iPhone Coverflow

Question

I need to implement cover flow functionality to our iPhone application. I tried to find sample code online to get started with it, but I didn't have any luck. Can anyone tell me how to implement cover flow functionality or give me a sample?

Thanks In Advance!

Answer 1

This one looks promising:

Seems to be more actively maintained than the other two suggested above.

Answer 2

You might also want to check out a library I released at iPhoneDevCamp -- OpenFlow. http://apparentlogic.com/openflow

It is all core animation-based, so it's easy to understand and customize to your needs. AFOpenFlowView is a subclass of UIView.

I included a demo application, and check out the blog entry on my personal website for a bit more information about its use. fajkowski.com

Try FlowCover at

http://www.chaosinmotion.com/flowcover.m

the source code provides you with a FlowCoverView realizing the coverflow effect. You simply need to customize a few delegate methods. Take a look at the example source code, customizing it to suit your needs should be straightforward.
