I'm trying to make same affect, as instagram has in their header. How can I do this?
I tried a lot of solutions.
Best - https://github.com/andreamazz/AMScrollingNavbar
But it has one big problem - it's moving bar using uipangesturerecognizer. It's bad for me, because I want to show bar, if table is at the top.
I tried to change work of this control to scroll view delegate, but found a lot of problems with it, have you any ideas, how they made this?
I found THE solution, just like you said - you have to mess around with the scroll view delegate a little bit, but after some 2 hours I had it all figured out. The problem i was trying to solve was to be able to get the header out in one continuous motion just like you do in Instagram.
So, first check out the xib setup, it has a header view at (0 20, 320 85), which is right behind a table view at (0 20, 320 548)
So here is what it looks like after launch (table view frame in yellow):
This is what i want it to look like after pulling down (header frame in red):
So I'll just paste the code with comments, i hope its understandable enough.
Make a define
#define SIGNIFICANT_SCROLLING_DISTANCE 200
Create two properties
@property (nonatomic) CGFloat lastScrollViewOffsetY;
@property (nonatomic) CGFloat distancePulledDownwards;
Than add the following implementation for scrollViewDidScroll
delegate method
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
// store current scroll view frame as we will change it later on and set it
// back to the scroll view in the very end
CGRect currentScrollViewRect = scrollView.frame;
// same with the content offset
CGPoint currentScrollViewOffset = scrollView.contentOffset;
CGFloat offsetShiftY = self.lastScrollViewOffsetY - scrollView.contentOffset.y;
if (offsetShiftY > 0) {
// pulling downwards
// keep trrack of the distance that we pulled downwards
self.distancePulledDownwards += offsetShiftY;
// header opens (table view shifts its frame down) in two cases:
// 1. contentOffset.y<0
// 2. scrolled downwards a significant amount or header is already open
// but in both cases we have to make sure that it doesn't open further than we want it to
CGFloat wantedOriginY = currentScrollViewRect.origin.y;
if ((scrollView.contentOffset.y<0) || (self.distancePulledDownwards > SIGNIFICANT_SCROLLING_DISTANCE) || (currentScrollViewRect.origin.y>20)){
// shift scroll views frame by offset shift
wantedOriginY = currentScrollViewRect.origin.y + offsetShiftY;
// compensate that shift by moving content offset back
currentScrollViewOffset.y += (wantedOriginY <= 105) ? offsetShiftY : 0;
}
currentScrollViewRect.origin.y = (wantedOriginY <= 105) ? wantedOriginY : 105;
}
else {
// pulling upwards
self.distancePulledDownwards = 0;
// header closes (table view shifts its frame up) in one case: when it is open =) (and contentOffset.y>0 to eliminate closing on bounce)
if (scrollView.contentOffset.y > 0) {
CGFloat wantedOriginY = currentScrollViewRect.origin.y + offsetShiftY;
currentScrollViewRect.origin.y = (wantedOriginY >= 20) ? wantedOriginY : 20;
currentScrollViewOffset.y += (wantedOriginY >= 20) ? offsetShiftY : 0;
}
}
// set the changed (if it was changed at all) frame to the scroll view
[scrollView setFrame:currentScrollViewRect];
// correct offset using a special trick
// it ensures that scrollViewDidScroll: won't be called on setting the offset
scrollView.delegate = nil;
[scrollView setContentOffset:currentScrollViewOffset];
scrollView.delegate = self;
// and finally remember the current offset as the last
self.lastScrollViewOffsetY = scrollView.contentOffset.y;
}
And enjoy your smooth table scrolling back and forth on the screen =)
This can also be modified, you can add and resize a header so that it is basically identical to the Instagram one.
Use AMScrollingNavbar with your tableViewController and override the willDisplayCell
method to show the bar if table is scrolled to top:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (indexPath.row == 0) {
[self showNavbar];
}
}
You can use the below mentioned method in your class in which you want to add effect on navigation bar as there in Instagram.
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender {
//Initializing the views and the new frame sizes.
UINavigationBar *navbar =self.navigationController.navigationBar;
UIView *tableView = self.view;
CGRect navBarFrame = self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame;
CGRect tableFrame = self.view.frame;
//changing the origin.y based on the current scroll view.
//Adding +20 for the Status Bar since the offset is tied into that.
if (isiOS7) {
navBarFrame.origin.y = MIN(0, MAX(-44, (sender.contentOffset.y * -1))) +20 ;
tableFrame.origin.y = navBarFrame.origin.y + navBarFrame.size.height;
}else{
navBarFrame.origin.y = MIN(0, (sender.contentOffset.y * -1)) +20;
tableFrame.origin.y = MIN(0,MAX(-44,(sender.contentOffset.y * -1))) ;
}
navbar.frame = navBarFrame;
tableView.frame = tableFrame;
}
Using that library, add this to your view controller:
- (BOOL)scrollViewShouldScrollToTop {
[self showNavbar];
return YES;
}
