UISegmentedControl deselect (make none of the segments selected)

Question

in fact the title contains my question. I have a UISegmentedControl, and need to deselect currently selected tab. I tried:

[menu setSelectedSegmentIndex:-1];
         


        

Answer 1

Setting the segmentedControl to .momentary = YES changes the way the user can interact with the segmentedControl. If you want to have nothing selected initially when the page loads but have segmentedControl behave the same after a selection is made by the user then you will want something more like this:

Swift 4 solution:

 @IBOutlet weak var segmentedControl: UISegmentedControl!

 self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = UISegmentedControlNoSegment

Swift 5.1:

 self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = UISegmentedControl.noSegment
