How to present another view controller under tab bar on button press inside a tab bar controller view? - ios

I have 4 tabs and in the home tab, I have a button to goto profile view controller.
When I use segue, The view changes completely and it's presented over tab bar. So it gets hidden.
I want to present it under the tab bar so that I can quickly navigate to other tabs without a back button.

I am not sure if this is the right way or not. but you can add presenting viewcontroller's view as subview with the same animation.

Navigation Controller Embedded in Tab Controller - Tab Bar not visible

I have a Tab Bar Controller with 3 views embedded in it : 2 are normal ViewControllers and one is a Navigation Controller which has a ViewController with a CollectionView as in the picture below. Now when I first enter the Tab Bar Controller and navigate between the tabs, everything is fine.
If I press any object in my collectionView, a new view gets pushed onto the navigationController. The problem occurs if I then press the back button and pop that view in order to return to the view containing the collectionView. In this situation, the tab bar on the bottom of the screen becomes invisible.

Why doesn't my Tab Bar show up in the simulator?

I have a tab bar controller that controls 4 view controllers. When I run the simulator, the tab bar doesn't show up. I created the tab bar controller in a single page application by dragging it from the object library, then creating segues with ctrl-drag for views that had already been created.
I do not have a navigation controller.
The problem was that I did not have the Tab Bar Controller selected as Is Initial View Controller in the Attributes Selector. After checking this box, the tab bar showed up at the bottom of the simulator.

tab bar disppears in view from another controller ios

I have two controllers . A HomeVC and a UITabBar VC with 5 tabs. Each Tab has a view associated with it added in storyboard. Default landing page for the application is the view related to first tab. In each of the five tab views , there is a button named "menu" which takes me to the view related to HomeVC. Now, the problem is , when I press menu button and go to HomeVC's view, the tab bar does not appear. Is there a way to retain the tab bar in my Home VC's view with no tab selected?
You just have to embed your UITabBar ViewController in a Navigation Controller.

Show UITabBar while presenting a modal view

When a user taps on a UITabBar item, I would like to present a view controller modally, but I would also like the UITabBar to remain visible. When the user is finished with the modal view controller I want to dismiss it modally. Basically, I want to show one view controller on top of another and dismiss the top view controller with a modal animation, while keeping the UITabBar visible. I am thinking I have to do some sort of custom animation, but I cannot figure out how to make that work.
Anyone know how to do this for iOS 6 and iOS 7?
Modal segues coverup the previous navigation controller stack, so any existing tab, navigation, and tool bar controllers will no longer accessible. You'll either need to use a push segue to retain the existing tab bar, or add a new tab bar controller to the modal view.

Tab bar disappears when trying to go back from new view

I am very new to Xcode and have encountered an issue with my app. I am trying to create a tab bar app. On one of the tabs I have a button that brings the user to a different ViewController. I want to have it so the user can select a button that would return them to the tab that had the button. I tried to set up an action from the button to the previous view (the tabbed screen), however the tab bar disappears. I hope this is makes sense.
Here is a link to a screenshot...
Easiest way to do this is to place a UINavigationController as the root view controller of the TabBarController. You can do this in storyboard by simply ctrl+dragging from the tabbar controller to the navigation controller and adding it as a relationship.
Here's an example using storyboards:
The next step is to set the third controller (in this case the table view controller) to your player view controller class.
Then, you can use the default back button and animation that comes with the navigation controller. If you prefer to hide the navigation bar at the top of the screen, then you can use your custom back button to call
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
You can also choose custom animations / segues, etc. but using a navigation controller to help you navigate screens is probably the simplest approach.
