Can't resize height contentSizeForViewInPopover of UIViewController in side UINavigationController of UIPopover - ios

Question

I use UINavigationController inside UIPopoverController
-(void)showEditMenuFrom:(UIButton *)button{
if (self.popover) {
[self.popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
self.popover = nil;
}
else {
EditMenuViewController *editMenuViewController = [[EditMenuViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"EditMenuViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *actionsNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:editMenuViewController];
actionsNavigationController.delegate = self;
// switch for iPhone and iPad.
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
self.popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:actionsNavigationController];
self.popover.delegate = self;
// CGRect presentFrame = CGRectMake(button.frame.origin.x-43, button.frame.origin.y-10, button.frame.size.width, button.frame.size.height);
[self.popover presentPopoverFromRect:button.frame inView:button permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
} else {
[self presentViewController:actionsNavigationController animated:YES completion:^{
NSLog(#"Activity complete");
}];
}
}
}
And I try to resize view inside UIPopover when navigate and these are result:
Root view:
2.Push to other VC
3.Pop back:
You can see the height of root VC can't change back to origin size.
I try to set contentSizeForViewInPopover in viewDidAppear, viewDidLoad and in UINavigationControllerDelegate but no methods work
-(void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated
{
NSLog(#"Show VIEW %#",viewController);
if ([viewController isKindOfClass:[EditMenuViewController class]]) {
viewController.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(160.0, 160.0);
} else {
viewController.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(320.0, 320.0);
}
}
How to solve this problem? Thanks!

Answer 1

I end up my question for someone meet this solution:
First, you need to declare a #property inside the VC which pop back on stack
#property (nonatomic, strong) UIPopoverController *popover;
Then assign it to UIPopoverController in main code
self.popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:actionsNavigationController];
self.popover.delegate = self;
editMenuViewController.popover = self.popover;
And Finally, setting the size in viewWillAppear of VC you want to resize
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[self.popover setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(160,160)];
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(160,160);
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
}

Try with bellow example miht be usefull:-
-(void)showEditMenuFrom:(UIButton *)button{
if (self.popover) {
[self.popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
self.popover = nil;
}
else {
EditMenuViewController *editMenuViewController = [[EditMenuViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"EditMenuViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *actionsNavigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:editMenuViewController];
actionsNavigationController.delegate = self;
// switch for iPhone and iPad.
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
self.popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:actionsNavigationController];
self.popover.delegate = self;
popover.popoverContentSize =CGSizeMake(250,200); //Addint this line for setContentsize
[self.popover presentPopoverFromRect:button.frame inView:button permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
} else {
[self presentViewController:actionsNavigationController animated:YES completion:^{
NSLog(#"Activity complete");
}];
}
}
}
In EditMenuViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
//self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = NO; //this work if superclass is UITableviewcontroller
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(200,100);
}
-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated
{
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(250,200);
[super viewWillDisappear:YES];
}
