CABasicAnimation resets to initial value after animation completes

Question

I am rotating a CALayer and trying to stop it at its final position after animation is completed.

But after animation completes it resets to its initial position.

Answer 1

Here's the answer, it's a combination of my answer and Krishnan's.

cabasicanimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards;
cabasicanimation.removedOnCompletion = NO;

The default value is kCAFillModeRemoved. (Which is the reset behavior you're seeing.)
