Just wondering if it is possible to create sections with section headers like in a UITableView?

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry for the very late reply. It won't work out of the box, since DropDownMenu.menuCells is a flat array.

To work around this, you can probably do something along these lines:

subclass DropDownMenu
add variable menuCellsBySection that gets updated every time menuCells is updated
override the following UITableViewDataSource/Delegate methods to use menuCellsBySection
- numberOfSections(in:)
- tableView(_:, numberOfRowsInSection:)
- tableView(_:, heightForRowAt:)
- tableView(_:, cellForRowAt:)
- `tableView(_:, shouldHighlightRowAt:)``
- tableView(_:, didSelectRowAt:)
override selectMenuCell(_:) to take in account the section

It's probably not exactly easy to do, but if you take a look at the source code, it should be doable.

In the long run, DropDownMenuKit could support sections out of the box or I might tweak the API to simplify the workaround above.
