Modal view can be dismissed by swipe - uiview

I have encountered a strange behaviour when presenting my modal view. I have a scroll view on as my main view with 4 pages... tapping on a button on the scroll view presents the modal view, but i can dismiss the modal view by swiping left or right. Obviously i just want to be able to dismiss using the Done button.
This is the method i use to display the modal view:
- (void)popUpModal:(id)sender {
UIViewController *detailView = [[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"KeyboardView" bundle:nil];
detailView.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:detailView];
UIBarButtonItem * doneButton =
[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone
target:self action:#selector(doneAction) ];
detailView.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = doneButton;
[doneButton release];
UIWebView *webView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 460)];
NSString *url = #"http://www.google.com";
[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]]];
[detailView.view addSubview:webView];
[self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
[detailView release];
[navController release];
}
What would cause this behaviour?
Thanks.

Different navigation bar behaviour between CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController and CABTMIDICentralViewController

I am struggling to understand why the following views, one for CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController and the other for CABTMIDICentralViewController show different behaviour in my iOS app (written in Objective-C)
- (IBAction)configureCentral:(id)sender
{
CABTMIDICentralViewController *viewController = [CABTMIDICentralViewController new];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController]; // this will present a view controller as a popover in iPad and modal VC on iPhone
viewController.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone
target:self
action:#selector(doneAction:)];
navController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover;
UIPopoverPresentationController *popC = navController.popoverPresentationController;
popC.permittedArrowDirections = UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny;
popC.sourceRect = [sender frame];
viewController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(320., 400.);
popC.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
viewController.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
popC.sourceView = button.superview;
[self presentViewController:navController animated:NO completion:nil];
}
Opens a popup view on an iOS device, which does not show any 'done' button to dismiss the view.
CABTMIDICentralViewController shows no button to close/dismiss the view
While on an iPad tapping outside the view will close it, on an iPhone the view takes the size of the screen and exiting/closing becomes impossible.
The same code used for the CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController works as expected.
- (IBAction)configureLocalPeripheral:(id)sender
{
CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController *vController = [[CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vController];
vController.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone
target:self
action:#selector(doneWithPeripheral:)];
navController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover;
UIPopoverPresentationController *popC = navController.popoverPresentationController;
popC.permittedArrowDirections = UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny;
popC.sourceRect = [sender frame];
vController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(320., 400.);
popC.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
vController.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
popC.sourceView = button.superview;
[self presentViewController:navController animated:NO completion:nil];
}
CABTMIDILocalPeripheralViewController has a 'done' button
What is going wrong here? I have tested to make the views wider to see whether available space in the Navigation bar would have caused this.
Thanks.

setHidesBackButton does not work

this one is driving me crazy.
From my root view controller I'm pushing another view controller to force the user to enter some credentials in order to login. Unless the credentials aren't correct the user shall not be able to switch back to the root view. To accomplish this I'm trying to hide the back button but for some reason this doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
- (void)presentLoginWebView
{
UIViewController *webViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
webViewController.title = NSLocalizedString(#"IB_LOG_IN_TITLE", nil);
UIWebView *webView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:webViewController.view.frame];
webViewController.view = webView;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:webViewController animated:NO];
[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:IB_GET_OAUTH_TOKEN_URL]]];
webView.scalesPageToFit = YES;
webView.delegate = self; //delegate methods below
if (deviceVersion > 6)
{
[self.navigationController.interactivePopGestureRecognizer setEnabled:NO];
}
[self.navigationController.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES];
//The following line doesn't work either
//self.presentedViewController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:[[UIView alloc] init]];
}
The following code will work. Try only navigationItem , not navigationController.navigationItem
webViewController.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = YES;
Try hiding back button of webViewController
webViewController.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = YES;

How do i make the more button go always to more view?

I'm developing an app for ios with a Tab Bar. I have more than 5 buttons on the bar, so on the iphone i have the button more.
Now, suppose i have this buttons: Button1 Button2 Button3 Button4 More (and inside More) Button5 Button6.
If i click More and then Button5 i go in the view relative to Button5. Then i click Button2 (that is not in the More) and i go in the view relative to Button2.
So far so good.
Now if i click More i go not to More Tab but back to the view relative to Button5.
How do i make the more button go always to the more view?
You don't need to add more button. Just set the view controllers to the UITabBarController
- (void)setViewControllers:(NSArray *)viewControllers animated:(BOOL)animated
and it will automatically create a more button if you have more than 5 view controllers! i.e. the count of NSArray is greater than 5.
Another way you could do is, whenever the user presses more, the first button gets removed and other buttons gets added.
Basically you can create an array and keep all the buttons inside it. And then based on the button pressed you can navigate to that particular view.
For Ex:
Initially you have: Button1 Button2 Button3 Button4 Next
After Clicking Next: Prev Button3 Button4 Button5 Button6
I used this code in my app delegate.m to solve the problem
- (void)tabBarController:(UITabBarController *)tabBarController didSelectViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController {
UITabBarController* tabBarController2 = (UITabBarController*)self.window.rootViewController;
if (tabBarController2.selectedIndex < 4) {
[tabBarController2.moreNavigationController popViewControllerAnimated:NO];
}
}
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
UIViewController *viewController1 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController2 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController3 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController4 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController5 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController6 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController7 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController8 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *viewController9 = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
[viewController1.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[viewController2.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor redColor]];
[viewController3.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor greenColor]];
[viewController4.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor]];
[viewController5.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blueColor]];
[viewController6.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor yellowColor]];
[viewController7.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor brownColor]];
[viewController8.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor magentaColor]];
[viewController9.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor purpleColor]];
[viewController1 setTitle:#"one"];
[viewController2 setTitle:#"two"];
[viewController3 setTitle:#"three"];
[viewController4 setTitle:#"four"];
[viewController5 setTitle:#"five"];
[viewController6 setTitle:#"six"];
[viewController7 setTitle:#"seven"];
[viewController8 setTitle:#"eight"];
[viewController9 setTitle:#"nine"];
self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = #[viewController1, viewController2, viewController3, viewController4, viewController5, viewController6, viewController7, viewController8, viewController9];
self.window.rootViewController = self.tabBarController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
I have added a sample AppDelegate code which I tried and its working absolutely fine for me. Let me know what problem your having in this.

