I am trying to create a menu like the one on Instragram, with the central item using a special design, but the Titanium Documentation does not provide information about this kind of feature
There's an example with an already answered question in here: How do you create a raised tab bar item, like is found in Instagram? but I need it working on titanium, any clues?
You can mimic that by following these steps;
(This is hackish but the only way for now)
Create the tab group
var tabGroup = Titanium.UI.createTabGroup({
id:"bottomTabs",
bottom:-50
});
Add tabs as much as you need
var tabTimeline = Titanium.UI.createTab({
icon:"icons/btn_timeline#2x.png",
title:"Timeline",
});
Create a button without a title to mimic the raised tab bar like in Instagram.
var btnScan = Titanium.UI.createButton({
backgroundImage:'icons/btn_action.png',
width:46,
height:46,
title:'',
bottom:0
});
Add that button to the tab group.
tabGroup.add(btnScan);
(hope someday titanium supports more low level APIs as well)
I believe Instagram is written in Objective-C. Creating a custom tab bar as they have made involves subclassing the native tab bar, but you don't have the ability to do that with just JS and Titanium.
Here's a tutorial for faking a custom tab bar in Titanium, which involves creating a window with buttons that controls the real tab bar.

I don't know for which platform Instragram is developed in Titanium but I know about this type of tabs. I have created similar type of tab for one of my project so i can say that this is not built in tab you have to create it at your own.
you have to design icons, backgrounds, raised background and write logic to get this work same as Tab using available UI widgets like views, imageview and labe.
Hope you will be able write logic for this. According to my knowledge this is not built in tab, it's a custom tab.

I'm working on a project for the GUI of an app written in Python that requires a collapsible sidebar like this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vQIcBKdhyk&t=9s
I already created a good portion of the GUI in Kivy and KivyMD. Applied also the Navigation Drawer that works as expected. However, it is fully retracted when not active, so not exactly what was asked.
Anyone managed to create something like this?
Thank you all in advance
Using Navigation Drawer component in KivyMD, it was possible to create something almost as required. Yet, there is no partial view (with little icons that would expand when the drawer were toggled).
I am beginner in iOS app development and am creating an app where I need to create radio button and drop sown menu bar using swift .
Please suggest me, how could I do that ??
Welcome to SO. In general, this site isn't really suited to "show me how to do <development task>" questions. It's intended for specific technical questions about code you are trying to get working.
I'll take pity on you since this is your first post.
Neither radio buttons nor drop-down menus are standard iOS controls. You should consider using iOS standard user interface elements instead.
The iOS equivalent of radio buttons is a segmented control (UISegementedControl)
The iOS equivalent of a drop-down menu is a UIPickerView.
If you really want radio buttons and drop-down menus you could create them yourself, but as a beginner that is likely over your head. You might want to look for open source components that do what you need. Try checking out CocoaControls. There are lots and lots of custom controls. You can likely find what you're looking for there under a reasonable source license like the MIT license.
I am trying to recreate a popular effect that all iPhone users have seen before on their settings page. Something like when selecting a wireless network. There is normally a title that says "Available Networks" with a blue arrow icon to the right. onClick there is an accordion style slide down effect to reveal the available networks.
I am trying to recreate this to use as a drop down input for my app's settings page since iPhone does not have anything like that in their storyboard builder interface. The other issue is the options will be dynamic (coming from a database).
Has anyone seen a tutorial on this or maybe an open source app I can use as reference.
I am using iOS 6.1 using Storyboards.
EDIT
I should have spent a little more time researching I am sure I would have have this post that was very helpful regardind the actual code for the drop-down not so much the dynamic data. How to create DropDown in xcode?
I am trying to create tabs at the bottom of the screen, which has to be there through out the application and a list needs to be displayed above. Please help...
Go to this below link:
Advanced UI Components
Here you can get one zip file. In that see the UIExamplePillButtonScreen and understand it. If you want the tabs for all screens then
Write the code in one class(Ex: TabPannel.java) which extends Field and add this to any screen like:
setStatus(new TabPannel());

I have a requirement to create a ipad app that supports tab to view content. I have created a custom splitview controller, whenever user goes to a particular section in the left section, the contents related to that will be displayed in the content view(right view). If a user selects a particular link in that content view it should open a tab and display the contents of that link in that new view. Similar to Web Browser tabs i need to handle tabs in this app. Please suggest any available open source component or any ideas to implement tabbing inside a ipad app.
You can use Three20 for your tab purpose. Also there are many open Source components available. You just need to search in google.
