So I've setup the AppDelegate to load a root view vc which has a navigation controller:
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
SecondViewController *vc = [[SecondViewController alloc] init];
self.window.rootViewController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
In my SecondViewController I have a method that then calls a push to present the third view controller:
ThirdViewController *thirdVC = [[ThirdViewController alloc]init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController: thirdVC animated:YES];
Although this doesn't work. On closer inspection the self.navigationController property on the SecondViewController is nil. Is there something I've missed on the AppDelegate to make this non-nil?
Try this as i was facing same issue but i resolved it by setting same class name and Storyboard ID name under The Custom Class header of your project.
registerViewController *regVC = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"registerViewController"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:regVC animated:YES];
Try this:
SecondViewController *vc = [[SecondViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navigationController=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc];
self.window.rootViewController = navigationController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
THere is no need of making the root view controller nil in the app delegate.

I am a newbie in iOS Development trying to learn how to create and set views programmatically.
i am trying to do swift statement in Obj-C
window?.rootViewController = UINavigationController(rootViewController : ViewController())
Project: Single View Application . Trying to link default Created ViewController.h
As per Krunals Answer i updated code but Navigation Controller is not shown in simulator
Cmd+Click on controller does not navigate to ViewController File
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "ViewController.h"
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
UIScreen *screen=[[UIScreen alloc]init];
UIWindow *window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
self.window.makeKeyAndVisible;
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] init];
window.rootViewController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:controller] ;
Initialise your view controller ViewController before you add (use as root controller of navigation) into navigation controller stack.
Here is sample code to initialise simple view controller
UIViewController *controller = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
Here is sample code to initialise using storyboard
ViewController *controller = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main" bundle:nil] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"<ViewController - string identifier of your view controller>"];
Here is sample code to initialise using NIB/Bundle
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"<ViewController - string NIB name>>" bundle:nil];
According to your code and following comment try this code only (remove other codes from your app delegate launch):
// make sure your NIB name is 'ViewController'
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ViewController" bundle:nil];
if (controller != nil) {
self.window.rootViewController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: controller];
self.window.makeKeyAndVisible;
} else {
//print - your view controller is nil
}
Thanks to Krunal for detailed answer .
Thanks to dan for support
i found issue instead of self.window.rootViewController , i typed window.rootViewController.
setting self.window.rootViewController solved issue.
i dont know difference between self.window.rootViewController and window.rootViewController and reason for issue.
If some one knows answer please provide answer on comment
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "ViewController.h"
#interface AppDelegate ()
#end
#implementation AppDelegate
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
UIScreen *screen=[[UIScreen alloc]init];
UIWindow *window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
self.window.makeKeyAndVisible;
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] init];
self.window.rootViewController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:controller] ;
Delele the file Main.storyboard and let the Main interface option empty before you do it.
And add this code:
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds];
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
ViewController *vc = [[ViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc];
self.window.rootViewController = nav;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
UPDATE: If you want to use storyboard with UINavigationController, try this:
Adding UIViewController and adding with UINavigationController
UIStoryboard *storyboard = self.window.rootViewController.storyboard;
UIViewController *rootViewController= [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:kIdentifier];
[self setRootViewController:rootViewController];
#pragma mark - Set RootView Controller
-(void)setRootViewController:(UIViewController *)rootViewController {
self.window.rootViewController = rootViewController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
UIStoryboard *storyboard = self.window.rootViewController.storyboard;
UIViewController *rootViewController= [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:kIdentifier];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:rootViewController];
[self setRootViewController:navController];
-(void)setRootViewController:(UINavigationController *)rootViewController {
self.window.rootViewController = rootViewController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
Inside this i am creating the custom navigation controller and i have view as storyboard but that view is not loading
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
//create the navigation controller and add the controllers view to the window
_navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] init];
[self.window addSubview:[self.navigationController view]];
//check if the first viewcontroller eixsts, otherwise create it
if(self.firstViewController == nil)
{
ViewController *firstView = (ViewController *)[mainStoryBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"mainView123"];
// ViewController *firstView = [[ViewController alloc] init];
self.firstViewController = firstView;
}
//push the first viewcontroller into the navigation view controller stack
[self.navigationController pushViewController:self.firstViewController animated:YES];
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
firs you should set your navigation as rootviewcontroller then try something like this.
UIStoryboard *storyboard =[UIStoryboardstoryboardWithName:#"MainStoryboard_iPhone" bundle:nil];
MyNewViewController *myVC = (MyNewViewController *)[storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"myViewCont"];
self.firstViewController = myVc;
I'm having an LoginViewController which is the RootViewController. This ViewController should not have the TabBar included. The Rest of the ViewController should contain the UITabBar, But it is not showing. If i make the tabBar the rootController it will show the tabBar in the viewcontrollers. This would also make the firsttab the rootviewcontroller which it should not.
