Show Multiple views using custom tabs within UiViewController - ios

I'm wondering how I would be able to design my own custom tabs, that when clicked could show mutiple view on the screen
http://tinypic.com/r/2cxtjk7/5
I'm only currently able to find the bottom tabbed bar approach. Thanks for your help im quite new still so if you could explain in detail that would be great :)

Show Multiple views using custom tabs
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil
bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
AccountViewController *accountViewController = [[AccountViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"AccountViewController" bundle:nil];
MoreViewController *moreViewController = [[MoreViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"MoreViewController" bundle:nil];
BarTabViewController *barTabViewController = [[BarTabViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"BarTabViewController" bundle:nil];
LocationsViewController *locationsViewController = [[LocationsViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"LocationsViewController" bundle:nil];
self.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:locationsViewController, accountViewController,
barTabViewController, moreViewController, nil];
[self.view addSubview:locationsViewController.view];
self.selectedController = locationsViewController;
self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarController.selectedIndex = 0;
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:locationsViewController, accountViewController,
barTabViewController, moreViewController, nil];
self.tabBarController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:delegate.tabBarController animated:YES];
return self;
}
Like I said, this will display the selected controller properly, however when the app launches and I try to switch views with the tab bar, the subview just become grey... The following is the code to switch items:
- (void)tabBar:(UITabBar *)tabBar didSelectItem:(UITabBarItem *)item
{
if (item == locationsTabBarItem) {
UIViewController *locationsController = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:0];
[self.selectedController.view removeFromSuperview];
[self.view addSubview:locationsController.view];
self.selectedController = locationsController;
}
else if (item == accountsTabBarItem) {
UIViewController *accountsController = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:1];
[self.selectedController.view removeFromSuperview];
[self.view addSubview:accountsController.view];
self.selectedController = accountsController;
}
else if (item == barTabTabBarItem) {
UIViewController *barTabController = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:2];
[self.selectedController.view removeFromSuperview];
[self.view addSubview:barTabController.view];
self.selectedController = barTabController;
}
else {
UIViewController *moreController = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:3];
[self.selectedController.view removeFromSuperview];
[self.view addSubview:moreController.view];
self.selectedController = moreController;
}
}

I added thing in view did load in the end here:
PatientDetailsViewController *patientDetailsView =
[[PatientDetailsViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"PatientDetailsViewController" bundle:nil];
[self addChildViewController:patientDetailsView];
[self.patientDetailsView addSubview:patientDetailsView.view];
[self.patientDetailsView setClipsToBounds:YES];
and then animated its opening with a button by adjusted the view frame size with an animation.

IOS. UITabBarController with navigationController

I had a viewController which contains video view and UITabBarController. UITabBarController contains 3 viewControllers with UINavigationController. The problem is that the frame of first UINavigationController is good (0,20,width,height), but the other two navigationController has wrong frame (0,0,width,height). Status bar is showing, so I don't know what's wrong with them.
Here i create TabBarController :
#interface EEMenuTBC ()
#end
#implementation EEMenuTBC
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
EEFavoritesVC *favotiteVC = [[EEFavoritesVC alloc] initWithNibAsClassName];
UINavigationController *favotiteNC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:favotiteVC];
[favotiteVC.tabBarItem setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"favoritesMenuDisabled"]];
[favotiteVC.tabBarItem setTitle:#"Favourites"];
EESearchTVC *searchVC = [[EESearchTVC alloc] initWithNibAsClassName];
UINavigationController *searchNC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:searchVC];
[searchVC.tabBarItem setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"searchMenuDisabled"]];
[searchVC.tabBarItem setTitle:#"Search"];
EESettingsTVC *settingsVC = [[EESettingsTVC alloc] initWithNibAsClassName];
UINavigationController *settingsNC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:settingsVC];
[settingsVC.tabBarItem setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"settingsMenuDisabled"]];
[settingsVC.tabBarItem setTitle:#"Settings"];
self.viewControllers = #[favotiteNC, searchNC, settingsNC];
self.tabBar.items[0].selectedImage = [UIImage imageNamed: #"favoritesMenuEnabled"];
self.tabBar.items[1].selectedImage = [UIImage imageNamed: #"searchMenuEnabled"];
self.tabBar.items[2].selectedImage = [UIImage imageNamed: #"settingsMenuEnabled"];
for(UIView *temp in self.tabBar.subviews) {
[temp setExclusiveTouch:YES];
}
}
-(BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden {
return NO;
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
}
- (void)goToRootVC {
if (_delegateMenuTBC && [_delegateMenuTBC respondsToSelector:#selector(EEMenuTBCDelegateGoToRootVC)]) {
[_delegateMenuTBC EEMenuTBCDelegateGoToRootVC];
}
}
#end
In other ViewController i doing
_menuTBC = [[EEMenuTBC alloc] initWithNibName:#"EEMenuTBC" bundle:nil];
_menuTBC.view.frame = self.view.frame;
And in favotiteVC navigation look's good, and all other's 2 navigations has no spacing from status bar
P.S
First of all, I added my UITabBarController as a child to UIViewController. The first UINavigationController from UITabBarController has right frame (0,20,width,height) , but others 2 UINavigationsControllers, has wrong frame (0,0,width, height). I think they don't have status bar, and I checked that method -prefersStatusBarHidden isn't call from all UIViewControllers which contains in UITabBarController

