Layered UISegmentedControl

Question

How to create a multi-level UISegmentedControl. I need it to have 6 buttons, 3 on each line. How can I do this programmatically?

Answer 1

You will need to use two of them using the property selectedSegmentIndex. If, when you receive an action from one control, you set the value of another control property to -1, it will effectively give you a bank of six buttons in two lines that appear to be connected to each other as one group.

Answer 2

Just add the code to @Adam EberBach's answer:

AT viewDidLoad

[self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl1 addTarget:self action:@selector(disableOtherSegmentedControl:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
[self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl2 addTarget:self action:@selector(disableOtherSegmentedControl:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];

Then we realize disableOtherSegmentedControl

- (void) disableOtherSegmentedControl:(id)sender
{
    if (sender == self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl1)
    {
        self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl2.selectedSegmentIndex = -1;
    }

    else if (sender == self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl2)
    {
        self.orderOptionsSegmentedControl1.selectedSegmentIndex = -1;
    }
}
