I have a navigation controller, root - tabViewController, and i have one more ViewController, it isn't in Navigation controller, there is in ViewController - button.
How can i do on Clicking this button new viewController pops in current Navigation controller?
After a long series of comments ... How you are using this app couldn't be more different than the original question.
You need to replace the PKRevealController front viewController when the button is clicked something like this:
[self.revealController setFrontViewController: newViewController];
I have try to understend your question but i dont know if its that what you need:
Place a button in your firstViewController
move your mouse on that button and hold "ctrl" key
drag to the next view controller and choose push option
That's it!

I use UITabBar in my application. In one of my tabbars, i have a UITableView in a UIViewController whose root view controller is a Navigation Controller. When i click on a cell, i go to my custom edit mode which is a UIViewController.
In my edit mode I have a backButton that shows me UIViewController with the TableView.
My problem is when i click backButton, my TabBar disappears.
Do you have any ideas why my TabBar disappears?
Thanks.
In back button click, add the following code.
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
On my firstViewController I have a tabbar that contains my firstViewController and a helpViewController.
When I click on a button from the FirstViewController, I push a NewViewController. But, when this view is pushed, I want to change the content from the TabBarController to display other ViewControllers, like infoViewController, optionViewController and NewViewController. Is that possible?
The First Image represents my application. The FirstViewController has a button that will push the NewViewController. When the user clicks this button, I want that my app shows what is in the second image. Is possible?
Yes, this is possible (I just did a proof of concept in Xcode). Assuming that you are using storyboarding, you need to make your initial view controller a UINavigationController otherwise you won't be able to use the push segues. Then, make the first UITabBarViewController the root view controller of the navigation controller. Put an entirely new UITabBarController into the storyboard, and then put a UIButton into the firstViewController and link it via a push segue to the new (second) UITabBarController.
When you tap the button the old tab bar will slide off, and the new one will slide on.
Here's an example of how it all looks:
!!This app uses navigationController and TabBarController!!
Using the storyboard I saw each piece of the app, then I had the Idea: Insted of pushing the NewViewController, how about push a tabBarController? When the user clicks the button, the app will push the tabBarController with 2 TabController`s.
Just add New File to your project, sub classed UITabBarController. Then add this code to the init method of your tabBarController: self.hidesBottonBarWhenPushed = YES;
On ViewDidLoad just alloc and init what views you want to display on the tabBar and
self setViewControllers:[NSArray arrayWithObjects: vc1, vc2, vc3, nil]];
Working fine here :D
You can nest TabBarControllers. But that would look strange. And the first TabBar wouldn't be changed. Pushing a TabBarController into a TabBarController is not possible because TabBarController does not support pushViewController. Thats only possible with a NavigationController.
Anyhow you can change the content of the TabBar completely programatically.
I created a new navigation controller in my storyboard (not programmatically!) and set it to be "Root View Controller" to a regular UIViewController and added a button in it which says- forward to the next view controller (this second view controller is a view controller which I want that will have a back button to link to the initial view controller).
Now, whenever I try to link the button to the next view controller- "Pushing a navigation controller is not supported".
Help me please, and thanks
EDIT:
I accidentally subclassed UINavigationController, and not UIViewController in my class.
Thank you anyway.
I've tried this and have no problems, its all done in IB with no additional code required ...
Start a new project, "Single View Application" using story boards
Select storyboard and delete the views its produced.
Drag on a new Navigation Controller (it will bring a table view with it)
Delete the table and the table view controller, so you are just left with the Navigation Controller
Drag on a normal view controller
Right Click and drag from the Navigation controller to the new View and choose "Relationship - Root View Controller"
Drag a "Bar Button Item" on to the Navbar which should be visible on the top of your ViewController, you can rename this Forward if you wish.
Now drag on another view controller which is the one your "Forward" button will push in to view.
Right Click and drag from the bar button to the 2nd View Controller, and choose "Push"
Run the project and you will get a Single view with a Navbar and your button, clicking your button will Push the other view and give you a Back Button to return to the first View Controller. I'll try and post a picture of my storyboard if it helps.

