How to hide navigation bar when image is tapped - ios

Question

How would I hide the navigation bar once my imageView is tapped, the navigation bar messes up the view of the full screen image once my imageView is tapped and I would like it hidden when the image is tapped and to reappear once the image is dismissed. Here is my code for my image being tapped.
//expandImage
#IBAction func expand(_ sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
let imageView = sender.view as! UIImageView
let newImageView = UIImageView(image: imageView.image)
newImageView.frame = self.view.frame
newImageView.backgroundColor = .black
newImageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
newImageView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
let tap = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(dismissFullscreen))
newImageView.addGestureRecognizer(tap)
self.view.addSubview(newImageView)
}
func dismissFullscreen(_ sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
sender.view?.removeFromSuperview()
}

Answer 1

Add this to your expand() method:
self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: true)
And in dismissFullscreen() method:
self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: true)
Or you can create new ViewController, pass image to it (with segue e.g) and add this to viewDidLoad() of new ViewController:
self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnTap = true

Answer 2

So here is how you can do that:
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var imageView: UIImageView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let tapImageScrollView = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(imageTapped(_:)))
imageView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
imageView.addGestureRecognizer(tapImageScrollView)
}
func imageTapped(_ sender: UIGestureRecognizer) {
if self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isHidden == false {
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isHidden = true
} else {
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isHidden = false
}
}
}
So basically add a UITapGestureRecognizer to your imageView and in the imageTapped function you check if the navigationBar is not hidden then you want to show the image and hide the navigationBar and if you click on the imageView again you want to show the navigationBar again.
So simply add the logic in imageTapped to your dismissFullscreen function.
