-(void) switchtodetail{
LocorecoDetailViewController *detail_view_controller = [[LocorecoDetailViewController alloc] init];
[self presentViewController:detail_view_controller animated:YES completion:nil];
}
Above code doesn't present detail_view_controller. More info about LocorecoDetailViewController, it is the detail view controller template generated automatically when using Master-Detail application template
So I have a controller called SearchController which presents a modal view to add a question. Searchcontroller is the one which has switchtodetail function. Switchtodetail presents a modal controller, to add a question. After the question is added, I need to present a new view controller (detail view controller) So the flow is SearchController -> Add Question (Modal) -> after adding back to Searchcontroller -> LocorecoDetailViewcontroller. Last link is the broken one.
If above two does not work, try this :
-(void) switchtodetail{
LocorecoDetailViewController *detail_view_controller = [[LocorecoDetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LocorecoDetailViewController" bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController:detail_view_controller animated:YES];
}
I usually use this to present view controller. I think one of these three definitely help you to resolve your problem. All the best!
use:
[self presentModalViewController:detail_view_controller animated:YES];
Hope this will work.
Hi please specify the nib name which you want to load ,so change the line
LocorecoDetailViewController *detail_view_controller = [[LocorecoDetailViewController alloc] init];
to
LocorecoDetailViewController *detail_view_controller = [[LocorecoDetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LocorecoDetailViewController" bundle:nil];
And also remove the completion:nill part from the next code

I have a UIViewController class and a second which I want to push modally preferably. However I can't seem to call [self pushModalViewController:...], how come?
What requirements do I need to meet to be able to do so?
I am doing this and getting a black view pushed:
vc = [[ViewController alloc] init];
[vc setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[self presentModalViewController:vc animated:YES];
I have made my view controller in my storyboard and given it a custom class. I am trying to present this view modally via this class as seen in my code.
Any help much appreciated, thanks.
'push' and 'modal' don't belong together in the same thought. You can:
present a modal view controller, preferably using -presentViewController:animated:completion:, which is the modern replacement for -presentModalViewController:animated:
push a view controller onto the navigation stack, assuming that you're using a UINavigationController. To do that from a view controller, use:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:foo animated:YES];
You're actually looking for [self presentModalViewController:myViewController.view animated:YES]
How are you initing this viewcontroller. From the posted code, I assume it is being initialized to a blank view.
Maybe you can init it from a nibname or something?
vc = [[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"NibName" bundle:nil];
[vc setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve];
[self presentModalViewController:vc animated:YES];
Also another thing to note, if this is a custom class and no nib file, is there any code in initWithCoder? How does the viewDidLoad looks like?
So before I've managed to work with TabBarViewControllers and create an application using them. However every time I do so the view acts as my main view. This time around I want my TabBarView to be my second view in my application
E.g
First window has a bunch of buttons, when I click one of these buttons I want the second view to show up. This view includes a TabBarViewController.
The farthest I've gotten is to have the button show a view but for some reason it won't show my TabBar view!
Here's the code for my button
- (IBAction)showEvents:(id)sender {
EventsViewController *controller = [[EventsViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"EventsView" bundle:nil];
controller.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
}
Any of you guys able to help?
Can't you just in the EventsViewController add the following code in viewDidLoad:
UITabBarController *tbc = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
tbc.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: vc1, vc2, ..., nil];
Anyway, I found a solution and it was actually quite simple. After creating the Outlet for the TabBarController and linking it together with File's Owner all I had to do was add
self.view = tabViewController.view;
On the viewDidLoad method
I've read the post : Pop-up modal with UITableView on iPhone
and I don't understand the following part of the answer (as I can't comment the original post, I create this new question) :
UINavigationController* navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:optionViewController];
Why allocate a new controller as the window from where the new optionController is called may already have one ?
What if I just write :
OptionViewController* optionViewController = [[OptionViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"OptionView" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:optionViewController animated:YES];
It seems to work...
If I have a list, that goes to a detail View, from where I switch to a modify view, and then from where I call this option window, what would be the code to use to call this optionWindow ? This one ? Any other one ? I really have a problem dealing with UINavigationController between screens... (where should be defined the first one, what should be passed between screens, when may I create a new one, ...)
Modal views don't use the UINavigationController of their parent. This means that if you need a "stack" of new view controllers in your modal view then you'll need to add your own. On the other hand, if you don't need the functionality of a navigation controller in your modal view then there's no reason to add one.
Here are sone more details of how I did it in two of my apps:
My root view controller has a UINavigationController. I open a modal view using this code:
TwitterPostViewController* vc = [[TwitterPostViewController alloc] init];
[viewc presentModalViewController:vc animated:YES];
[vc release];
The modal view is then dismissed using this code:
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
I'm confused something fierce over having multiple views. I simply want to have a button on my main view that activates a new view, which in turn would have an (x) button which goes back to main view. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to do this with two separate .xib files. How might this be done?
Thanks!
It might be easiest to just use the utility application as a template.
From there, you can see how you would load view controllers and nibs in order to bring up the new view followed by how you would exit it.
I actually solved it by doing it this way:
NewViewController *new = [[NewViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"NewViewController" bundle:nil];
new.delegate = self;
new.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
[self presentModalViewController:new animated:YES];
[new release];
You are using a navigation controller, right?
On the IBAction associated with a button tap on the main view, put
NewViewController *newView = ... // [alloc - init your view here if you haven't already]
[self.navigationController pushViewController:newView animated:YES];
And on the button on newView,
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES]
My App uses a modal view when users add a new foo. The user selects a foo type using this modal view. Depending on what type is selected, the user needs to be asked for more information.
I'd like to use another modal view to ask for this extra information. I've tried to create the new modal view like the first one (which works great) and it leads to stack overflow/“Loading Stack Frames” error in Xcode.
Am I going about this in completely the wrong way i.e. is this just a really bad idea? Should I rethink the UI itself?
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:addController];
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
Fixed. I got the behavior I wanted by pushing the second view controller to the first view controller's UINavigationController.
creation of 1st modal view
FooAddController *addController = [FooAddController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"FooAddController" bundle:nil];
addController.delegate = self;
addController.foo = newFoo;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:addController];
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
[addController release];
creation of 2nd modal view (in FooAddController)
FooAddSizeViewController *addSizeController = [[FooAddSizeViewController alloc]
initWithNibName:#"FooAddSizeViewController" bundle:nil];
addSizeController.delegate = self;
addSizeController.foo = self.foo;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:addSizeController animated:YES];
[addSizeController release];
You need to take care on which instance you invoke the presentModalViewController when you deal with several levels of modal controllers.
Let's suppose you have :
[myControllerA presentModalViewController:myControllerB animated:YES];
Next time you want to display a modal controller while B has the focus, you should invoke
[myControllerB presentModalViewController:myControllerC animated:YES];
in order to get the parent controller properly set.
The hierarchy of controllers is then A-> B -> C
Did you try calling presentModalViewController on self.navigationControllerin both steps?
