Animated transition from monthly to a weekly view

Is there some way to make an animated transition from monthly to a weekly view, something like Apple Calendar do:

Thanks in advance

Hello. This library directly "out of the box" does not provide this functionality. I have not seen this in the documentation. Maybe @patchthecode can give u some advice.

@handioq is again correct. This library is is similar to a UITableView or a UICollectionView. You have to code exactly what you want. It does not come with animation out of the box.

Adding animation to views is very simple however. Just google search for the type of animation you wish to do and jus implement it.

I do have an example of an animation that is similar to the one what you want. [edit] download the sample app attached to this repository. Then just change the code in the following function to look like this:

func calendar(_ calendar: JTAppleCalendarView, didSelectDate date: Date, cell: JTAppleDayCellView?, cellState: CellState) {
        handleCellSelection(view: cell, cellState: cellState)
        handleCellTextColor(view: cell, cellState: cellState)

        // Add this new line of code to test
        calendar.fold(withTransparency: true, completionHandler: { 
            self.calendarView.isHidden = true
        }, inDirection: .closed)
        // _____________________
    }

Run the App and tap on a date and see what happens. You will get an animation. This is just an example. But you can code any animation you want.

@numen31337 : Did u able to achieve this month view to week view and vice versa with the animation shown in the above video?Ijust want to knw if thts possible with this library

@dilip-i I'm sorry but I moved everything to the FSCalendar a long time ago, as it covers my needs a little bit more.

@numen31337 Thanks for the info.I needed a exact animation thing as in 'FSCalendar'.But unfortunately it doesnot give controls over the cell design.Can you suggest if you have other calendars with the same animation(week->month or vice versa)

[numen31337]

@dilip-i My design is completely different, you can customize your design with a custom cell, check DIY Example https://github.com/WenchaoD/FSCalendar/blob/master/Example-Swift/FSCalendarSwiftExample/DIYCalendarCell.swift

@dilip-i animations like this are custom. And can be different to every developer. Animations like this do not depend on this library. They are just regular view animations. Therefore if you can do this animation for a regular UIView, then you can just need to replace the UIView, with a JTAppleCalendarView.

One of the easiest ways to do what ever crazy animation you want is by using view snap shots. This is explained here -> https://www.appcoda.com/view-animation-in-swift/ On that link scroll down till you find this text ->

We’ll use a feature introduced in iOS 7 called UIView snapshots to fix the animation. This allows you to take a snapshot of a UIView together with its hierarchy and render it into a new UIView.

Using this approach, you can take a snapshot of a UIView, animate it to your hearts content, and then show your weekView for the calendar.
