BASequenceControl to complement UISegmentedControl

I recently needed something like UISegmentedControl but with "direction" theme. As a result BaseAppKit got a new control—BASequenceControl. I've tried to mimic API of the UISegmentedControl and basically it's the same except that now I support only strings in segments.

BASequenceControl

It's customizable; you can provide these two images to completely change the theme of the control:

As selected segment got changed the BASequenceControl sends UIControlEventValueChanged event just like the UISegmentedControl.

Hi - thanks so much for sharing this control! I'm hoping to utilize it in one of the projects that I'm currently working on. Quick question... I was hoping to setup the control like the "Alpha, Beta, Gamma" version you have shown in your screenshot. However, when I attempt to, it appears like the image I've attached, without showing the "tails" of the arrow in the highlight. I would greatly appreciate any quick insight you could give me on what I'm doing wrong.

  BASequenceControl *sequenceControl = [[BASequenceControl alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];

  [sequenceControl addSegmentWithTitle:@"One" animated:NO];
  [sequenceControl addSegmentWithTitle:@"Two" animated:NO];
  [sequenceControl addSegmentWithTitle:@"Three" animated:NO];   [self.view addSubview:sequenceControl];Thanks!

You have to set overlapWidth property on it; look at the sample code in BADemo project (search for BADemo on github).
