Problem with Side Navigation when switching View without using Nav Items from SideMenu about enswiftsidemenu HOT 12 OPEN

I have the same problem @fsad, you managed to solve?

from enswiftsidemenu.

@JDoes unfortunately not :( ... I managed to create a sidemenu with following tutorial: http://www.raywenderlich.com/78568/create-slide-out-navigation-panel-swift

At the bottom of the page there are the project source files to start right away.

Hi, thanks for this great work but I also have this problem...

from enswiftsidemenu.

Hi @fsad , sorry for long response.
What kind of segue do you use to return to the first VC? It probably creates a new instance of navigation controller. I would suggest don't use segue and make it programmatically.

Hi Evnaz,
I personally use a modal segue as the return segue

from enswiftsidemenu.

Hi guys,
same problem here.
@evnaz could you provide an example of doing it programmatically or maybe do a sample project to show the right way to do it?
I am using as the others segues and unwind segues and the menu disappears.

Hi @robomotic ,
Unfortunately i cant reproduce the issue, can you please post basic project with view controller's logic causing the problem.

Hi @evnaz ,
will do give me a couple of hours, I am cloning yours on mine and adding the example.
Cheers.

Here we go the demo project is here:
https://github.com/robomotic/ENSwiftSideMenu
You can see how the Menu disappears after the segue transition from ViewController to ViewController3.

I also added an unwind segue with the Back button (I couldn't do with the left swipe because that of course should trigger the menu).
Also it will be nice to have a navigation control in this case.

Let me know what you think.
Cheers!

I checked your example and noted that ViewController3 is a modal view controller, it is outside of the navigation view controller's stack, as you see in the RightSegue.swift it inserts as a subview of current window:

window?.insertSubview(secondVCView, aboveSubview: firstVCView)

The side menu can't handle gestures over the inserted view. So, side menu only works if you use a push(show) segue. To prevent back action on swipe you can disable back swipe gesture by:

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
        navigationController?.interactivePopGestureRecognizer.enabled = false
}

At the moment i don't see any way how to manage modal view controllers by side menu.

from enswiftsidemenu.

So I made a commit in the RightSeque.swift to use the push instead of mode:

-        let window = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow
-        window?.insertSubview(secondVCView, aboveSubview: firstVCView)
+        //let window = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow
+        //window?.insertSubview(secondVCView, aboveSubview: firstVCView)
+        
+        let navigat = UINavigationController()
+        navigat.pushViewController(self.destinationViewController as! UIViewController, animated: true)

But I am still unable to see the Menu,is it to do with the UINavigationController that doesn't get initialised with the one of the Menu?

Hi @robomotic ,
You don't need to use custom segue to push a view controller, just use show(push) segue.
And, yes, you create a new instance of navigation controller and then just present the destination controller as a modal view, in that case just created nav controller is not used.

Also remove this function or modify the return value in the ViewController3:

func sideMenuShouldOpenSideMenu() -> Bool {
        println("sideMenuShouldOpenSideMenu")
        return false
}
