In a viewController I programmatically create a UIView that has the same height of the screen. The problem is that navigation bar is still visible and clickable, but I want it to go under the new view. How can I do that?
EDIT: this is a screenshot of what I have now
Not sure if this is what you actually want, since hiding it is a quite acceptable thing to do. However you can hide the rightButtonItem and disable the left one:
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = nil;
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem.enabled = NO;
And to get back your right bar button, if you need it again somewhere:
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.*whatever*ButtonItem;
See if that works. I'm away from my Mac at the moment, so can't check it myself.
Right now you have taken navigation controller as a root view
controller (Maybe),In this case navigation controller overlaps the
UIVewController's view that's why it comes on the view so you need to
hide the Navigation controller.
What about making it hidden?
self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = YES;

I'm hiding the navigationbar on a certain view, and when the user presses a button on the view, i'm pushing it to the next view.
In the next view, I am not longer hiding the nav bar and as expected it becomes visible. When hitting back however, the navbar on the first view also becomes (somehow) visible.
I'm hiding the top navbar like this:
self.navigationController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
And I'm making it visible like this:
self.navigationController.navigationBar.hidden = NO;
I wonder what could be wrong with this, as it's quite basic but somehow has a glitch.
In Parent VC's viewWillAppear method hide the navigation bar.
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
self.navigationController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
}
I have an app that uses bottom tabs aswell as a side menu, to have the button that initiates the side menu i use the typical three line menu button, to put that there I have a Navigation Bar. With the bar in place there is no way I can get the bar to be on top of the screen. I built it with interface builder, and heres a screenshot. The question is how do i have the navigation bar alone without the other grey bar above it?
The issue you're encountering is due to the fact that you're manually creating a navigation bar for your view controller, instead of using the bar that you get for free by embedding the view controller in a tab bar controller, hence the reason you see two bars. The other answer suggesting hiding the auto-generated navigation bar is not the correct solution. Instead, you should place your menu button and view title in the auto-generated bar instead of manually creating your own (you almost never want to do that, in-fact).
So what you should do instead is set the title property of your view controller to be "News", and the leftBarButtonItem property of the view controller to be your hamburger menu button (an instance of UIBarButtonItem initialized with an image for the icon).
For example (inside your view controller's viewDidLoad method or wherever appropriate):
self.title = #"News";
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"menuIcon"] style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(showSideMenu)];
If you want to remove the topmost navigation bar you need use self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = YES; for view controllers that used for tabs in UITabBarController:
// StoriesViewController.m
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = YES;
}
I have a UINavigationBar based app. I've created a custom UIView with some titles and added it as a subview to the navigation bar:
[self.navigationController.navigationBar addSubview:_navbarView];
Everything works ok until I hit the back button in the navigation bar and the UIViewController transition occurs.
The problem is that my custom view doesn't fade away like the others elements in the UINavigationBar, it just stays the same and disappears when the transition is complete.
I want it to fade away during the transition like the native elements of the UINavigationBar, is there any way to achieve this?
If you add a subview to the navigation bar, then it will just stay there; the navigation controller doesn't know to do anything special with it. You say your custom view has "some titles" - have you tried doing this instead?
self.navigationItem.titleView = _navbarView;
Then the navigation controller knows that the view should be used in place of your controller's title, and it should animate in and out.
If that doesn't work, you'll need to look at becoming the navigation controller's delegate. Since iOS7, this can get quite complex.
If you need custom navigation bar it could be a good idea to create UINavigationController with custom UINavigationBar
- (instancetype)initWithNavigationBarClass:(Class)navigationBarClass toolbarClass:(Class)toolbarClass
in your navigation bar class you can implement
- (UINavigationItem *)popNavigationItemAnimated:(BOOL)animated
{
if (animated) {
//your_problem_view animation here
}
[super popNavigationItemAnimated];
}
my app is structured as follow: UITabBarController > UINavigationController > ViewControllerOne > ViewControllerTwo.
the UINavigationBar has at the bottom the tab bar, now when the user navigates into the second view controller, i want to be able to hide the tab bar and replace is with a tool bar. i tried this code:
[self.navigationController.tabBarController.tabBar setHidden:YES];
[self.navigationController.toolbar setHidden:NO];
when i run the app the tab bar is hidden but the toolbar doesn't appear. plus, since the last VC is a table view controller, when i scroll through the cells there is a white gap between the table and the bottom of the view. how can i fix that?
That won't work because when you hide the tab bar like that the subviews won't be adjusted properly (that's why you get the white space). You'll have to use
self.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
In your init method or awakeFromNib... and then
[self.navigationController setToolbarHidden:NO animated:YES];
In the viewDidLoad for example.
That way the tab bar controller's view is going to layout correctly it's subviews when you hide the tab bar. Just remember to call self.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = NO; in your first view controller otherwise the tab bar is still going to be hidden when the second view controller is popped from the navigation stack.
Try to assigning toolbar with appropriate frame and adding it to self.tabBarController.view
I would like to hide back button of navigation bar which is a part of Story board, I have tried different following code snippets in detail view button nothing seems to work for me.
self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = YES;
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem=nil;
PS: I am also having tab bar along with navigation bar in my story board
Add this line in the viewDidLoad of your ViewController where you would like to hide the back bar button:
[self.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES];
Tested successfully in a storyboard project.
Try this
self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton= YES;
If you have added your own button to the navigationController and want to hide that as well (such as while editing text), its a two line process like this:
myViewController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil;
myViewController.navigationItem.hidesBackButton=YES;
You can hide the entire navigationbar as follows:
self.navigationController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
then in your storyboard you can add a navigation bar to your view controller.
The result is what you want but maybe users will be confused as to why they can't go back...
Its too late answer but may help others.
To hide back button you can do this :
self.navigationController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem.hidden = YES;
You can also try with :
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem.hidden = YES;
This actually hides left BarButton and back button is on left side, too, unless you change programmatically.
