Hey there! Let's work through this React Navigation problem you're dealing with. I've run into similar tab bar visibility issues before, so here's how you can achieve exactly what you need:

The Core Issue with Your First Attempt #

You noticed that setting tabBarVisible directly on ScreenB's navigation options doesn't work—that's because the tab bar's visibility is controlled by the parent tab navigator's child navigator (your TabA_StackNavigator), not individual screens inside the stack. So we need to dynamically toggle it based on the active route in the stack.

Fix 1: Dynamic TabBar Visibility in TabA_StackNavigator #

Depending on your React Navigation version, here's how to set this up:

For React Navigation v5/v6+

Update your TabA_StackNavigator to use a dynamic tabBarVisible option based on the current stack state:

import { createStackNavigator } from '@react-navigation/stack';
import { CardStyleInterpolators } from '@react-navigation/stack';

const TabAStack = createStackNavigator();

function TabA_StackNavigator() {
  return (
    <TabAStack.Navigator
      screenOptions={({ route }) => ({
        // Show tab bar only if the active screen is ScreenA
        tabBarVisible: route.state 
          ? route.state.routes[route.state.index].name !== 'ScreenB' 
          : true,
        // Keep the default right-to-left slide transition for stack navigations
        cardStyleInterpolator: CardStyleInterpolators.forHorizontalIOS,
      })}
    >
      <TabAStack.Screen name="ScreenA" component={ScreenA} />
      <TabAStack.Screen name="ScreenB" component={ScreenB} />
      {/* Add other screens here—they'll also hide the tab bar */}
    </TabAStack.Navigator>
  );
}

For React Navigation v4

If you're using the older v4 API, adjust your stack navigator's navigationOptions like this:

import { createStackNavigator } from 'react-navigation-stack';

const TabA_StackNavigator = createStackNavigator(
  {
    ScreenA: ScreenA,
    ScreenB: ScreenB,
  },
  {
    navigationOptions: ({ navigation }) => {
      const currentRoute = navigation.state.routes[navigation.state.index];
      return {
        tabBarVisible: currentRoute.routeName !== 'ScreenB',
      };
    },
  }
);

Why This Works #

• When you navigate from ScreenA to ScreenB, the stack updates its active route, and the tab bar automatically hides.
• The default stack transition (right-to-left slide) stays intact for the ScreenA → ScreenB navigation.
• Pressing the back button returns to ScreenA, and the tab bar reappears.
• Any additional screens you add to TabA_StackNavigator will also hide the tab bar (since we're checking if the active route isn't ScreenA)—perfect for your requirement of keeping it hidden on subsequent navigations.

Fixing Your Second Attempt (If You Prefer Separate Navigators) #

If you still want to use a separate AllScreens_StackNavigator as a sibling to LoggedIn_TabNavigator, the error you're seeing is because you need to properly nest the navigation action. Instead of trying to navigate directly to ScreenB inside the stack, first navigate to the stack navigator itself, then pass the action to navigate to ScreenB:

navigation.navigate('AllScreens_StackNavigator', {
  screen: 'ScreenB',
});

Make sure your AllScreens_StackNavigator is properly registered in your LoggedIn_StackNavigator with the correct route name, and has ScreenB as one of its screens. That said, the first solution is cleaner and avoids adding unnecessary navigators.

Give the first approach a try—it should cover all your requirements without extra complexity!
