Question 1

How to customize ContextMenu corner radius and shadow in Swift?

Question 2

ContextMenu vs UIMenuController: which is better for iOS apps?

Accepted Answer

ContextMenu is ideal for custom, animated menus with full UIViewController content, while UIMenuController is better for standard system menus with less customization. Choose based on your need for design flexibility and native integration.

Question 3

How to make ContextMenu animate from a button in my app?

Accepted Answer

Pass the button as the sourceView parameter in the show method, and ContextMenu will handle the animation and layout automatically, as demonstrated in the source view example.

Question 4

Does ContextMenu support dark mode in iOS?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since it uses native UIViewControllers, you can adapt content for dark mode within your custom view controllers. The container style overlayColor can also be set dynamically for background effects.

Question 5

How to handle user taps inside a ContextMenu content view?

Accepted Answer

Implement interaction logic directly in your custom UIViewController, as ContextMenu focuses on presentation. Use standard UIKit delegates or gestures to manage user actions within the menu.

Question 6

Can I use ContextMenu with SwiftUI projects?

Accepted Answer

Not directly; it's built for UIKit. You'd need to wrap it in a UIViewControllerRepresentable for SwiftUI, adding complexity compared to native SwiftUI menu solutions.
