I was able to do this by creating a custom segue (based on this link).
Create a new segue class (see below).
Open your Storyboard and select the segue.
Set the class to PushNoAnimationSegue (or whatever you decided to call it).
Swift 4
import UIKit
/*
Move to the next screen without an animation.
*/
class PushNoAnimationSegue: UIStoryboardSegue {
override func perform() {
self.source.navigationController?.pushViewController(self.destination, animated: false)
}
}
Objective C
PushNoAnimationSegue.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
/*
Move to the next screen without an animation.
*/
@interface PushNoAnimationSegue : UIStoryboardSegue
@end
Here's a Swift version of the Segue, if anyone needs:
UPDATED FOR SWIFT 5, MAY 2020
PushNoAnimationSegue.swift
import UIKit
/// Move to the next screen without an animation
class PushNoAnimationSegue: UIStoryboardSegue {
override func perform() {
if let navigation = source.navigationController {
navigation.pushViewController(destination as UIViewController, animated: false)
}
}
PUSH WITHOUT ANIMATION : Swift Here is what worked for me.
import ObjectiveC
private var AssociatedObjectHandle: UInt8 = 0
extension UIViewController {
var isAnimationRequired:Bool {
get {
return (objc_getAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedObjectHandle) as? Bool) ?? true
}
set {
objc_setAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedObjectHandle, newValue, objc_AssociationPolicy.OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC)
}
}
}
-------------------- SilencePushSegue --------------------
class SilencePushSegue: UIStoryboardSegue {
override func perform() {
if self.source.isAnimationRequired == false {
self.source.navigationController?.pushViewController(self.destination, animated: false)
}else{
self.source.navigationController?.pushViewController(self.destination, animated: true)
}
}
}
Usage : Set the segue class from storyboard as shown in picture. set the isAnimationRequired from your viewcontroller to false from where you want to call performSegue, when you want to push segue without animation and set back to true after calling self.performSegue. Best of luck....
