I have an iPad app and I'm using the storyboard. I'm presenting a modal view, which I wrap in a UINavigationController. It's a modal "Settings" view with it's own navigation.
I have a delegate setup to dismiss the modal view itself with a Done button in the Settings view which works fine, but I need to be able to dismiss it even after it has pushed another view when the user taps a setting.
So, basically a "cancel" button on the right side of the Navigation bar in the pushed views.
Instead of having to go back to the first "Settings" view to hit the done button.
I've tried setting up a second delegate for the pushed view without success:
Just add a bar button item and put this line in its action method:
[self.presentingViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
The presenting view controller will be the controller that presented the modal, not the navigation controller.

I've got 3 view controllers. Two I have hooked up to a tab bar controller and one that I'm wanting to access when a user selects a cell on the second view controller in my tabbed views.
I'm wanting when the user hits "back" on the 3rd "detail" page for the user to be taken back to the 2nd view.
When I do this by just adding a button and segueing back to the 2nd VC, the tab bar is gone. I tried in my viewDidAppear to unhide the tab bar, but I guess going off of the tab bar controller messes up the navigation.
I tried creating a variable that was like "didHitBack" and on my "back" button on the 3rd view I'm creating a segue back to the Tab Bar Controller, and if "didHitBack" is true I do
_ self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex = 1
which takes me to the second page, but it's loading the first view in then going to the second page which looks bad.
I was thinking maybe there was a way to do "didHitBack" and setting the tab bar's initial view controller to the second one or something, but that all just seems very wrong.
Is there a "proper" way to do this?
To recap I have VC1 and VC2 that are hooked up to a Tab Bar Controller, I have a tableview on VC2 that on didSelectRow I'm going to VC3 which I do not want to be a part of the tabbed view controller, and when I hit back on VC3 I want to go back to VC2.
If you want to build a navigation stack, you should embed your view controller in a UINavigationController
So your tab bar would be hooked up to VC1 and NavVC. The root view controller of NavVC would be VC2.
You can then push a new view controller onto the stack using the navigation controller (or pop the view controller to go back) all within the confines of the tabBar.
Steps to reproduce -
Open Modal view controller on tap of button of Root View controller.
In Modal view controller - On button, create segue to show popover view controller.
Tap on button to see Popover view controller.
Now multiple taps on screen to dismiss the popover view controller, it directly redirects to Rootview controller.(dismissing the Modal view controller).
Another approach -
Create IBAction to show popover view controller.
Tap on button to see Popover view controller.
This time it just dismiss the pop view controller. (Not redirecting to RootView controller)
Why this weird behavior when your showing Popover view controller in two different ways?
I am working on already developed big project and now its not possible for me to go ahead with second approach.
Please help me to find out the better way to resolve this.
You will need to create a delegate method in your Modal view controller.
After your popover view controller dismissed, then call your Modal view controller delegate method to dismiss as well.
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
ModalViewControllerDelegate.dismissView;
}];
iPhone project/iOS 7.1/objective-C Due to circumstances, i have presented a navigation controller which contains a view controller which in turn contains a web view.All of the before said are added programmatically (i.e. no .h,.m or xib files).How do i dismiss the navigation controller?
P.S: I've created all these in a method.There is no property or instance available for the navigationcontroller.
you have to create on barButtonItem on navigation bar like "Back" or "Done" and on it's click event you should write :
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
I'm developing an iPad App using storyboards. In this app when the user click on "preferences" appear a modal View. One button of this view send the user to another View Controller (but this view has an action bar to go back to his root view controller), but when user taps the action bar back button nothing happen (it's called navigationController popViewControllerAnimated), the user continue in the same view.
Can anyone help me??
Thanks.
UPDATE:
The code to handle the back button:
- (IBAction)btnBackTapped:(id)sender {
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
I'm using Segue (from storyboard) to call this View Controller:
When the user click on "Meus Favoritos"
They will be redirect to this page:
The segue is with a Modal (from image one to two)...
When you are presenting a View Controller modally, it is likely not within a Navigation Controller, so probably the reference to navigationController in your code is nil, can you check that?
If you are presenting your View Controller modally this will work instead
[self.presentingViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
However, if you actually want to use a Navigation Controller, you should embed the View Controller that is presenting the Preferences View Controller in a Navigation Controller and present the Preferences View Controller with a show segue instead of a modal one.
in the top view of my view controller (the last table view controller) has an add navigation item. i added a view controller object from the objects library and i ctrl + dragged from the plus button to the view controller. i tried the app and it works fine but i can't go back to the previous controller when i reach the last controller. since the last controller connected (by segue) to the plus button, i can't have a navigation bar on top. so i added one and added an navigation item called it Done. i created an IBAction method in the class that the last controller subclasses which have the following code:
[self.navigationController popNavigationControllerAnimated:YES];
However, when i run the app and press the Done button to go back, it doesn't work although i feel like what i did is totally legal.
If you would have made the final view controller segue a Push segue, you'd still have the navigation bar with a back button. It makes sense since you're adding a record that you'd want a modal view.
You can dismiss the current modal view with the following code:
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
Generally, you should use delegation and dismiss it from the presenting view controller. However, I think it's fine to dismiss yourself if you're using storyboards, segues, and ARC.
Did you create a Bar Button Item and assigned its 'selector' callback?
