I want to slide a transparent menu in from the left

example of slide out menu

I would like to implement a menu as shown above. I'm a total iOS newbie. I've been searching for that kind of control since couple of days.

Can someone guide me step by step, from scratch?

You can implement the above in following steps :-

1>Left Menu view is a UIView added as a subview with various cutom UIButtons over it added as subview.

2>Initially you have to set the frame so that only a particular part of the view is shown(Panel Part).

3> On the click of indicator button , expand the frame to its full to show the buttons.

4>On next click i.e(odd clicks) collase the frame.

Above animation can be achieved using simple UIView Animation.

Sample code(Original frame width=300,Height 300) :-

yourMenuView.frame=CGRectMake(0,10,100,300);

[yourViewController addSubview:yourMenuView];

-(IBAction)expandMenu:(id)sender
{
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.75];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseIn];
CGRect frame=yourMenuView.frame;
frame.size.width+=200;
yourMenuView.frame=frame;
[myview removeFromSuperview];
[UIView commitAnimations];
}

-(IBAction)collapseMenu:(id)sender
{
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.75];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseIn];
CGRect frame=yourMenuView.frame;
frame.size.width-=200;
yourMenuView.frame=frame;
[myview removeFromSuperview];
[UIView commitAnimations];

}
