EMLMenuBar

Description

Implements a scrollable view with buttons in it. Offers different delegate methods to use it as a menu bar and some design and animation customization.

Requirements

• iOS 7.0
• ARC

Usage

Check the example project in the "Example" folder.

Quick setup

1. Create a UIView in Interface Builder with EMLMenuBar as a class. (The buttons will have the height of this view)

2. Adopt EMLMenuBarDataSource and EMLMEnuBarDelegate into your UIViewController.

@interface EMLMainViewController : UIViewController <EMLMenuBarDelegate, EMLMenuBarDataSource>

3. Assign the delegate and datasource to your UIViewController.

4. Implement the EMLMenuBarDataSource and its required methods:

- (NSUInteger)itemCountInMenuBar:(EMLMenuBar *)menuBar;
- (NSString *)itemTitleAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index inMenuBar:(EMLMenuBar *)menuBar;

5. Implement the EMLMEnuBarDelegate and its required method:

- (void)itemSelectedAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index inMenuBar:(EMLMenuBar *)menuBar;

6. Init the menu bar in you 'viewDidLoad:':

   - (void)viewDidLoad
   {
       [super viewDidLoad];
   
       [self.menuBar setup];
       self.menuBar.selectedItemIndex = 0;
   }

Customization

• Choose one of the three types of button alineation:

  EMLMenuBarStyleNone (Default). The width is the one set in EMLMenuBarDataSource.

  EMLMenuBarStyleFitText

  EMLMenuBarStyleFillMenu

• Modify the button design through interface builder with EMLMenuBarButton xib file:

EMLMenuBarButton.xib

• Create your own animation with:

- (void)appearanceForNormalStateMenuBarButton:(EMLMenuBarButton *)barButton;
- (void)appearanceForSelectedStateMenuBarButton:(EMLMenuBarButton *)barButton;
