I'm trying to get working a simple operation. At least it seems simple. Ok, what I'd like to do is to push a view (with push view controller) from a view that has been pushed with modal view controller.
View1 --(push using modal view controller)-->View2--(push using push view controller)--View3.
Rigth now, i'm doing tests so i'm using a button to start the action. Here's the code I use to push from View2 to view 3:
//view2.h
UIToolbar *bar;
UIBarButtonItem *button;
UIToolbar *toolbar;
}
- (IBAction)demissModal:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)goView3:(id)sender;
#end
//view2.m
- (IBAction)goView3:(id)sender{
View3 *view_3 = [[View3 alloc] initWithNibName:#"View3" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:view_3 animated:YES];
}
This is the same code I use to push View1 to View2, and it works. But when pushing View2 to View3, it's not working. Any idea of why happens that? Thanks!
View Controllers aren't actually 'modal' or 'push' view controllers. Modal or Push describe a transition between view controllers (called segues if you're using storyboards).
What I think you're asking is how to modally present a view controller, and then push another controller. The trick is when you modally present view controller #1, to actually present a navigation controller with its root view controller set as view controller #1.
MyViewController *myViewController = [MyViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navController = [UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:myViewController];
// Presuming a view controller is asking for the modal transition in the first place.
[self presentViewController:navController animated:YES completion:nil];
// Now in myViewController, call [self.navigationController pushViewController:secondViewController animated:YES];
This is what it looks like using storyboards:
First of all, I'm not sure where that gegant_se is coming from.
Second of all, if you're pushing view2 from view1 the same way you're pushing view3 from view2, you're not using a modal.
Whenever you use a navigation controller to push a view controller, that view controller that was just pushed has a reference to the navigation controller, through the navigationController property. Try this:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:view_3 animated:YES];
Try this:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:view_3 animated:YES];
try this code AlarmList is view name .
AlarmListScreen *loscr=[[AlarmListScreen alloc]initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:loscr animated:YES];
[loscr release];

There is problem in view hierarchy. Here is flow of my app.
When app starts View Controller "A" is Visible. After that storyboard "B" is loaded through "StoryBoard Reference (Push)" ,Where another navigation controller is present and Home screen is loaded. On Click of Menu button in Home screen Side panel is visible.
Now When i click on side panel menu items view Controller "B" is pushed. This View Controller is Pushed Under Home screen and is not Vsible.
Help View contoller is visible under Home controller. I want Help View Controller should come on top of Home controller.
I dont understand what issue is coming..
Any Help will be appreciated..
If you are pushing view controller from side panel shows in image, will never push because it is not in navigation controller.
the answer depends on how you showing your side menu but from assumptions
what you need to do is to set root view controller or keep reference of navigation controller and push from there
If you are presenting side menu then it is not on navigation controller so you should first dismiss this side menu and on the completion of it you should push new view controller (says B or Help). I am writing my code snippet that i am using in my project for demonstration,
- (IBAction)settingClick:(id)sender {
SettingViewController *svc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"settingsScreen"];
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:NO completion:^{
[self.vc.navigationController.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES];
}];
}
Above method push setting view controller on current navigation controller after dismissing side menu
Now important thing is self.vc this is the object of previous viewcontroller (Home controller in your case i think) on which side menu was presented.
So my SideMenuViewController has a property like,
#property (nonatomic,strong) UIViewController *vc;
which i am setting with self from previous view controller (in your case from Home view controller) something like,
SideMenuViewController *smvc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"sideMenu"];
smvc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverCurrentContext;
[self presentViewController:smvc animated:NO completion:^{
smvc.vc = self;
}];
And i have used [self.vc.navigationController.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES]; i.e. two navigation controller to push because i have two navigation controller in my view hierarchy to push this new view controller.
You can manage that as per your setup that how many navigation controller you have !!
Hope this will help :)
After digging a lot, I found solution for this.
