The main: xxxVieController
and the second: OptionViewController
in xxxView controller I have
.h
#interface iMetroAlertViewController : UIViewController {
IBOutlet UIButton *option;
}
-(IBAction) goToOption;
and
.m
#implementation iMetroAlertViewController
-(IBAction) goToOption{
NSLog(#"Works");
OptionViewController *dvController = [[OptionViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"OptionView" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:dvController animated:YES];
[dvController release];
dvController = nil;
}
Of course a OptionViewController.xib, .m and .h are created...
When I push on the button, nothing happens (the link is done cause I have an NSLog
I don't understand why it doesn't work
It probably doesn't work because you don't have a navigation controller, so calling self.navigationController returns nil.
First you have to create the navigation controller
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary*)launchOptions
{
RootViewController *mainMenuVC = [[RootViewController alloc] init];
navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:mainMenuVC];
[self.window addSubview:navigationController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}

I'm trying to create a MFSideMenu however I never used it and do not know what it missing. Can anyone write a short tutorial on how to finalize it?
-(void)viewDidLoad{
MFSideMenuContainerViewController *container = [MFSideMenuContainerViewController
containerWithCenterViewController:centerViewController
leftMenuViewController:leftMenuViewController
rightMenuViewController:rightMenuViewController];
self.window.rootViewController = container;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
In AppDelegate.h
#import "MFSideMenuContainerViewController.h"
In AppDelegate.m
MFSideMenuContainerViewController *container = (MFSideMenuContainerViewController *)self.window.rootViewController;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"navigationController"]; //I have instantiated using storyboard id.
UIViewController *leftSideMenuViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"sideMenuViewController"]; //I have instantiated using storyboard id.
[container setLeftMenuViewController:leftSideMenuViewController];
[container setCenterViewController:navigationController];
In Your controller.m add:
- (IBAction)menuPressed:(id)sender
{
[self.menuContainerViewController toggleLeftSideMenuCompletion:nil];
}
- (MFSideMenuContainerViewController *)menuContainerViewController
{
return (MFSideMenuContainerViewController*)self.navigationController.parentViewController;
}
Put this code into your AppDelegate.m
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// init center, left, and right view controllers
MFSideMenuContainerViewController *container = [MFSideMenuContainerViewController
containerWithCenterViewController:centerViewController]
leftMenuViewController:leftMenuViewController
rightMenuViewController:rightMenuViewController];
self.window.rootViewController = container;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
Please, help to understand the navigation. I'm working with xibs. The scheme is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o82fxpte0hmyxcq/Scheme_Simple.jpg .
Here's my code :
#implementation AppDelegate
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
FirstViewController *firstViewController = [[firstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"firstViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:firstViewController];
self.window.rootViewController = navigationController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
#implementation FirstViewController
- (IBAction)button1Tapped:(id)sender {
SecondViewController *secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] init];
secondViewController.title = #"View2";
[self.navigationController pushViewController:secondViewController animated:YES];
}
#implementation SecondViewController
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
ThirdViewController *thirdViewController = [[ThirdViewController alloc] init];
thirdViewController.title = #"View3";
if (indexPath.row == 0) {
[self.navigationController pushViewController:thirdViewController animated:YES];
[secondViewTableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
}
}
So, I have questions:
Where should I create the next view? In my code view has created in "previous" class: view2 created in FirstViewController, view3 created in SecondViewController etc. All new ViewControllers are inside the method that initiates the navigation, is it right way? I think it's wrong, but the navigation is working.
Problems with headers in the navigation bar. It turns out that the title of view2 is only displayed when moving from view1 to view2, but when going back from view3 to view2 – header disappears. I googled, tried to add self.title = #"name" to viewDidLoad, initWithNibName, viewWillAppear – none of this works.
So I've solved the problem with disappearing title of navigation bar. The problem was in my custom back button: self.navigationItem.title = #"";
It was working and title "Back" from my back button disappeared but also title of navigation bar disappeared too. The right way to make back button untitled is:
UIBarButtonItem *backButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:nil action:nil];
[self.navigationItem setBackBarButtonItem:backButton];
I want to use pushViewController with UIsegmentedController to push to other view and xib.
Can I do that in xcode 4 ??? If I can , Could you guide me please ?
Here is some code that I try.But won't work.
