I am trying to develop an app with multiple tabs.
The main screen has 2 tabs with tableViews when I select one row from any of the two tabs, it should not display these 2 tabs, instead I want to display 3 different tabs (see the image).
How can I do this? If I add another Tab Bar Controller it shows 3 new tabs under the first 2 tabs (i.e. 5 tabs on one screen).

I'm interested if it is possible to modify the default behavior of UITabBar to display only 4 tabs total, with the 4th tab being ... More.
By default, tabbar displays up to 5 tabs with the last one being "... more", if tabbar holds more than 5 controllers. My designer expressed the idea that it may be easier for the user to navigate the app if we leave only 3 major controllers in the tab bar, with all "optional" content hidden in the more list.
Is there a default option or some tweak that I can apply to a UITabBar to change how many tabs it displays at once?
Similar to what Michael Henry suggested you can create the 4th tab as ...More but instead of using a UITableViewController why not re-draw the options at the bottom of the UITabBarController and show the next set of tabs with the first obviously being Previous...
With this methodology you'd likely have to keep track of what state your TabBar is in so that it properly influences which UIViewController is shown upon tapping a tab button on the second page of tabs.
I'm hitting this answer on an iPad or else I'd dump a code example. Sorry.

I am implementing a tab bar based application and i need 6 tabs in the tab bar,but the tab bar is displaying only 4 tabs and in Fifth tab it is displaying More with 5th tab and 6th tab in table view.
Can i have 6 tabs in tab bar without More tab?
Maximum is 5 Tabs in a tabbar. This is because when there was more than 5 tab, they would be too small and for people with thicker fingers it would be difficult to hit the wanted tab.
If you really want, you can write your own tabbar-controller that allows 6 or even more tabs, but you should not do that. The chance is high, apple will reject your app because it doesn't meet apples design-rules. And I think it is good, that apple rejects such apps!
You will have to create your custom tab bar controller for that.
You can not have 6 tabs in tab bar without More tab. After adding 4 tabs, in Fifth tab it will display More with 5th tab and 6th tab and it is the characteristics of tab bar in iOS. You can try toolbar.
Yes you can do this thing but you need to use customview.
your tabbar works in back-ground and place a custom view at bottom in window and set delegate for it and add this view in main window.
then you will hit button at bottom and you can redirect event to appDelegate class by delegate.
where you can set your desired tab as by button hit.
i think you may get some ideas.
I'm working on an iphone application that has exactly 5 tab bar buttons.
I've created a custom tab bar and added 5 buttons to it, each with a separate view controller.
The buttons are showing fine, but the 5th view controller is not loading on 5th tab bar button press. This might be because the 5th button is supposed to be the "More" button. Is their some way to override it?
No the more button wil only show if you have more then 5 viewcontroller in the tabbarcontroller.
You can customize your tab bar to do so.
There're some exist ones, like the one below:

It works Excelent! And you'll see the screenshot that it use five tabs. :)
AS per apple human interface guidelines if you have more than 4 tabs last tab is displayed as more tab and you can not alter it
I am creating my first iPhone application and I am stuck.
I want to have a tabbed view (with 3 tabs).
Each tab will have a list of articles for the user to view, and upon click the article will be shown.
My design as for now is:
Window
TabviewController
Each contains a NavController
Each nav controller contains a tabview controller (that displays the article titles)
A ditailed view is shown on table row tab.
The behavior of 3 to 5 is similar for all tabs.
Is this the right approach?
Yes, that sounds perfectly right.
I am developing an iPhone application using iPhone SDK 3.0. I need to use tabbar control along with navigation control. I also want to include a scrollview on the top of all views.Which contains a few number of buttons.These buttons are used to navigate to particular views. Tabbar contains 4 items. Total number views is about 8. So we can navigate to 4 of the views using tabbar as well as buttons on the top. The remaining 4 views can be accessed by using the buttons on the top only. I just created the tabbar and able to navigate to particular views using tabbar buttons as well as buttons on the top. But I couldnt able to navigate to other views, views that are not in tabbar controllers array. So please tell me how can I implement this feature?
Thanx in advance,

u want to navigate your remaining 4 view right? U can navigate that view using tabbar button also? when u creating an button on tabbar set the property [button setTag:Your number];
and when clicking on that button , at that check tag of sender and take a corresponding action.
let me know is this work or not?
