text values of a label.
Triggering the animation is as easy as setting the labels `text` property.
## Demo
## Installation with CocoaPods
TOMSMorphingLabel is available through [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org). To install
it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:
#### Podfile
```ruby
platform :ios, '7.0'
pod "TOMSMorphingLabel", "~> 0.5"
```
## Usage
Instantiate TOMSMorphingLabel as you would do with an UILabel results in a fully working thus morphing label.
```objective-c
TOMSMorphingLabel *label = [[TOMSMorphingLabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 42, self.view.frame.size.width, 42)];
[self.view addSubview:label];
```
Setting - and particularly changing - the labels text property will automatically morph the labels previous text to the new value.
```objective-c
label.text = @"Swift";
```
Setting the labels text property using `setText:withCompletionBlock` will morph the labels as well as triggering the completion block when the animation is finished.
```objective-c
[label setText:@"Swift" withCompletionBlock:^{
NSLog(@"label.text is now 'Swift'");
}];
```
Note that the label will execute only one morph transition at a time. If the text value of the label changes during a transition - even if it changes multiple times - the label will invoke a transition to the youngest text value that was set.
## Customization
TOMSMorphingLabel provides the possibility to configure the morphing transitions look and feel.
The configurable properties are defined as follows:
configurable properties
animationDuration: CGFloat
Time that elapses between the setting of a new text value and the end of the morphing transition. Default: 0.37
characterAnimationOffset: CGFloat
Spatial propagation speed of the character shrink and alpha effect. Default: 0.25
characterShrinkFactor: CGFloat
Factor that the scale of a completely disappeared character is divided by. Default: 4
morphingEnabled: BOOL
Defines whether the morphing transition between text values is enabled. Default: YES
