Allow to change "container" element on Image component
See original GitHub issueIs your feature request related to a problem? Please Describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I’m always frustrated when […]
Sometimes I want to animate the Image component and its parent/wrapper component, I’d have to wrap the Image with another Animated.View and add animated values to the this Animated.View style props. containerStyle on the Image component refers to a normal non-animated View so adding animated value to containerStyle results in an error.
Describe the solution you’d like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.
Add a container prop to Image component that will receive a different component other than View. Allowing modifying the container using prop will reduce the hierarchy to the component tree.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you’ve considered.
If a container prop doesn’t cut it, allow a prop to notify the Image component that its parent should be an Animated component. However, I think this alternative approach would be bad because there is not one defactor Animation library out there. How to determine which Animated API to use would be a hassle. (or impossible)