UINavigationBar with UISegmentedControl partially covers childViews

I have read many other threads on this and the Apple docs, but haven't found a solution yet for my particular problem.
My app uses a UITabBarController as the rootViewController, and in one of the tabs I have a UISegmentedControl in the navigationBar to switch between three child UITableViewControllers.
(In the real app two of the childVCs are a custom UIViewController, I'm just using three UITableViewControllers for the sample app).
The segmentedControl setup and the switching all works fine. The thing that goes wrong is that only the first UITableViewController is shown correctly. For the second and third one, part of the first cell is hidden under the navigationBar. When I click through all three, the first one is still ok.
I have made a little sample app to show what's going on, using very bright colors for demonstration purposes: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7pfutvn5jba6rva/SegmentedControlVC.zip?dl=0
Here is also some code (I'm not using storyboards):
// AppDelegate.m
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
FirstViewController *fvc = [[FirstViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *firstNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: fvc];
SecondViewController *svc = [[SecondViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *secondNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: svc];
// Initialize tab bar controller, add tabs controllers
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
tabBarController.viewControllers = #[firstNavigationController, secondNavigationController];
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
self.window.rootViewController = tabBarController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
// FirstViewController.m
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.title = #"One";
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
UITableViewController *vc1 = [[UITableViewController alloc] init];
UITableViewController *vc2 = [[UITableViewController alloc] init];
UITableViewController *vc3 = [[UITableViewController alloc] init];
vc1.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
vc2.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
vc3.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
self.viewControllers = #[vc1, vc2, vc3];
self.segmentTitles = #[#"Red", #"Blue", #"Green"];
self.segmentedControl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems: self.segmentTitles];
[self.segmentedControl addTarget: self
action: #selector(segmentClicked:)
forControlEvents: UIControlEventValueChanged];
self.navigationItem.titleView = self.segmentedControl;
self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = 0;
// set the first child vc:
UIViewController *vc = self.viewControllers[0];
[self addChildViewController: vc];
vc.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
[self.view addSubview: vc.view];
self.currentVC = vc;
}
- (void)segmentClicked:(id)sender
{
if (sender == self.segmentedControl)
{
NSUInteger index = self.segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex;
[self loadViewController: self.viewControllers[index]];
}
}
- (void)loadViewController:(UIViewController *)vc
{
[self addChildViewController: vc];
[self transitionFromViewController: self.currentVC
toViewController: vc
duration: 1.0
options: UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionFlipFromBottom
animations: ^{
[self.currentVC.view removeFromSuperview];
vc.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
[self.view addSubview: vc.view];
} completion: ^(BOOL finished) {
[vc didMoveToParentViewController: self];
[self.currentVC removeFromParentViewController];
self.currentVC = vc;
}
];
}
So obviously my question is, why does this happen, and what can I do to fix it?
Edit: adding screenshots.
EDIT: Based on the answer below I changed the code in the animation block to:
[self.currentVC.view removeFromSuperview];
if ([vc.view isKindOfClass: [UIScrollView class]])
{
UIEdgeInsets edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(self.topLayoutGuide.length, 0, self.bottomLayoutGuide.length, 0);
[UIView performWithoutAnimation: ^{
vc.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
((UIScrollView *)vc.view).contentInset = edgeInsets;
((UIScrollView *)vc.view).scrollIndicatorInsets = edgeInsets;
}];
}
else
{
vc.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
}
[self.view addSubview: vc.view];
Now it works. I'm going to try this with a custom UIViewController as well.
The issue is that you do not set the correct content inset to each table view. The system attempts to do it for you, but I guess your setup is too complex for it, and it only does it for the first tableview that is loaded in viewDidLoad. In your loadViewController: method, when replacing the currently displayed view, make sure to set both the contentInset and scrollIndicatorInsets to the values of the previous view. I think the system will manage to set the correct insets later, in case you rotate to landscape. Try it. If it doesn't, you will need to do it on your own in viewDidLayoutSubviews.

