Time delay of texts in label in swift 3 - ios

Question

I have a label. And I have 3 strings. I need to display text of 3 strings in the same label with delay of 10 seconds over a infinite loop. How can i solve this with simple animations in swift 3?

Answer 1

That's my solution. Just connect a UILabel to the IBOutlet
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var textLabel: UILabel!
let messages = ["PROFESSIONAL AND BEST LEARNING CENTER","LEARNING TECHNOLOGY AND DESIGN IN A SMART WAY","EXPLORE YOUR SKILLS"]
let delayTime = 10.0
var counter = 0
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: delayTime, target: self, selector: #selector(changeDisplayedText), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
timer.fire()
}
func changeDisplayedText() {
textLabel.text = messages[counter % messages.count]
counter += 1
}
}

This will work for your, connect your outlet properly and declare those string in an array and load it with timer change.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var label: UILabel!
var array = ["Aaaaaaaaaaa", "Bbbbbbbbbbb", "Ccccccccccc"]
var scrollIndex = 0
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 2, target: self, selector: #selector(self.myDelayedFunction), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
timer.fire()
}
func myDelayedFunction()-> Void {
let count = self.array.count
if scrollIndex == count {
scrollIndex = 0
}
if scrollIndex < count {
if count > 1{
self.label.text = array[scrollIndex]
self.scrollIndex += 1
}
}
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

}
