In the animation transitions playground for the beginning iOS animation course, it appears that in iOS 12 you can’t use the .isHidden property like this:

```
UIView.transition(
      with: beachball,
      duration: duration,
      options: beachballOptions,
      animations: {
        self.beachball.isHidden = shouldHide
      },
      completion: nil)

```

So how does one go about performing these types of transitions now?

hi @avianate,  
have you tried using `.alpha = 0` instead and in the completions `closure` set the `isHidden` to `true` or `false`

cheers,

Jayant
