Add documentation for the hideNavigationBar prop in the headerSearchBarOptions section. This prop maps to UIKit's UISearchController.hidesNavigationBarDuringPresentation and allows keeping the header title and buttons visible while the search bar is active. Updated in both v7 and v8 docs.

Thanks for the PR.
This is not available in Header from elements library, so it needs to be documented in native-stack-navigator.md instead of elements

I see. I've also realized that it's already documented via https://reactnavigation.org/docs/8.x/native-stack-navigator#hidenavigationbar So i'll just close this now. Thank you |

This PR adds documentation for the
hideNavigationBarprop in theheaderSearchBarOptionssection of the Elements docs.When using
headerSearchBarOptions, focusing the search bar on iOS hides the navigation bar (title and header buttons) by default. This is standardUISearchControllerbehavior controlled byhidesNavigationBarDuringPresentation. ThehideNavigationBarprop allows overriding this, but it was not documented despite being supported and passed through toreact-native-screens.Changes
hideNavigationBarentry to theheaderSearchBarOptionsprop list in:versioned_docs/version-7.x/elements.mdversioned_docs/version-8.x/elements.mdThe entry is placed alphabetically after
cancelButtonTextand beforeinputType, matching the existing format.Why
UISearchController.hidesNavigationBarDuringPresentationreact-native-screensdoes not explicitly set this totrue— it defers to the platform defaulttruevs. leaving it unset can produce different behavior on future iOS versionsheaderSearchBarOptionsmay want to preserve the liquid glass header and its buttons during searchRelated
