It won't stop them unless the fourth animation is animating the same property as one of your other three. In that case you can just grab the in-flight value of that property from the layer's presentationLayer and set that as your fourth animation's fromValue.

Will that work with animations that are already running?
I mean, if there are 2 or 3 animations running, and I kick off a 4th, won't that stop the 3 that are already running?

Use animation grouping. I you use groups, set beginTime with your offset for each animation's time to start. The duration of each animation must be the full duration of the entire animation put together end to end. Your group animation should also have the same duration. Here's some pseudo code.

[animation1 setDuration:15];
[animation1 setBeginTime:0];

[animation2 setDuration:15];
[animation2 setBeginTime:5];

[animation3 setDuration:15];
[animation3 setBeginTime:10];

[animationGroup setDuration:15];
[animationGroup setAnimations[NSArray arrayWithObjects:animation1, animation2, animation3, nil]];

[layer addAnimation:animationGroup forKey:nil];

Good evening (for me it is ;-) ),

I am trying to make a cool visual effect, to allow for this I need to be able to start a CAAnimation for a CALayer positioning and keep it running until it is done...

And here comes the tricky part, it needs to run even when other animations are activated within the same layer. The animations are triggered at different moments in time, I have tried to find a solution. But each time the animation stops when another is activated.

Any help here is welcome...

Thank you,