Add UIScrollView with Paging to Existing UIViewController

I'm wanting to add a UIScrollView with paging to go through different views from my existing view controller which is the root view of my app. I also have tab bar and navigation bar controllers along with it. Can I add a scroll view to this view controller to accomplish what I'm wanting, and if so, can someone point me in the right direction on how to go about it?
Here is my view controller.

This works really well for me:
Declare a property for your UIScrollView, and set your ViewController as a UIScrollViewDelegate
#interface ViewController : UIViewController<UIScrollViewDelegate>
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIScrollView *theScrollView;
#end
**Note that I'm setting up my UIScrollView with code, but it can easily be done with a XIB.
In viewDidLoad: of your ViewController
self.theScrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 50, self.view.frame.size.width, 300)];
self.theScrollView.delegate = self;
self.theScrollView.pagingEnabled = YES;
self.theScrollView.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = NO;
self.theScrollView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = NO;
[self.view addSubview:self.theScrollView];
NSArray *viewArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects://your UIViews];
for(int i=0; i<viewArray.count; i++)
{
CGRect frame;
frame.origin.x = self.theScrollView.frame.size.width * i;
frame.origin.y = 0;
frame.size = self.theScrollView.frame.size;
UIView *subview = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
[subview addSubview:[viewArray objectAtIndex:i]];
[self.theScrollView addSubview:subview];
}
self.theScrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(self.theScrollView.frame.size.width * viewArray.count, self.theScrollView.frame.size.height);
Most paging scrollViews also have a UIPageControl associated with it. To do that, override this UIScrollViewDelegate method:
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender {
CGFloat pageWidth = self.theScrollView.frame.size.width;
int page = floor((self.theScrollView.contentOffset.x - pageWidth / 2) / pageWidth) + 1;
self.thePageControl.currentPage = page;
}
I would perhaps try using UIPageViewController, rather than a regular paging scrollview.
Apple's PhotoScroller sample code provides a very good example of how to use UIPageViewController.
I also have some code on github that modifies PhotoScroller to load the UIPageViewController inside a UIViewController subclass. (In Apple's sample code, the UIPageViewController is the root view controller.)
I have never used a UIPageViewController with different UIViewController subclasses in each page (the PhotoScroller sample code uses PhotoViewControllers in all pages), but I can't see why it couldn't be done with a few modifications to the code.
This link helps for you. Here page controller and scrollview both are used -

Greedy UITabBarController?

I'm making a custom UIViewController which holds to sub view controllers. They are put inside the main view controller this way:
- (void) setHeaderViewController:(UIViewController *)vc
{
[self setViewController:vc isHeader:YES];
_headerViewController = vc;
}
- (void) setDetailViewController:(UIViewController *)vc
{
[self setViewController:vc isHeader:NO];
_detailViewController = vc;
}
- (void) setViewController:(UIViewController*) viewController isHeader:(BOOL)isHeader
{
UIViewController* viewControllerRef = ((isHeader) ? _headerViewController : _detailViewController);
if(viewControllerRef == viewController)
return;
const CGSize selfSize = self.view.frame.size;
CGRect viewFrame;
if (isHeader)
{
viewFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, selfSize.width, 150);
}
else
{
viewFrame = CGRectMake(0, 150, selfSize.width, selfSize.height-150);
}
UIView* viewControllerView = viewController.view;
[viewControllerView setFrame:viewFrame];
[viewControllerView setAutoresizingMask:(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | ((isHeader) ? UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin : UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin))];
[self.view addSubview:viewControllerView];
}
If I put two UIViewControllers inside of each sub view controller slot, the sizes defined in the method is respected. However, when putting a UITabBarController, it gets greedy and occupies the whole space:
UIViewController *vc = [[WIFCustomerDetailHeaderViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"WIFCustomerDetailHeaderViewController" bundle:nil];
[self setHeaderViewController:vc];
UIViewController *vc1 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
vc1.title = #"Personal Data";
vc1.tabBarItem = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Personal Data" image:nil tag:0];
vc1.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
vc1.view.frame = CGRectMake(0,400,100,100);
UIViewController *vc2 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
vc2.title = #"Diagnosis";
vc2.tabBarItem = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Diagnosis" image:nil tag:0];
vc2.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
vc2.view.frame = CGRectMake(0,500,50,50);
NSArray *tabs = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:vc1, vc2, nil];
WIFCustomerDetailTabViewController *tvc = [[WIFCustomerDetailTabViewController alloc] init];
[tvc setViewControllers:tabs];
[self setDetailViewController:tvc];
Does anyone knows what can be happening here? I can't find the cause...
Images below..
Documentation for the UITabBarController class says, "you must install this view as the root of your window. Unlike other view controllers, a tab bar interface should never be installed as a child of another view controller".
It seems that you're attempting a design that's specifically not supported.

