Basically i cant get to display all tabBar Items when i run my app, just the first view controller is displayed:
I literally have to click on a tab to display its Item:
This my code in Appdelegate.m:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
// Initialize window
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:UIScreen.mainScreen.bounds];
// Set background colors for both NavBar and TabBar
[[UINavigationBar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:0.157 green:0.718 blue:0.553 alpha:1]];
[[UITabBar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:0.141 green:0.216 blue:0.263 alpha:1]];
// Initialize your five tab controllers. with each tab has its own navigation controller
HomePageView *homePageView = [[HomePageView alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav1 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:homePageView];
ProfileViewController *profileViewController=[[ProfileViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav2 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:profileViewController];
FeedViewController *feedViewController=[[FeedViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav3 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:feedViewController];
ListeningSessionViewController *listeningSessionViewController= [[ListeningSessionViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav4 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:listeningSessionViewController];
RecievedViewController *recievedViewController =[[RecievedViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav5 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:recievedViewController];
// initialize tabbarcontroller,set your viewcontrollers and change its color.
self.tabC = [[UITabBarController alloc]init];
NSArray* controllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: nav1,nav2,nav3,nav4,nav5, nil];
[self.tabC setViewControllers: controllers animated:NO];
[_window addSubview:self.tabC.view];
// Show window
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
I'm guessing that you're setting the titles in the viewDidLoad or viewDidAppear methods of the controllers. That won't work, because, while all the controllers are instantiated in the app delegate, only the controller at index 0 has its view loaded, and thus viewDidLoad will not be run for the other controllers. Instead, you should set the titles on the navigation controllers in the app delegate,
ProfileViewController *profileViewController=[[ProfileViewController alloc]init];
UINavigationController *nav2 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:profileViewController];
nav2.tabBarItem.title = #"Profile";

I am unable to get the navigation bar to show the title that I specify. I have tried to change the title in the AppDelegate.m, as well as in the viewDidLoad of my first tab view. I suspect the title is being hidden, but I am unable fix it. Please provide any insight you may have.

The relationship of your view controllers isn't right.
The root view controller of your app should be the TabBarController.
Each of the items should have it's own Navigation Controller.
The title of each ViewController can be set in viewDidLoad() with self.title = "....
I've been able to set titles in the delegate as follows:
1.) Create view controllers
2.) Set those titles
3.) Then create UINavigationControllers and assign view controllers there
self.firstViewController = [[FirstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
self.secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
self.thirdViewController = [[ThirdViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
self.fourthViewController = [[FourthViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[self.firstViewController setTitle:#"First"];
[self.secondViewController setTitle:#"Second"];
[self.thirdViewController setTitle:#"Third"];
[self.fourthViewController setTitle:#"Fourth"];
UINavigationController *controller1 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.firstViewController];
UINavigationController *controller2 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.secondViewController];
UINavigationController *controller3 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.thirdViewController];
UINavigationController *controller4 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.fourthViewController];
NSArray *viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:controller1, controller2, controller3, controller4, nil];
I want to Push my viewController on PresentViewController
When i click on button initially i am loading PresentViewController, here is my code.
- (IBAction)JoinClicked:(id)sender{
JoinWithViewController *detail_view_controller = [[JoinWithViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"JoinWithViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.view.window.rootViewController presentViewController:detail_view_controller
animated:YES
completion:NULL];
}
this works fine, but when i click on button which is there on PresentViewController on click i want to Push my view, but in does not pushes.
Please help, Thanks in advance.
JoinWithViewController *detail_view_controller = [[JoinWithViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"JoinWithViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detail_view_controller animated:YES];
Try like this to push viewController. If you use TabBar do like this in AppDelegate. If you create TabBar Drag and drop means leave that. Create TabBar Programatically like below.
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
UITabBarController *tabController = [[UITabBarController alloc]init];
self.viewController = [[CalculatorViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"CalculatorViewController" bundle:nil];
UITabBarItem *tab_item1 = [[UITabBarItem alloc]init];
//tab_item1.title = #"Calculator";
tab_item1.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Calculator.png"];
[self.viewController setTabBarItem:tab_item1];
UINavigationController *nav1 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:self.viewController];
ShowPhoneViewController *phone = [[ShowPhoneViewController alloc]init];
UITabBarItem *tab_item2 = [[UITabBarItem alloc]init];
tab_item2.title = #"Latest Mobiles";
tab_item2.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Mobile.png"];
[phone setTabBarItem:tab_item2];
UINavigationController *nav2 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:phone];
CurrencyConvertorViewController *currency = [[CurrencyConvertorViewController alloc]init];
UITabBarItem *tab_item3 = [[UITabBarItem alloc]init];
tab_item3.title = #"Units Convertor";
tab_item3.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Dollar.png"];
[currency setTabBarItem:tab_item3];
UINavigationController *nav3 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:currency];
SettingsPageViewController *setting = [[SettingsPageViewController alloc]init];
UITabBarItem *tab_item4 = [[UITabBarItem alloc]init];
tab_item4.title = #"Settings";
tab_item4.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Settings.png"];
[setting setTabBarItem:tab_item4];
UINavigationController *nav4 = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:setting];
tabController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:nav1, nav2, nav3, nav4, nil];
self.window.rootViewController = tabController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
I hope you got now
pushviewcontroller is the feature of UINavigationController where you can push one viewcontroller on another vierw controller. Here you are using a single viewcontroller as a rootviewcontroller so either you must change your rootviewcontroller to UINavigationcontroller or you can use "addSubview method" to add new viewController on the current viewcontroller.
but the better option is to add uinavigationcontroller as a rootviewcontroller.
AppDelegate.m
-(BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
FirstViewController *first = [[FirstViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"FirstViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController =[[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:first];
[self.window setRootViewController:navController];
}
Now when as you want to switch from FirstViewController to SecondViewController on button clicked than you have to use pushviewcontroller
FirstViewController.h
-(void) nextBtnPressed {
SecondViewController *second = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:second animated:TRUE];
}
I am making an application but I'm still a beginner and I'm trying to get used to the RootViewController and how it should be set.
At the beginning my application launches, I want there to be a View which is not in my tabBarController (which is set to be my rootViewController).
What I am trying to ask is, Can I have another view which is outside my UITabBarController launch first without it being in the tabBarController's items list?

