Using React-Navigation in my app, I want the initialRoute to be the "Home" component with the BottomTabNavigator shown. But I do not want Home to be one of the tabs. Adding initialRouteName="Home" shows Home as the initial route but does not show the tabs. Without initialRoute I get the tabs but not the Home Screen as the initial.
I have a nested React Navigation set up like this:
const MyTabs = () =>{
return (
<Tab.Navigator>
<Tab.Screen name="About" component={AboutStack} />
<Tab.Screen name="Setting" component={SettingStack} />
</Tab.Navigator>
);
}
const MyStack = () => {
return (
<Stack.Navigator initialRouteName="Home">
<Stack.Screen name="Tabs" component={MyTabs} />
<Stack.Screen name="Home" component={HomeStack} />
</Stack.Navigator>
);
}
This seems like it should be relatively simple to implement, but I've searched far and wide for another similar question and I've tried a number of different nesting setups to no avail.
Running: "@react-navigation/stack": "^6.0.7", or "latest"
Here is a snack of the full test code: https://snack.expo.dev/@dezpo/nestednavigator_homepage_notintab
Any help greatly appreciated.
Actually I got this sorted... couldn't have been easier
tabBarItemStyle: { display: "none" }
🤦♂️
so my final navigators looked like this with "Home" as one of my BottomTabs
const MyTabs = () =>{
return (
<Tab.Navigator >
<Tab.Screen name="Home" component={HomeStack}
options={{
tabBarItemStyle: { display: "none" },
}}/>
<Tab.Screen name="About" component={AboutStack} />
<Tab.Screen name="Setting" component={SettingStack} />
</Tab.Navigator>
);
}
const MyStack = () => {
return (
<Stack.Navigator initialRouteName="Home"
screenOptions={{
headerShown: false
}}>
<Stack.Screen name="Tabs" component={MyTabs} />
</Stack.Navigator>
);
}

Seems like there is probably a better solution out there but this does the trick for now.
