What did you do?

I tried skeleton, but i having one element skeletonable to OFF, makes it appear still, how about hiding it all ?

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Have an option for the element in code, to keep hidden, as long as skeletonable is active

SkeletonView Environment

SkeletonView version:
Xcode version: 10.2
Swift version: 5

Hi @i0sa, if you want to hide an element while the skeleton is active, you can use both isHidden and alpha property.
Is it valid for you?

[i0sa]

@Juanpe I still have to re-toggle this myself, I'm talking about an explicit hiding function for skeleton, that would work if i show gradient or hide skeleton, automatic

I have a similar issue.
Is there a delegate or some callback that we can use to be notified when the skeleton is activated and deactivated?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

I am also interested to know this

[diogot]

I opened a PR (#227) that will emits notifications when the skeleton state of a view changes.
I'm using it to hide specific views, it might not be the best way, but it works.

PR (#227) has been merged :)

Note that PR #339 has done exactly what i was asking for.

@i0sa did you got the solution to hide specific element

[Juanpe]

hi @Khaled-elsedek, as you can see in the readme file, you can hide an element when the skeleton is active.

/// Hiding views when the animation starts
/// Sometimes you wanna hide some view when the animation starts, so there is a quick property that you can use to make this happen:

view.isHiddenWhenSkeletonIsActive = true  // This works only when isSkeletonable = true

It's important making skeletonable the view which you want to hide
