Cancel a UIView animation?

The way I do it is to create a new animation to your end point. Set a very short duration and make sure you use the +setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState: method to start from the current state. When you set it to YES, the current animation is cut short. Looks something like this:

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.1];
[UIView setAnimationCurve: UIViewAnimationCurveLinear];
// other animation properties

// set view properties

[UIView commitAnimations];

Use:

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

.......

[myView.layer removeAllAnimations];