Switch view to another view on storyboard

I am new in iOS programming.
What I am trying to do is:
I have some views in a storyboard and I'd like to switch between the views programatically. For example, when a button is clicked, I call a method and I want to change views here (I can call the method successfully). The buttons are also created programatically in different positions.
I have searched and I think it happens with NavigationController. I have a navigation controller which I created like so: menu Editor -> Embed In -> NavigationController. How could I do this using this NavigationController?
#Madhu and #Dilip ,I found a solution with xib filed class
icerik *secondViewController = [[icerik alloc] initWithNibName:#"icerik" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:secondViewController];
navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
navigationController.topViewController.title = #"SecondViewController";
//[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
if([self respondsToSelector:#selector(presentViewController:animated:completion:)])
[self presentViewController:navigationController animated:YES completion:^{/* done */}];
else if([self respondsToSelector:#selector(presentViewController:animated:)])
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
I have a class with xib file named icerik, I solved it like this. It is opening but when I want to turn back, What can I do it ?
You can create btn using this code:
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(aMethod) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
[button setTitle:#"Show View" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.frame = CGRectMake(80.0, 210.0, 160.0, 40.0);
[self.view addSubview:button];
and for going to another vc use this code,if you want navigation bar:
-(void)aMethod
{
SecondViewController *secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:SecondViewController];
navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
navigationController.topViewController.title = #"SecondViewController";
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
}
Else use this code:
-(void)aMethod
{
SecondViewController *secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController:secondViewController animated:YES];
}
And for come back to frist vc fromm second vc add this code in second vc.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
UIBarButtonItem *closeButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Back" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(backAction:)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = closeButton;
}
- (void)backAction:(id)sender {
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:NO];
}
If your new to Objective-c first go with Views/ViewControllers. i.e. use addSubView property of UIView
UIView *subView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 0, 250.0, kCCCellHeaderHeight)];
[subView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor redcolor]];
[self.view addSubview:subView];
If your little known of UINavigationCOntroller Use pushViewController
CCFilteredVideosController *filteredController = [[CCFilteredVideosController alloc] initWithNibName:#"CCFilteredVideosController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:filteredController animated:YES];
[filteredController release];

Releasing a popover which takes great amount of memory

I am using a popover view to present a large amount of flags of which the your can select.
There is something wrong with my code since soon after I open this popover memory is not released (the viewcontroller "flagsViewController" is ok and clean, it does init and release each and every item inside of it.
What am I doing wrong? How can I free memory as soon as the popover is closed?
-(void)presentFlags
{
[self.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
FlagsViewController *controller = [[FlagsViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"FlagsViewController"
bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] ;
UINavigationController *container = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:controller];
UISegmentedControl *ctrl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:segmentedItems];
ctrl.frame = CGRectMake(0, 6, 500, 30);
[ctrl addTarget:self action:#selector(changeSeg:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
ctrl.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStyleBar;
//ctrl.momentary = YES;
ctrl.tintColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
UIImage *theImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"highlight_country.png"];
[ctrl setImage:theImage forSegmentAtIndex:0];
[container.navigationBar addSubview:ctrl];
[ctrl release];
//
//create a popover controller
self.popoverController = [[[UIPopoverController alloc]
initWithContentViewController:container] autorelease];
[container release];
[popoverController setPopoverContentSize:CGSizeMake(500, 600)];
//present the popover view non-modal with a
//refrence to the button pressed within the current view
[popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(popoverArrowPossition, 0.0, 0.0, 52.0) inView:super.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionUp animated:YES];
[controller release];
}
Working with the UIPopoverController has been pretty difficult but I solved this problem by doing the following setting the Delegate of the Popover Controller to self (popoverController.delegate = self) and adding the UIPopoverControllerDelegate Protocol to your Class Header
Next, I implemented the - (void)popoverControllerDidDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController delegate method and here I released the popoverController and set it to nil.
- (void)popoverControllerDidDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController {
[self.popoverController release];
self.popoverController = nil;
}
Please note: This delegate method won't be called if you dismiss the popover via code (i.e. using dismissPopoverAnimated), it'll only be called if this User dismisses it by tapping outside the popover etc.
