Is there a WPF-equivalent to UWP's SplitView Hamburger Menu?

Question

The Hamburger-style SplitView control in the Universal Windows Platform is perfect, IMO. However, my project has a WPF frontend.

Does anybody know of a WPF equivalent to this (preferably open source)?

Answer 1

Using the GridSplitter control and a StoryBoard, you can set this up quite easily. You may need to tweak this code a bit to make it appear like the hamburger, but this should get you well on your way.

<UserControl
x:Class="Namespace.MainPage"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" 
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
x:Name="mainPage">

<Grid>
    <Grid.Resources>
        <Storyboard x:Name="CloseLeft">
            <DoubleAnimation x:Name="animNavLinksClose"
                             Storyboard.TargetName="mainPage" Storyboard.TargetProperty="NavLinksWidth"
                             To="0.0" Duration="00:00:00.2" />
        </Storyboard>
        <Storyboard x:Name="OpenLeft">
            <DoubleAnimation x:Name="animNavLinksOpen"
                             Storyboard.TargetName="mainPage" Storyboard.TargetProperty="NavLinksWidth"
                             From="0" To="170" Duration="00:00:00.2" />
        </Storyboard>
    </Grid.Resources>

    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <ColumnDefinition Width="170" x:Name="NavLinksColumn" />
        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
        <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

    <Grid x:Name="grdNavLinks" Grid.Column="0">
        <!-- Navigation Buttons -->
    </Grid>

    <GridSplitter x:Name="spltNavLinks" Grid.Column="1" />

    <Grid x:Name="contentSection" Grid.Column="2">
        <!-- Content or Frame -->
    </Grid>
</Grid>
</UserControl>

Then you can call your storyboard from the code-behind like this

// Begin Opening Animation
OpenLeft.Begin();

// Begin Closing Animation
CloseLeft.Begin();
