Hiding/Showing the navigation Bar on menu Reveal/Hide

[PeerLabs]

New to iOS so forgive me if this seems basic....

With the following SideMenuController Configuration...

// SideMenu Drawing Configuration
SideMenuController.preferences.drawing.menuButtonImage = UIImage(named: "menuButtonIcon")
SideMenuController.preferences.drawing.sidePanelWidth = 250
SideMenuController.preferences.drawing.centerPanelShadow = true
SideMenuController.preferences.drawing.sidePanelPosition = .overCenterPanelLeft

    // SideMenu Animating Configuration
    SideMenuController.preferences.animating.transitionAnimator = FadeAnimator.self
    SideMenuController.preferences.animating.statusBarBehaviour = .horizontalPan
    
    // SideMenu Interaction Configuration
    SideMenuController.preferences.interaction.panningEnabled = true
    SideMenuController.preferences.interaction.swipingEnabled = true

I want the following behaviour:

• When the menu reveals itself... I want the NavBar to hide itself (this is because the Menu is actually going to be a transparent overlay)
• When the menu hides itself... I want the NavBar to reveal itself

Any ideas?

I tried to Hide/Show the navbar with the following:

func sideMenuControllerDidHide(_ sideMenuController: SideMenuController) {

    log.debug("Started!")
    
    self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = false
    self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnSwipe = false
    self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnTap = false

    
}

func sideMenuControllerDidReveal(_ sideMenuController: SideMenuController) {
    
    log.debug("Started!")
    self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnSwipe = true
    self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnTap = true
    self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = true

}

But to no avail...

Appreciate some guidance