-(IBAction) segmentedControlIndexChanged:(id)sender
{
if ([sender selectedSegmentIndex] == 0)
{
BDshelveController *shelve_page = [[BDshelveController alloc] initWithNibName: #"BDshelveController" bundle:nil];
}
else if([sender selectedSegmentIndex] == 2)
{
BDlibraryController *lib_page = [[BDlibraryController alloc] initWithNibName:#"BDlibraryController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:lib_page animated:YES];
}
}
yes you can, these are the things you could check
you missed segmentedIndex=1 in your code.
you missed to call pushViewController when selected segment=0
Or it is more likely that self.NavigatonController is nil
Your segmented control has not been connected valuechange to your action
If self.navigationController is nil, it depends on how you initialize your app, if your app is navigation bar driven, then this code in your AppDelegate should resolve the issue:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:yourRootViewController]; // <-- depends if you have storyboards, xib etc...you should this already initialized
[self.window addSubview:navController.view];
[navController release]; // <-- depends if you have ARC
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
Otherwise I suppose you can initialize it where you are, by giving self as root controller.
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:self];
I am working on a small app, according to the requirement the app should have a tabBarItem with 3 items. For this I have programmatically created the tabBarController in the AppDelegate.m file and added the 3 different viewControllers, instantiated them and everything is working good. I see the tabBarItems and all views are working. In one of the views lets say in SecondViewController I show a popOverController where I used a UITableView and populate it with items. When I click one of the items it should show another view lets say sendFeedback. Until there everything is working fine, but as soon as this sendFeedback is presented as the modal view, it occupies the whole app i.e it hides the tabBarItem.
I present the important pieces of code here for review:
AppDelegate.m
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]] autorelease];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
UIViewController *viewController1 = [[FirstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"FirstViewController" bundle:nil];
viewController1.title = #"First";
UIViewController *viewController2 = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
viewController2.title = #"Second";
UITableViewController *tableView3 = [[tableViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"tableViewController" bundle:nil];
tableView3.title = #"Third";
self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:viewController1, viewController2, tableView3 ,nil];
self.tabBarController.delegate = self;
self.window.rootViewController = self.tabBarController;
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
[viewController1 release];
[viewController2 release];
[tableView3 release];
return YES;
}
In my popOverViewController.m file I am checking which row is selected in the table according to that I present the view
#pragma mark - TableView Delegate Methods
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
sendFeedback *sendEmailViewController = [[sendFeedback alloc]initWithNibName:#"sendFeedback" bundle:nil];
downLoad *downloadFilelViewController = [[downLoad alloc]initWithNibName:#"downLoad" bundle:nil];
if (indexPath.row == 0)
[self presentModalViewController:sendEmailViewController animated:YES];
else
[self presentModalViewController:downloadFilelViewController animated:YES];
}
Can anyone guide me how to overcome this with the multiple views. In case if anyone requires more information from my side I would be glad to provide.
NOTE: It is the same with the other view (downLoad) as well
EDIT: Here is how I am initializing my PopOverController in the AppDelegate.m file
- (void)tabBarController:(UITabBarController *)tabBarController didSelectViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController
{
if([viewController isKindOfClass:[SecondViewController class]]){
NSInteger index = [[self tabBarController] selectedIndex];
CGRect buttonFrame = [[[[[self tabBarController] tabBar] subviews] objectAtIndex:index+1] frame];
PopOverViewController *popoverView = [PopOverViewController new];
popoverView.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(250, 85);
popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc]initWithContentViewController:popoverView];
NSLog(#"X:%f Y:%f",buttonFrame.origin.x,buttonFrame.origin.y);
[popover presentPopoverFromRect:buttonFrame inView:self.tabBarController.tabBar permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown animated:YES];
}
Thanks
Modal view controllers are used to "block" your application and fulfill a task before you can proceed. So modal view controllers are not what you want to use.
Instead wrap your controllers which have to be shown in the popover in a navigation controller. In the tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: method you can push the corresponding view controller to the navigation stack.
To slove your problem:
At the place where you create the popovercontroller initialize it with a new UINavigationController. And the navigation controller you have to initialize with a rootviewcontroller namely PopOverViewController.m.
PopOverController *popoverContentController = [[PopOverController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navcon = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popoverContentController];
popoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:popoverContentController];
And in PopOverController.m
if (indexPath.row == 0)
[self.navigationController pushViewController:sendEmailViewController animated:YES];
else
[self.navigationController pushViewController:downloadFilelViewController animated:YES];
I have two view controllers: firstViewController and secondViewController. On the firstViewController I have a button. How can I change the view when I touch the button?
- (IBAction)change {
secondViewController* viewController = [[secondViewController alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewController animated:YES];
[viewController release];
}
