pickerStyle#

The pickerStyle property allows you to customize the appearance and behavior of pickers within a view hierarchy in your UI.

Property Declaration#

1pickerStyle?: PickerStyle;

Description#

The pickerStyle property sets the visual style of pickers, enabling you to adapt them to the context and desired user experience.

Accepted Values#

The pickerStyle property accepts the following string values:

• automatic: The default picker style, adapting to the picker’s context.
• inline: Displays each option inline with other views in the current container.
• menu: Presents the options as a menu when the user presses a button or as a submenu when nested within a larger menu.
• navigationLink: Represents a picker style where the options are presented by pushing a List-style picker view via a navigation link.
• palette: Presents the options as a row of compact elements.
• segmented: Displays the options in a segmented control.
• wheel: Displays the options in a scrollable wheel, showing the selected option and a few neighboring options.

Default Behavior#

If pickerStyle is not specified, the default style (automatic) is applied based on the picker’s context.

Usage Example#

Here’s how you can apply the pickerStyle property in your TypeScript code:

Example: Inline Picker Style#

1function View() {
2  const [
3    value,
4    setValue
5  ] = useState(0)
6
7  return <Picker
8    title="Picker"
9    pickerStyle="inline"
10    value={value}
11    onChanged={(value) => {
12      setValue(value)
13      console.log('Selected:', value)
14    }}
15  >
16    <Text tag={0}>Option 1</Text>
17    <Text tag={1}>Option 2</Text>
18    <Text tag={2}>Option 3</Text>
19  </Picker>
20}

This creates a picker with an inline style.

Example: Segmented Picker Style#

1function View() {
2  const [
3    value,
4    setValue
5  ] = useState(0)
6
7  return <Picker
8    title="Picker"
9    pickerStyle="segmented"
10    value={value}
11    onChanged={(value) => {
12      setValue(value)
13      console.log('Selected:', value)
14    }}
15  >
16    <Text tag={0}>Option 1</Text>
17    <Text tag={1}>Option 2</Text>
18    <Text tag={2}>Option 3</Text>
19  </Picker>
20}

This creates a picker displayed in a segmented control.

Example: Wheel Picker Style#

1function View() {
2  const [
3    value,
4    setValue
5  ] = useState(0)
6
7  return <Picker
8    title="Picker"
9    pickerStyle="wheel"
10    value={value}
11    onChanged={(value) => {
12      setValue(value)
13      console.log('Selected:', value)
14    }}
15  >
16    <Text tag={0}>Option 1</Text>
17    <Text tag={1}>Option 2</Text>
18    <Text tag={2}>Option 3</Text>
19  </Picker>
20}

This creates a picker with a scrollable wheel style.

Notes#

• The pickerStyle property directly maps to SwiftUI’s pickerStyle modifier.
• Ensure the string value matches one of the predefined styles listed above to avoid runtime errors.

With pickerStyle, you can customize the appearance of pickers to suit various contexts and provide a seamless user experience.
