I'm working on a tabbed application using storyboards in Interface Builder. The Stack Overflow question at TabBar in one view leading to a second view with another set of tabbar seems to answer or at least be relevant to my question, but unfortunately I don't understand the answer entirely.
The first tab in the UITabBarController takes people to the main/home view controller, which displays a short text on the screen. I want to add a function whereby the user taps on the screen and a new tab bar slides in (like in iPhoto when you tap on a photo that's been displayed) with options to send, trash, or edit the text.
I don't need the new tab bar to be translucent like it is in iPhoto.
How do I do this?

I have an UITabBarController which has 5 Tabs. So, my problem is, i want to make an welcome screen into the UITabBarController, but this screen should be just only one time visible, when the app started. After the screen appears and the user switch the Tabs, he can't go back to the welcome screen, otherwise he must quit the app and open it again.
I tried to make an UIViewController as an RootViewController, but he dont show me the UITabBarController instead.
Is there any way that i can solve this problem over the storyboard? Also with code it will be also okay.
If I did not misunderstand your question these ideas will help you;
Add an extra tab to your tabBarViewController , make it welcome view and make this view controller initial VC so user when landing to tabBarViewController this view will appear after few seconds change tab index selectedIndex as you desire from UITabBarViewController then hide welcome view button from tabBar.
Seond way : Inside UItabbarViewController create custom tabbarView (scrollable) you can use collectionView it's easy to implement and it cells selectable like buttons. Hide original tabbar make welcome view appears first, make its index sixth then change selectedIndex programmatically when you need and disable scrolling from collectionView with this way only your five buttons appears on screen and welcome view button automatically remain out of screen.
You can find example code in my Github repo UICWaveTabBar, UICSlideTabBar , UICExapandableTabBar
Fist link including .xib file, you can edit it from storyboard, second and third only code
I am working on a tab bar application. Is there a way I can programmatically hide one view controller from the scroll down list and from the "edit" list (but still be able to pop it on screen with a certain action, i.e. by calling its tabbarcontroller index)?
The problem is that I have now so many viewcontrollers that completely fill the "edit" screen. So I want to hide some of them and be able to trigger the hidden ones trough some action performed on one of the visible ones.
Thanks
I am working on a mobile version for my company's web app. The structure of this application requires uitableviews with a tab bar on the bottom and a navigation bar up top to return to the previous view. As you drill down in the application the tab bar items change at each level allowing selection of different views pertaining to that specific level in the app. I need a way to implement this with a navigation bar on top that navigates back to the previous screen on every tab in said tab bar when a back button is clicked on any of the tabs.
for example: let's say i start out with an items tab and a simple about tab. When i click items it drills down to a new view called subitems and the tabs for this view are subitems, favorites, details, and notes. I want the navigation bar to go back to the previous screen when i click the back button on any one of these four tabs.
Is this at all possible? I can't seem to find anything related to this type of structuring within an app. any help/examples would be greatly appreciated.
I know that a negative answer always sounds bad, but I tried to do the same a few months ago and I could not find a way of doing it using the standard UITabBarController/UITabBar. Take also a look at this question/answer.
The good news is that it is not that difficult to implement from scratch a tab bar controller that can be pushed on a navigation stack. There are also several examples around, one is BCTabBarController. GtabBar is another example.
I actually found a way to do it you just have to implement the navigation bar's leftbarbuttonitem instead of the traditional back button. Then I just created a method that is invoked when the back button is pushed this updates the navigation stacks of all four views within the tab bar and sets the tab bar items accordingly to match with the previous views we are navigating back to. . . so long story short...it is possible.
I am working on a project which involves both kind of applications ie Navigation based and Tab based. All things are working perfectly. But what I want is, when I click on a particular tab then a button must be added to the navigation bar at the top to edit the table below it. I am able to draw the button but it is not affecting the tableview below it. When I do this in navigation based application it works perfectly. But it does not work in tab based.
So please tell me the way to add button at navigation bar in UI tab based application which appear only at particular tab.
tell me the sample code or any tutorial for it.
For each tab embed a UINavigationConrtoller, and your own view controllers in them.
This way each tab will have its own navigation bar, and thus can have their own sets of bar items, titles, etc.
You generally never want to embed a UITabBarController in a UINavigationController, always the other way around.
I'm writing an app that has a 5 item TabBar. When launching, I want the app to show the contents of the view for the first item, without showing the Tabbar. I want a hidden button to cover the full screen so that when I tap anywhere the TabBar pops up from the bottom. I then want it to hide itself again after a few seconds.
I guess it isn't vital that it not show the TabBar on launch if it will hide itself after the predetermined time frame.
I'm new to programming, and I'm having difficulty making this happen. I've looked at the suggestions for similar questions, but they don't seem to help. Any suggestions for making this happen?
Look at the example code "The Elements". It hides the tab bar when you select an element.