I know you already selected an answer but all that's doing is pushing a UITabBar view on top of an existing view, not creating a new UITabBarController view. Based on our brief conversation (latest XCode, no StoryBoards, using XIBs) you're going to want to create a xib as a UITabBarController then push it into view...
View *view = [[View alloc] initWithNibName:#"myUITabBarXIB" bundle:nil];
view.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[self presentModalViewController: view animated:YES];
This will present your XIB file but not on top of the existing view controller when the desired action takes place.
yes! ofcourse you do.
[self.view addsubview:yourTabbar.view];
Hope this will help you.
Is there a way to reorder tabs of a TabBar programmatically on xCode?
Thank you a lot, Matteo!
Try this:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
MyViewController* vc1 = [[MyViewController alloc] init];
MyOtherViewController* vc2 = [[MyOtherViewController alloc] init];
NSArray* controllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, vc2, nil];
tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;
// Add the tab bar controller's current view as a subview of the window
[window addSubview:tabBarController.view];
}
I create my TabBarController programatically, because I want the same Controller in every tab displaying different content. The content is fetched by an ID.
I use the storyboard id the same way as one would use initWithNibName:.
I do this in the AppDelegate:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"MainStoryboard_iPhone" bundle:nil];
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
MyViewController *svc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"MyView"];
[svc setID: i];
[tabBarController addChildViewController:svc];
}
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
[self.window setRootViewController: tabBarController];
return YES;
}
But the TabBar shows only 5 of the 7 Tabs. This is fine, because only 5 tabs can be visible the same time. Unfortunately the ... More button is not visible. So the last 2 tabs are not accessible.
Does anyone have an idea how to force the More button to show up, or why it does not show up?
Regards!
It's not showing up because you are adding viewcontrollers to the tab bar controller using addChildViewController method which is a UIViewController method and not a tab bar controller method. So i think what's happening is the tab bar controller doesn't really know that it has more than 5 view controllers.
If you want the more view controller to show up, set the viewControllers array of the tab bar controller directly. Modify your code to something like below:
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
NSMutableArray *vcArray = [NSMutableArray array];
for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
ViewController *svc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"MyView"];
[svc setID: i];
[vcArray addObject:svc];
}
[tabBarController setViewControllers:vcArray]; //This is the important part.
[self.window setRootViewController: tabBarController];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
Following is simple example for How can you use UITabBarController
Firsts Create all object of UIViewController and UINavigationController in AppDelegate.h file and use following method of AppDelegate.m
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window=[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds ]];
self.viewCon=[[ViewController alloc] init];
self.navCon=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.viewCon];
self.navCon.navigationBar.tintColor=[UIColor blackColor];
self.viewCon.title=#"First View";
self.fView=[[FirstViewController alloc] init];
self.FnavCon=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.fView];
self.FnavCon.navigationBar.tintColor=[UIColor blackColor];
self.fView.title=#"Secound View";
self.sView=[[SecoundViewController alloc] init];
self.SnavCon=[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self.sView];
self.SnavCon.navigationBar.tintColor=[UIColor blackColor];
self.sView.title=#"Third View";
.
.
// create UIViewController and UINavigationController As you need
.
.
.
UIImage *img1=[UIImage imageNamed:#"Australia.gif"];
self.tbItem1=[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"First Page" image:img1 tag:1];
self.viewCon.tabBarItem=self.tbItem1;
UIImage *img2=[UIImage imageNamed:#"Cameroon.gif"];
self.tbItem2=[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Secound Page" image:img2 tag:2];
self.fView.tabBarItem=self.tbItem2;
UIImage *img3=[UIImage imageNamed:#"Canada.png"];
self.tbItem3=[[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Third Page" image:img3 tag:3];
self.sView.tabBarItem=self.tbItem3;
NSMutableArray *viewArr=[[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[viewArr addObject:self.navCon];
[viewArr addObject:self.FnavCon];
[viewArr addObject:self.SnavCon];
self.tbCon=[[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tbCon.viewControllers=viewArr;
[self.window addSubview:tbCon.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
