I have a tab bar, an every item of it embedded in navigation controller, and several child viewControllers!
and I have a pop up view which I created in a new viewController!! to show my popUp I had to choose "present modally"!
when I go to a new viewController from my popUp on pressing button, it's not embedded in my navigation controller!
is there any way to fix it?
and the new viewControl also stays embed in navigation to show my tab bar
Unfortunately, what you are trying to achieve is not right, and please do not proceed with your initial plan.
I strongly believe a quick look at this could help you understand better UINavigationController and the difference between push vs present UIViewController in iOS.
As an answer to your question, you can imitate your wanted behaviour, but there is no direct native iOS way to accomplished your goal. Better, use pushViewController:animated: instead of present. More in the apple dev site - here.

I am trying to implement Navigation Drawer like menu on my iPhone project.
I have looked at the forums and find out there are many samples given in this link:
Stackoverflow Navigation drawer query
But, they have not helped me much. Because, all the apps are developed Navigation drawer in the Home screen(1st view) of the app itself and using window.rootViewController
My requirement is, I need Navigation Drawer like menu NOT in the home screen(1st view) of the app, rather need on the 2nd view of the app, hence I don't know how to add this feature.
Could someone please suggest me how to add navigation drawer like menu feature in later views(for ex: 2nd view) of the app?
I don't quite get how you want the menu. You can add Navigation Controller anywhere you want, all it's going to do is give you a Navigation Bar on which you can give a title and a Back button, usually with the name of the title of the previous page.
You can simply add the navigation where you want and control drag from the view or object you want to perform the segue. If it's a button you can use an IBAction with a performSegueWithIdentifier method.
Hope I could help
I have a UITabBarController to whose controllers I would like to attach navigation. So I inserted the NavigationController as the entry controller, and the tabBarController as its root. All seems working fine, but for the tabBar. Basically it does not show, albeit the StoryBoard I attach seems to say differently. I also attach the Account Screen not showing any navigation bar nor, of course, any back button.
Thanks,
Fabrizio
Just a quick answer. I think you should put UINavigationController inside the TabBarController instead of the other way round. It will solve most of your problems.
Steps: Editor -> Embed in -> Navigation Controller
See the below screen shot on how to add a Navigation Controller to a View Controller.
You are following wrong approach, IOS does not allow you to use tabbarview controller as root of navigation controller, it always display black screen. I have faced same problem and as a solution i have added navigation bar after tabbar controller. Yes it becomes difficult to manage, but you can use that way and it will work.
If you use programmatic approach instead of storyboard then it is possible, see this link
Even you can try from Editor option of XCODE, select tabbar controller you have added from storyboad then go to Editor->Embedded in, you will see that navigation bar controller is disable.
This is also give you idea that it will not work.
I have built some view controllers in storyboard like in the picture below
I already implemented the data inside them, modal segue is used for transitions in between. Now I just realise when I push "back" button, previous view won't be properly loaded. I figure I should switch to navigation controller and add those controllers in stack instead. But I don't know how to go from where I am now.
I think I should make changes programmatically because I found building navigation controller in storyboard won't have much variation in UI design (at least I don't know how to implement existing pages in that way). So what should I do to implement programmatically? Please help me, thanks!
Select Category View Controller and go to menu: Editor > Embed In > Navigation Controller. Then change segues style from Modal to Push.
This is a simple question. So I have a tabbed bar application with a More... tab button. I was wondering if it's possible to make the More... button be a slide out menu button? I found tutorials on how to do it on a regular app design but things get a little more complicated when it comes to the tabbed bar application.
The thing is that you don't own the More button in the tab bar of a UITabBarController, so you can't control what happens. (You can access the navigation controller that appears when the More button is tapped, but it's still going to be just another view controller whose view is displayed above the tab bar.) If you want to write a new interface you'll have to write a whole new interface, i.e. don't use the built-in UITabBarController. That's no big deal; it isn't doing anything you can't manage to do yourself.
I am using custom popover controller(WYPopoverController) for iPhone and showing UIReferenceLibraryViewController in it. The view does come perfectly but UIReferenceLibraryViewController has 'Done' button on its navigation bar and when I click on it, it does not respond. Though if I click outside the popover then popover disappears. I simply want to disappear popover when 'Done' button is pressed.
Please note, if I use UIPopoverController for iPad, then 'Done' button in UIReferenceLibraryViewController does respond. Not sure what am I missing in custom implementation.
Any help is much appreciated.
The problem to me seems like part of a terrible design by Apple, where the reference library controller dismisses itself rather than providing a delegate method notifying you to dismiss it. First, open a bug report with Apple and post the bug report number so people can duplicate it.
In absence of better options, I would suggest replacing the controller's navigation item's bar button item with your own, where that button would notify you of the user's tap and you'd dismiss the controller properly. This is a partial solution, as the reference library controller is a complex case, where it maintains a navigation stack internally. You may have to dig in the view controller parent/child hierarchy to find all cases.
Consider changing your design in the meantime, presenting the view modally instead of a popover on phone/pod devices.
