How do I create a hiding/unhiding nav bar like what pinterest and many other apps is doing? I know the basic idea is to use the UIScrollView delegate and detect whether I am scrolling up or down and show the nav bar based on that. So should I also adjust the navcontroller view height if the nav bar is hidden? How does this work?
I have a sample project located on github that does exactly the pinterest/piictu style 'hide the UINavigationController / UITabBarController stuff'
I've tried https://github.com/tonymillion/ExpandingView and ran into a bunch of issues.
I ended up rolling my own navigation controller to get all the animations synced and used this scrollview code to figure out if I should expand or contract. iOS >=5.0
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
MyCustomNavController* navController = (MyCustomNavController*)self.parentViewController;
if( [scrollView.panGestureRecognizer translationInView:self.view].y < 0.0f ) {
[navController setExpanded:YES animated:YES];
} else if ([scrollView.panGestureRecognizer translationInView:self.view].y > 0.0f ) {
[navController setExpanded:NO animated:YES];
}
}
