UIMultiPicker
UIMultiPicker
is UIPickerView
extension to support multiple selection.
The goal was to implement UI control mobile Safari uses to handle input for <select multiple>
tag.
UIMultiPicker subclasses UIControl
and sends .valueChanged
action when any value is picked or unpicked (i.e. selection is changed).
Usage
class ViewController: UIViewController {
static let TASTES = [
"Sweet",
"Sour",
"Bitter",
"Salty",
"Umami"
];
@IBOutlet weak var tastesPicker: UIMultiPicker!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Model
tastesPicker.options = ViewController.TASTES
tastesPicker.selectedIndexes = [0,2]
// Styling
tastesPicker.color = .gray
tastesPicker.tintColor = .black
tastesPicker.font = .systemFont(ofSize: 30, weight: .bold)
// Add selection listener
tastesPicker.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.selected(_:)), for: .valueChanged)
tastesPicker.highlight(2, animated: false) // centering "Bitter"
}
@objc func selected(_ sender: UIMultiPicker) {
print(sender.selectedIndexes)
}
}