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Home" bundle: nil];
RootController *someViewController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"RootController"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:someViewController animated:YES];
I have set another navigation controller as root ViewController of the window and it worked for me.
Thanks.
I added a Navigation Controller to my storyboard and it appears like so:
Now in the table view controller, I gave the TableViewController a storyboard id and class to a TableViewController Controller
When I run my app, I don't see the Navigation Bar at the top. This has been extremely frustrating and can't find a solution anywhere. PLEASE HELP
To get to the scene, someone clicks a button and this code runs and it goes to my Table View Controller:
UIStoryboard *storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Storyboard" bundle:nil];
LHFileBrowser *LHFileBrowser = [storyBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"FileBrowser"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:LHFileBrowser animated:YES];
[self presentViewController:LHFileBrowser animated:YES completion:nil];
The error is in your code.
If you want to (modally) present a view controller when the user presses a button, you need to present the navigation controller (which will contain the table view controller), not the table view controller itself.
Right now, you're presenting the view controller, which won't show it being embedded in a navigation controller.
Also, you're mixing up two different approaches, by trying to push a view controller onto a navigation controller stack, and also presenting the view controller.
Code Sample:
Here's what you apparently mean to do:
UIStoryboard *storyboard = self.storyboard;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"MyNavigationControllerID"];
LHFileBrowser *rootViewController = [navigationController topViewController];
// Configure your LHFileBrowser view controller here.
rootViewController.someProperty = ...;
// Modally present the embedded view controller
[self presentViewController:navigationController animated:YES completion:nil];
If you want to change the presentation or transition style, you can set those details in your storyboard.
You didn't explain why you had to programmatically add buttons, but Storyboard segues would have instantiated and presented an embedded view controller for you, without you having to have done it in code.
The more you can do in Storyboard, the less code you have to maintain, support, and update, and the more likely your app will still work properly when a new SDK is released.
Update:
The better way to do this is to let Storyboard do it for you, by adding a segue from the button to the navigation controller that you want to present.
I'm updating an iOS app and receiving the following warning when presenting a view controller: Presenting view controllers on detached view controllers is discouraged <UINavigationController: 0x984e640>.
The app delegate loads the main view controller like this:
[self.window setRootViewController:[MainViewController sharedInstance]];
[[MainViewController navigationController]setViewControllers:#[[MenuViewController new]]];
MainViewController creates a new navigation controller and in viewDidLoad the new navigation controller is added to the view with this:
[self.view addSubview:_navigationController.view];
Now I need to present another view controller. I have tried using this:
[_navigationController presentViewController:anotherViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
and this:
[[MainViewController navigationController] presentViewController:anotherViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
+ (UINavigationController*)navigationController {
return [[MainViewController sharedInstance]navigationController];
}
I get the same warning with both of them and the view controller loads, but I cannot navigate back. I'm obviously doing something wrong, but I'm not sure what it is.
I think you want to push it instead of modally present it : presentViewController is a method from UIViewController to present modal VCs, whereas pushViewController pushes VCs in the navigation stack.
Try this instead :
[_navigationController pushViewController:anotherViewController animated:YES];
I have a storyboard in my application with a navigation controller and several views. This automatically puts a navigation bar with a back button into any views that are not the root view.
However, sometimes I navigate away from this storyboard to an individual nib. I want to navigate back to the storyboard, but not necessarily to the original root view. I currently use this method to do so:
+(void) TransitionOnStoryboard:(NSString*)storyboard to:(NSString*)identifier withViewController:(UIViewController*)viewController
{
UIStoryboard *sb = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:storyboard bundle:nil];
UIViewController *vc = [sb instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:identifier];
vc.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[viewController presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:NULL];
}
This shows the view I want but without the navigation bar. How do I specify my navigation controller or root view, such that the app knows to put a navigation bar with a back button in?
Thanks
The answer is to leave your navigation controller underneath the view controller you add from a nib.
