Weirdly enough, this does not work:
        NSLog(@"started");
        NSViewAnimation *viewAnimation = [[NSViewAnimation alloc]
initWithViewAnimations:
                                                                          
[NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                                                                                
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
                                                                                
        sender,NSViewAnimationTargetKey,
                                                                                
        NSViewAnimationFadeOutEffect, NSViewAnimationEffectKey,
                                                                                
        [NSValue valueWithRect:NSMakeRect(200, 200, 200, 200)],

                       NSViewAnimationEndFrameKey,
                                                                                
        nil],
                                                                                
nil]];
        
        [viewAnimation setDuration:5.0];
        [viewAnimation startAnimation];
        NSLog(@"ended");

the button moves, but it does not fade out. It just disappears from
its final location and after a while appears in the middle of the
parent View.
The CoreAnimation layer is enabled for the main window's view.
Weird
