Using another function to trigger switch about react-native-switch-selector

[ChronSyn]

On your switch component, assign a ref prop as so;
ref={ref => this.dateSelectorSwitch = ref}

Then simply call the following (changing 0 for the index of the item to switch to);
this.dateSelectorSwitch.toggleItem(0);

Hi, i still cant get this to work, is there any other suggestions? on release build i get this error.

This error is log from xcode - e.props.showAlert is not a function

if i remove the line of code of ref = {...}, i wont get that error

@aliy321 have you solved this issue, i am facing same issue.

[naveedshahji]

I solved by changing initial={this.state.opt} on trigger change the value of the "opt"

For those using hooks, this worked for me.

const switchRef = useRef(null);

//create a ref
ref={switchRef};

//Call the following (change 0 for the index of the other item)
switchRef.current.toggleItem(0);
