Toggling Visibility Of Tab Bar in iOS Programmatically

Welcome to my new tutorial. Well, it is not actually a tutorial, but merely a blog post that will show and share you a piece of codes that can be used in toggling the visibility (Showing and hiding) of your Tab Bar in iOS programmatically.

Check out the methods below, this is from stackoverflow and I failed to get the url of the answer/question.

#pragma mark - Hide/Show Tab Bar

- (void)hideTabBar:(UITabBarController *)tabbarcontroller
{
    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 animations:^{
        for (UIView *view in tabbarcontroller.view.subviews) {
            if ([view isKindOfClass:[UITabBar class]]) {
                [view setFrame:CGRectMake(view.frame.origin.x, view.frame.origin.y+49.f, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height)];
            }
            else {
                [view setFrame:CGRectMake(view.frame.origin.x, view.frame.origin.y, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height+49.f)];
            }
        }
    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {
        //do smth after animation finishes
        tabbarcontroller.tabBar.hidden = YES;
    }];
}


- (void)showTabBar:(UITabBarController *)tabbarcontroller
{
    tabbarcontroller.tabBar.hidden = NO;
    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 animations:^{
        for (UIView *view in tabbarcontroller.view.subviews) {
            if ([view isKindOfClass:[UITabBar class]]) {
                [view setFrame:CGRectMake(view.frame.origin.x, view.frame.origin.y-49.f, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height)];
            }
            else {
                [view setFrame:CGRectMake(view.frame.origin.x, view.frame.origin.y, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height-49.f)];
            }
        }
    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {
        //do smth after animation finishes
    }];
}