Present the nib as a full0-screen modal. That gets rid if your navigation bar, as desired. From that new view controller, you can push more modals, add a navigation controller, or whatever.
Note that you could do all of this and stay inside your storyboard as well.
Once you are done, dismiss the modal to reveal your navigation controller, and you are back in business with your storyboard. You can push a new view controller onto your navigation controller without animation and it should appear as the front-most VC when you pop the modal that came from a nib.
I'm sure that this isn't the ideal way to solve this problem, but it did work very nicely for me.
Essentially, I removed all the views from the view controller that had been generated since I navigated away from the storyboard, but before the current view and popped the current view. In this case, these views were of one class (CheckboxListViewController) and so could be removed quite simply as below:
+(void) navigateToMainMenu:(UINavigationController*)navigationController
{
[QuickView removeFromNavigationController:navigationController allOfViewControllerWithClass:[CheckboxListViewController class]];
[navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
+(void) removeFromNavigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController allOfViewControllerWithClass:(Class)viewControllerClass
{
NSMutableArray *keptViewControllers = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
for (UIViewController *viewController in navigationController.viewControllers)
if (![viewController isKindOfClass:viewControllerClass])
[keptViewControllers addObject:viewController];
navigationController.viewControllers = keptViewControllers;
}
(note- QuickView is the name of the class that contains these methods.).
Any other classes that you do not want your pop to navigate back to can be removed by calling:
[QuickView removeFromNavigationController:navigationController allOfViewControllerWithClass:[YourClassName class]];
In the navigateToMenu method.
I am having a problem with this.
In my root view controller I am having a textfield & one button. I am giving a condition like if i entered 0 in textfield then only it should move to next view.
upto here it is working correctly. But now here is problem. Here I am having one button & given navigation to third view controller for that button. here i am getting error as
Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSGenericException', reason: 'Push segues can only be used when the source controller is managed by an instance of UINavigationController.'
image ref: http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/8533/myp5.png
and i am giving action for button in first view as below
- (IBAction)Submit:(id)sender {
if([tf.text isEqual:#"0"])
{
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main" bundle:nil];
SecondViewController *vc2 = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"SecondViewControllerID" ];
[self presentViewController:vc2 animated:YES completion:NULL];
}
}
Go To:
Editor--> Embed In --> Navigation Controller, to add Navigation Controller to your initial view
After looking at your screenshot, you either need to
Push your SecondViewController onto the existing navigation controller's stack instead of presenting it modally OR
You need to embed your SecondViewController in another navigation controller and then create and present that navigation controller modally from your SamplesViewController
Either way, SecondViewController needs to be embedded in a navigation controller before you can use Push Segues from it
Either embed your view controller in a Navigation controller or if there is a Navigation controller in the story board mak it the initial view controller
I also faced same problem. My problem was I was using model segue style (rather that push) for one before the current controller because of that I think it broke the Navigation chain before already.
Embed your view controller in a UINavigationController is a good option if there is no UINavigationController in the storyboard. Otherwise you can select the UINavigationController and select the root view controller in the inspector pane, then drag it to the UIViewController you want to use as root. the screenshot is as below:
I solved this by creating a custom UIStoryboardSegue between the UINavigationController and the destination view controller:
-(void) perform
{
assert([self.sourceViewController isKindOfClass:[MyNavigationController class]]);
MyNavigationController *launchController = (MyNavigationController *) self.sourceViewController;
[launchController setViewControllers:#[self.destinationViewController] animated:YES];
}
Try this. It works for me.when you set root view controller to first view and use self.presentViewController ,controller move to next view but instance of navigation controller is only for first view,third view required navigation instance so use self.navigationController instead of presentViewController.
NSString * storyboardName=#"Main";
UIStoryboard *storybord=[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:storyboardName bundle:nil];
SecondViewController *vc=[storybord instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"SecondViewControllerID"];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];
