Rotating a view in iOS - ios

Question

I have a UIView in my view. Right now I have a button moving the UIView on it's y axis. Here is my code
CGRect frame2 = self.test22.frame;
frame2.origin.y -= 1.f/[UIScreen mainScreen].scale; //however many pixels to the right..
self.test22.frame = frame2;
But how can I rotate it? Except using the x or y axis. I want to be able to move the UIView by rotation by 1.f.

Answer 1

To Rotate the UIView create the object of UIView (*view) and make transform on it
Lets to rotate the view 90 degree use below code
CGAffineTransform r_transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
r_transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(r_transform,DegreeYoRadians(90));
view.transform = r_transform;

Answer 2

Welcome to SO. You want to look at the UIView method animateWithDuration, and the view's transform property. You'd apply a rotation transform to the view in your animation block. Note that if you change a view's transform, you should not read or write the frame property. Instead use the center property to change the position and the bounds.size property if you need to change the size.
Your code might look like this:
[UIView animateWithDuration: .25
animations: ^
{
self.test22.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI/2);
CGPoint center = self.test22.center;
center.y -= 1;
self.test22.center = center;
}
];
EDIT:
I have no idea what you mean when you say "I want to be able to move the UIView by rotation by 1.f." Rotating a view is not moving it, it's rotating it. And rotation is expressed as an angle, not a value like "1". Furthermore, the angle is in radians, where π is 180 degrees, π/2 is 90 degrees, and 2π is a full-circle rotation (or no change, since it puts the rotation back at it's original value.) You have to think in terms of fractions of 2π when you do rotations. Or you can use degrees and convert to radians, where:
degrees = radians * 180/π
Also, your code that moves the view will only change the view's position by half a point on retina displays which doesn't make much sense.
