I have always put the thing that I'm animating into the animation block:
- (IBAction)animateIt:(id)sender
{
static BOOL small = NO;
small = !small;
CGFloat newWidth = small ? self.view.frame.size.width / 2 :
self.view.frame.size.width;
[UIView animateWithDuration:1 animations:
^{
self.containerWidthConstraint.constant = newWidth;
[self.view layoutIfNeeded];
}];
}
