If you would like your Context Menu to slide in and out instead of fade in and out, all you have to do is replace two methods in the appDelegate file (@line 525) with the code below. Kittsy helped me with this code. (If you aren't ready to modify the code yourself, let me know and I can help you find a qualified Buzztouch developer for hire.) /*Slide Out Context Menu--showContextMenu and hideContextMenu methods. Replace these two methods entirely with the two methods below: showContextMenu and HideContext Menu. */ //showContextMenu... -(void)showContextMenu{ [BT_debugger showIt:self message:@"showContextMenu"]; //show the context menu's view... if(self.contextMenu != nil){ //current nav controller and view controller... BT_navController *theNavController = [self getNavigationController]; //position depends on device orientation UIInterfaceOrientation interfaceOrientation = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] statusBarOrientation]; //if the view isn't already on the nav controller..add it. contextMenu view has tag "888" BOOL haveContextMenu = FALSE; for(UIView *view in theNavController.view.subviews) { if([view tag] == 888){ haveContextMenu = TRUE; break; } } //add the subview to this controller if we don't already have it if(!haveContextMenu){ [theNavController.view addSubview:[self.contextMenu view]]; } //make mask and menu in context view full size... [self.contextMenu.mask setFrame:theNavController.view.bounds]; [self.contextMenu.menuTable setFrame:theNavController.view.bounds]; //bring context menu's view to the front so we can see it when it fades in.. [theNavController.view bringSubviewToFront:[self.contextMenu view]]; //position the menu's list to top right... int w = [self.rootDevice deviceWidth]; int h = [self.rootDevice deviceHeight]; //if landscape mode the values are opposite... if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(interfaceOrientation)){ w = [self.rootDevice deviceHeight]; h = [self.rootDevice deviceWidth]; }else{ w = [self.rootDevice deviceWidth]; h = [self.rootDevice deviceHeight]; } //table top position... int tableTop = 0; //need status bar and navBar style to determine table top position... BT_item *tmpScreenData = [self.rootApp currentScreenData]; NSString *tmpStatusStyle = [BT_strings getStyleValueForScreen:tmpScreenData nameOfProperty:@"statusBarStyle" defaultValue:@""]; NSString *tmpNavBarStyle = [BT_strings getStyleValueForScreen:tmpScreenData nameOfProperty:@"navBarStyle" defaultValue:@""]; if(![tmpStatusStyle isEqualToString:@"hidden"]){ tableTop += 20; } if(![tmpNavBarStyle isEqualToString:@"hidden"]){ //iOS 7 uses a different nav. bar height... if(floor(NSFoundationVersionNumber) > NSFoundationVersionNumber_iOS_6_1){ tableTop += 45; }else{ tableTop += 44; } } //if device is landscape, remove some pixels... if(tableTop > 0){ if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(interfaceOrientation)){ tableTop -= 12; //if this is an iPad, add a few more pixels... if([self.rootDevice isIPad]){ tableTop += 12; } } } //set table size... [contextMenu.menuTable setFrame:CGRectMake(0, tableTop, (w *.5), 350)]; //move the table to the right of the screen... CGRect frame = contextMenu.menuTable.frame; CGRect startFrame = contextMenu.menuTable.frame; CGFloat xPosition = w * .5; //when landscape the w is the height... if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(interfaceOrientation)){ xPosition = h / 2; } frame.origin.x = xPosition; startFrame.origin.x = CGRectGetWidth(window.bounds); contextMenu.menuTable.frame = startFrame; //animation block... [UIView animateWithDuration:0.25 animations:^{ [self.contextMenu.view setHidden:FALSE]; self.contextMenu.view.alpha = 0.0; self.contextMenu.view.alpha = 1.0; contextMenu.menuTable.frame = frame; } completion:^(BOOL finished){ //ignore... }]; } } //hideContextMenu... -(void)hideContextMenu{ [BT_debugger showIt:self message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"hideContextMenu %@", @""]]; //move the table to the right of the screen... CGRect startFrame = contextMenu.menuTable.frame; startFrame.origin.x = CGRectGetWidth(window.bounds); //move the the context menu off the screen and hide it if(self.contextMenu != nil){ //animate context menu... [UIView animateWithDuration:0.25 animations:^{ // self.contextMenu.view.alpha = 1.0; self.contextMenu.view.alpha = 0.0; contextMenu.menuTable.frame = startFrame; } completion:^(BOOL finished){ //ignore... }]; } }

Thank you Susan (and presumably Kittsy), I will give this a play. Cheers, Alan

Nice!! Thanks :)

excellent share! thanks Susan!

Love it, love it, luv it. Ya know that the Android lovers will be piping up soon...:-) -- Niraj

Thanks for posting. Adam

anyone know how to make the context menu height 100%?

I am guessing you should modify the frame parameters. Play with this line: [contextMenu.menuTable setFrame:CGRectMake(0, tableTop, (w *.5), 350)]; That is x,y,w,h Try replacing 350 with h - tableTop, that will set the height of the table to be the device height minus height of the Statusbar and height of Navbar. No promises. Just guesses from reading Susan-Kittsy code on this post. -- Niraj
