Hi all,
Is it possible to temporarily hide the bottom tab navigator from a screen. Reason is I am pulling cloud data into the app and want the user to wait to complete the download.
I have tried using a label with solid colour fill to blank off the navigator whilst data is transferred, but the label can only extend covering the screen (excluding the navigator)
Any ideas would be great appreciated
@nuuzonessqnzvv It’s not possible to hide the bottom tab navigator from the UI components. If you wanted to have one that is hidden while data is loading, you’d need to create your own (probably best done via a module so you can easily import it into each screen.)
The other option could be to set up a loading state screen so that while the data is downloading, you take your user to a screen that looks like the screen but is not yet filled with any information. Once the loading is complete, you can take them back to the actual functioning screen.
Facebook has a great example of this.
Hi @matt_conroy
Cheers for clarifying. I’m yet to use modules so will have a look at that.
