Sorry, if it is an essential question.
The scheme is the following:

I want the following:
User taps last Tab
User goes to some ViewController (different from ViewController, actually connected with last Tab)
How to do this (without using segue)?
Thanks a lot in advance!
You can go with instantiateViewController with push when load your tab and push one viewController to another like below:
let next = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "nextVC")as! nextVC
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(next, animated: true)
You can assign ViewController in you UITabBarController
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
// create view controllers from storyboard
// Make sure you set Storyboard ID for both the viewcontrollers in
// Interface Builder -> Identitiy Inspector -> Storyboard ID
let clockViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("ClockViewController")
let stopWatchViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("StopWatchViewController")
// Set up the Tab Bar Controller to have two tabs
let tabBarController = UITabBarController()
tabBarController.viewControllers = [clockViewController, stopWatchViewController]
// Make the Tab Bar Controller the root view controller
window?.rootViewController = tabBarController

I have a TabBarController with two tabs Cases & Settings
I would like to take the user to CaseSummaryTVC which is nested like this
TabBarController > Cases (NavigationController, Storyboard Id = 'tvcNav' ) > CasesTVC (TableViewController) > CaseSummaryTVC (TableViewController, Storyboard Id = 'CaseSummaryTVC').
I am using the below code in AppDelegate, which takes me to the 'CaseSummaryTVC' but doesn't show the TabBar on the bottom.
let mainStoryboard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let navController = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "tvcNav") as! UINavigationController
let caseSummaryTVC = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "CaseSummaryTVC") as! CaseSummaryTVC
navController.pushViewController(caseSummaryTVC, animated: true)
self.window?.rootViewController = navController
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
It looks like you're setting your window's rootViewController to be 'navController', which doesn't seem to be wrapped in a UITabBarController.
I'm not sure what your storyboard looks like, but it sounds like you have the view hierarchy setup correctly there.
You could do one of the following:
1) Remove the programmatic view controller instantiation and have the storyboard take care of setting the rootViewController to the UITabBarController.
2) Instantiate the UITabBarController programmatically like you have done here with the other view controllers, and make sure it's set up to have the navController as one of it's tabs.
I want to send a user to a specific ViewController in my app once a notification is clicked.
I now that I can do something like this:
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let destinationViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("Home") as? HomeViewController
presentedVC?.presentViewController(destinationViewController!, animated: true, completion: nil)
But my app has a tab bar and looks like this
Tab bar
tab1: navigationController -> VC1
tab2: navigationController -> VC2 -> HomeVC
tab: navigationController -> VC3
Each tab has a navigationController as a infront of it.
So how can I send the user to HomeVC? I must first select tab 2 then the navigation controller then push the user tvice:
tab2: navigationController -> VC2 -> HomeVC
And the other problem, if there any way to tell if the user is already in HomeVC? I dont want to send the user to the same VC if his already there.
You must have access to your UITabbarController in you UIApplicationDelegate or wherever you're handling the notification tap.
let tabBar:UITabBarController = self.window?.rootViewController as! UITabBarController //or whatever your way of getting reference is
So first you'll get the reference to UINavigationController in your second tab like this:
let navInTab:UINavigationController = tabBar.viewControllers?[1] as! UINavigationController
Now push your home view at second tab's navigation controller:
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let destinationViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("Home") as? HomeViewController
navInTab.pushViewController(destinationViewController!, animated: true)
And finally switch your tab to second to show the just pushed home controller
tabBar.selectedIndex = 1
Keep in mind, this answer assumes that your application has already set the tab bar as the root view controller of application window prior handling the notification tap.
Try something like this:
if let tabBarController = window?.rootViewController as? UITabBarController {
tabBarController.selectedIndex = 1 // in your case the second tab
}
The idea is to switch to get the tab bar instance and switch it to your desired tab (where you have your view controller).
The above code works in AppDelegate / you can easily call it anywhere by getting the tabBarController instance.
You can check which tab is selected by user with the method var selectedIndex: Int. You can check which view controller is present like this self.navigationController?.presentingViewController?.presentedViewController. This will solve your problem.
I have a TapBarViewController with three Taps in my project.
Now I am trying to put a normal FirstViewController in front of the TapBar ViewController when the application launches.
The FirstViewController should have three buttons for one of the individual Taps of the TapBarViewController.
How can I show the individual Taps of the TapBarViewController by pressing one of the three buttons?

This is the exact answer you are looking for.
Steps:
Add a UIViewcontroller and embed with UINavigationViewController (Editor -> EmbedIn -> NavigationController).
Add Three button + 1 Button (Navigate to TabViewController).
Drag and drop UITabBarController to the storyboard it comes with one default ViewController and place a UILabel named as 'ButtonOneClicked'.
Create Two more ViewControllers and named as 'ButtonTwoClicked' and 'ButtonThreeClicked'.
Connect 'ButtonOne' with FirstViewController and set segue as Show and repeat the same for rest two.
Click on each segue and provide an unique Identifier name.
Then connect the UITabBarController with each UIViewController and choose viewcontrollers
Create a ButtonAction to the Tab Button.
Copy paste the below code in that action.
#IBAction func tabClicked(_ sender: Any) {
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
appDelegate.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let initialViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Tab") as! UITabBarController
appDelegate.window?.rootViewController = initialViewController
appDelegate.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()}
Hope this helps you!!
I'm working with a single view app but also I'm using Tab View controller at one case , but the Tab view Controller must be put as initial view controller to work so how I can use Tab view controller without make it as initial view Controller?
#SamahAhmed
let storyboard = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let diallerTBC = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("tabBarStoryboardId") as! MyTabbarController
//create a variable for e.g : data at MyTabbarController and set like
diallerTBC.data = "testing"
When you are clicking on button to move tabbar controller
Provide a storyboard id to tabbar and use below code
Write this as a class method in appdelegate and call it on button click
let storyboard = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let diallerTBC = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("tabBarStoryboardId") as! UITabBarController
self.window?.rootViewController = diallerTBC
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
I hope this will work
Thanks
I have 2 view controller ,and I disabled the initial view controller of first view controller ,and enabled the second view controller,but when start the project,the initial view controller is still the first view controller ,what should I do? Thanks!
Tap the second view controller, and select "Is initial View Controller" in Attributes inspector.
Alternatively you can do this with code too.
In your AppDelegate class's didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method you can write
let storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let secondVC = storyBoard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("SecondViewController") as! SecondViewController
self.window?.rootViewController = secondVC
Edit Swift 3.0
let storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let secondVC = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "SecondViewController") as! SecondViewController
self.window?.rootViewController = secondVC
Assuming that your storyboard name is Main.Storyboard and your SecondViewController Storyboard ID and Restoration ID is also set in Identity Inspector and use Storyboard ID is checked.
If you are starter like me ( both iOS and OSX mechine ) and you wanted to change the entry point within same storyboard, then,
-> long press on the entry point arrow.
-> drag it to the view controller you wish to make the starting point, the arrow will now move to your new screen.