My question is then how can i make the loginview the rootViewController without an tabBar and still show the tabBar in the other viewcontrollers?
My code:
tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
MenuViewController *firstTab = [[MenuViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"MenuViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:firstTab];
FixtureViewController *secondTab = [[FixtureViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"FixtureViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController2 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:secondTab];
WorldCupViewController *thirdTab = [[WorldCupViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"WorldCupViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController3 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:thirdTab];
LoginViewController *loginView = [[LoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LoginViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController4 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:loginView];
self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = #[navController, navController2, navController3];
navController.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"message-7"];
navController2.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"football-32"];
navController3.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"trophy-32"];
[[UITabBar appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:110/255.0f green:89/255.0f blue:196/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];
[self.window setRootViewController:navController4];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
What you need to do is transition the application from the LoginViewController to the Tabbar. What I would suggest doing is replacing the LoginViewController with the TabBar as the rootViewController.
Here is some sample code, perform this action in your AppDelegate
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
LoginViewController *loginView = [[LoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LoginViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController4 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:loginView];
[self.window setRootViewController:navController4];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
-(void)transitionToTabBar
{
// Set the TabBar how you are in your sample code, this is just an example.
[self.window setRootViewController:[[UITabBarController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SomeNib" bundle:Nil]];
[UIView transitionWithView:self.window duration:0.5f options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionCurlDown animations:^{
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
} completion:nil];
}
You should use main View controller (for MenuViewController) and by using segue you can present another view controller which has TabBar in it.
I'm trying to add a UINavigationController to my existing view controller by adding this in ViewDidLoad:
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
navController = [[UINavigationController alloc]init];
[self.view addSubview:navController.view];
}
But by doing it this way, it completely blocks my view. It puts a UINavigationBar on the top but the rest of the view doesn't respond to input.
This is how I am presenting the view. The SecondViewController is the one I want to have a NavController:
UITabBarController *tabController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
FirstViewController *viewController1 = [[FirstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"CardsViewController" bundle:nil];
UITabBarItem *tab1 = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"First"
image:[UIImage imageNamed:#"img1.png"] tag:1];
[viewController1 setTabBarItem:tab1];
SecondViewController *viewController2 = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ShoppingViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *SecondViewNavCont = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:viewController2];
UITabBarItem *tab2 = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Second"
image:[UIImage imageNamed:#"img2.png"] tag:2];
[SecondViewNavCont setTabBarItem:tab2];
UIViewController *viewController3 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UITabBarItem *tab3 = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Third"
image:[UIImage imageNamed:#"img3.png"] tag:3];
[viewController3 setTabBarItem:tab3];
tabController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:viewController1,
viewController2,
viewController3,
nil];
[self.view addSubview:tabController.view];
You cannot add it to the current view controller
What you need to do is instead of presenting the ViewController is to add this viewcontroller to the navigationview controller and present that
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:YourPresentedViewController];
//then present the navController
[self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
Now when you present it do the following
NSArray arrayWithObjects:viewController1,
SecondViewNavCont,
viewController3,
nil];
You can try this code for load uiviewcontroller to uinavigationcontroller:
yourviewController *viewcontroller=[[yourviewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"yourviewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewcontroller];
[self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
(or) you want to load uinavigationcontroller in application startup try below code in your application delegate class:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewcontroller.view];
[self.window addSubview:navController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
Welcome!
You need to set the RootViewController for the navController object. Then further you can push UIViewcontroller objects using pushViewController method.
You need to add a view for that Navigation Controller. The added Navigation Controller has no view so it was overlaying on the UIViewController
You need to add
[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ViewControllerName" bundle:nil];
I would like to show a modal dialog from a xib. The code that shows my window is:
self.vcSettings = [[ViewControllerSettings alloc] initWithNibName:#"ViewControllerSettings" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[self presentModalViewController:self.vcSettings animated:YES];
When this runs though, I get a blank screen, and not what was inside of my ViewControllerSettings.xib. I imagine I'm showing the view incorrectly somehow. Any advice is appreciated.
EDIT:
I think this should be
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:self.vcSettings animated:YES];
but for some reason self.navigationController is nil.
EDIT:
Self is a UIViewController instantiated in my AppDelegate like so:
UIViewController* viewMain = [[ViewController_iPhone alloc] initWithNibName:#"ViewController_iPhone" bundle:nil];
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
self.window.rootViewController = viewMain;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
You need to create a UINavigationController, set it's root view to the XIB controller that you want to present (in your case vcSettings), then present the UINavigationController
self.vcSettings = [[ViewControllerSettings alloc] initWithNibName:#"ViewControllerSettings" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *controller = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vcSettings];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
