Show horizontal menu to a UITableViewCell with chain animation

by iOS Example

WBChainMenu

An Option Menu with chain animation has below mentioned features:

  • Menu on top of UItableViewCell which can come out from left to right or vice versa.
  • Menu Action button with: image only*
  • Animated expansion from left, right.
  • Custom Menu Items: Background Image

Background

I have used many menus for a tableviewcell but WBChainMenu is used where we have lengthy number of menu items and needs to display in one view.

Expansion Styles

The expansion style describes the behavior when we call the open and close function of Menu View.

Left Right

Chain Menu View

let container = MenuChainView(configure: contentView, position: Position(positionX: .left, positionY: .center))

we can further customize Menu View with the below optional fields

container.actionButtonBackColor = UIColor.brown
container.actionButtonHeight = 40.0
container.actionButtonWidth = 30.0
container.actionButtonImage = _imageNames[0]
container.actionButtonMarginX = 0
container.actionButtonMarginY = 0
container.chainAnimation = false
container.animationDuration = 5.0
container.itemSpace = 50.0

Left/Right and Top/Center/Bottom

We have to inilialize position object which contains horizontal/vertical position of the layout and assigin it to MenuChainView

Position(positionX: .left, positionY: .center)

Chain Menu Item View

let item1 = MenuChainItem(UIImage)
let item2 = MenuChainItem(UIImage)
let item3 = MenuChainItem(UIImage)
let item4 = MenuChainItem(UIImage)
        
container?.items = [item1, item2, item3, item4]

we can further customize Menu View with the below optional fields

item.itemWidth = 40.0
item.itemHeight = 50.0
item.backgroundColor = UIColor.blue