I had the same trouble. I wanted to have a navigation controller on each storyboard, so that each could run independently, be individually debugged, and so that the look would be right with the navigation bar.
Using other approaches, I found the UINavigationController would be retained from the original storyboard -- which I didn't want -- or I'd get errors.
Using the AppDelegate in your view controller to set the rootViewController worked for me (borrowing segue naming conventions from Segue to another storyboard?):
- (void)showStartupNavigationController {
NSLog(#"-- Loading storyboard --");
//Get the storyboard from the main bundle.
UIStoryboard *storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Startup" bundle:nil];
//The navigation controller, not the view controller, is marked as the initial scene.
UINavigationController *theInitialViewController = [storyBoard instantiateInitialViewController];
NSLog(#"-- Loading storyboard -- Nav controller: %#", theInitialViewController);
//Remove the current navigation controller.
[self.navigationController.view removeFromSuperview];
UIWindow *window = [(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate] window];
window.rootViewController = theInitialViewController;
To swap views Programatically you would need to select the segue and give it an Identifier like "PushView" then call it like this ....
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"PushView" sender:self];
That will programatically do the same as clicking the forward button. I've created you an example project with the code discussed above. Has an -(IBAction) with code in you can use for programatially changing the view.

I also wanted to do this, present a screen (that had an embedded navigation controller) when the user pushes a button.
At my first attempt, I connected the segue from the button in the fist screen to the Navigation Controller, and the app was crashing with this error "Pushing a navigation controller is not supported".
This is the solution I found:
Select the segue from the button in the first screen to the navigation controller.
If it had an identifier, copy its name. Then delete that segue.
Then create a new segue by CTRL-clicking the button in the first view controller and dragging to the VIEW CONTROLLER YOU WANT TO PRESENT (not to the Navigation Controller that is pointing at it), and select Push in the small pop up window.
Then click the icon in the middle of the segue and paste the name you copied in the first step as an identifier for it.
IB is going to give you a warning "Scene is unreachable due to lack of entry points and does not have an identifier for runtime access via -instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:." Don't worry, it works perfectly.
If you want to customize the string that is shown as the Back button to return, you can add this line in the viewDidLoad method OF THE VIEW CONTROLLER THAT IS BEING SHOWED AFTER THE BUTTON IS PRESSED, that is the Child view controller.
(replace "Settings" with the name you need)
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.navigationController.navigationBar.topItem.title = #"Settings";
...
}
I drag out a toolbaritem in storyboard and set it on my nav controller, but when I run my code it's not there, is there something I'm missing?
EDIT:
Tried setting it in code as well in my viewDidLoad method:
UIBarButtonItem *rightBarButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Map" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(viewMap)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = rightBarButton;
Won't work either.
Here's how it's set up in my storyboard:
UPDATE:
Just found my problem. In my controller code when I update it's contents I change the right bar button item for a spinner and never set it back to what it had before.
UINavigationController already has a toolbar built in. It has a property toolBarHidden which is set to YES by default, which is why it is not normally seen. If you are using storyboard you can easily make the built-in bottom toolbar visible by checking the checkbox "Shows Toolbar" in the inspector when the Navigation Controller is selected.
See the UINavigationController documentation here for more details.
EDIT:
Ok, it sounds like what you are trying to do is add a right button to your view controller's UINavigationItem. To do this in storyboard, drag a "Bar Button Item" from the Objects Library onto the Navigation Item in your ViewController. You can then set the title/style/etc of the bar button item. If nothing still shows up when you run your app, make sure that your ViewController is connected properly with a segue to the navigation controller.
Also make sure you are adding the Bar Button Item to your view controller's Navigation Item, NOT to the View Controller itself. Here is how the setup should look in your storyboard:
To add an item to a navigation bar, you need to add a Bar Button Item to the Navigation Item contained in the view controller. Go to your storyboard, find the right VC, and find the navigation item (it's in the hierarchy shown in the navigation controller 'scene'). Just drag a Bar Button Item into that hierarchy underneath the nav item, or directly onto the navbar in the visual builder display.
The navigation controller only looks at your VC's nav item when that VC is pushed onto the stack; hence modifying the VC's nav item in viewDidLoad has no effect.
(I've done this programmatically before but I don't have the code with me, so maybe I'll add that later...)
I have presented a navigation controller (Nav1) as modal view controller from rootViewController
Then from Nav1 i created another navigation controller (Nav2) and presented it as modal view controller.
In nav2 when i click a table cell it pushes a view controller containing UITextField
Now the problem is when I click on UITextField it does not show iphone keyboard
Actually I am trying to make something like alarm label as in iphone clock app.
Just be sure for you have set the delegate the textfield...
[textField setDelegate:self];
why did you choose two nav controllers?
you can use tabbarcontroller by the way there is much more simpler way to achieve this.Search on google
check if
"reloadData"
is not executing before the UITextField becomes active