Orientation Problem while using insertSubview

I get an orientation problem while using the following to code to display a view on top of a split view.
[window addSubview:aSplitViewController.view];
[window insertSubview:aViewController.view aboveSubview:aSplitViewController.view];
the plain view has a couple of buttons and labels.
So the problem I am facing is that the first view opens in landscape mode but the labels and buttons on the view are in portrait mode.
UPDATE: Here is some code so if anyone wants to see more details...
In my App Delegate
- (void) makeSplitViewController {
NSMutableArray *controllers = [NSMutableArray arrayWithArray:tabBarController.viewControllers];
// First tabbbar item
// detail view
detailViewController = [[DetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"DetailView" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navDetailView = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:detailViewController] autorelease];
navDetailView.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
// root view
rootViewController = [[RootViewController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStylePlain];
rootViewController.detailViewController = detailViewController;
rootViewController.navigationItem.title = #"List";
UINavigationController *navRootView = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:rootViewController] autorelease];
navRootView.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
navRootView.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
splitViewController = [[UISplitViewController alloc] init];
splitViewController.tabBarItem.title = #"Face Sheet";
splitViewController.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"gear1.png"];
splitViewController.navigationItem.title = #"Face Sheet";
splitViewController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:navRootView, navDetailView, nil];
splitViewController.delegate = detailViewController;
splitViewController.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
[controllers addObject:splitViewController];
// Second tabbbar item
scoreViewController = [[ScoreCardViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"TableViewController" bundle:nil];
scoreViewController.tabBarItem.title = #"Score Card";
scoreViewController.tabBarItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"gear1.png"];
scoreViewController.navigationItem.title = #"Score Card";
[controllers addObject:scoreViewController];
tabBarController.viewControllers = controllers;
}
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
// Create tabbar
tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
//tabBarController.delegate = self;
// Set window
[window addSubview:splashController.view];
[window insertSubview:tabBarController.view belowSubview:splashController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
application.statusBarOrientation = UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight;
return YES;
}
and here is the code in my SplashScreenView
- (IBAction) proceedButtonClick:(id)sender
{
// Initialize loginpopview
PhysicianLoginViewController *loginViewController = [[PhysicianLoginViewController alloc] init];
popOverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:loginViewController];
popOverController.popoverContentSize = CGSizeMake(350, 200);
popOverController.delegate = self;
// Set a notification to dismiss it later
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(loginViewControllerDone:) name:#"loginViewControllerDone" object:popOverController.contentViewController];
// Present popover
if ([popOverController isPopoverVisible])
{
[popOverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
}
else
{
[popOverController presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(485, 600, 100, 100) inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown animated:YES];
}
}
// Dismiss popview controller and setup the tabbar
- (void)loginViewControllerDone:(NSNotification *)notification{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
// Button in content view controller was tapped, dismiss popover...
[self.popOverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
// remove subview
[self.view removeFromSuperview];
// set tabbar
i3EAppDelegate *appDelegate = (i3EAppDelegate *) [[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];
[appDelegate makeSplitViewController];
}
It would be great if someone could point out where I am going wrong. I have been stuck with this problem for quite a few days and I have tried everything that comes to my mind...
UIWindow has a subview that it uses for rotations and puts other views inside of that. You need to insert yourself into the root view (or something lower), not the window. Look at -[UIWindow rootViewController].
UIView *rootView = [[[self window] rootViewController] view];
[rootView addSubview:view];
This will work as long as you're using something with a root view controller. This will work as long as rootViewController isn't nil. If you're doing a raw "View Based" application, then it's usually best to pick another view and add your view as its sibling rather than digging through the undocumented hierarchy:
UIView *sibling = ... (some other view)
[[sibling superview] addSubview:view];
