How to dismiss pop over view in content view? - iphone

Question

see the screen shot is clear to understand what I mean
you can see I add a navigationItem in my pop view
I wish I can dismiss the pop view
But it seems only tab the cell under the pop view
The pop view will dismiss,I try to add this method
[self.view removeFromSuperview];
It only remove the table view , the pop view frame is still there ,only without the content view
Any reply will be helpful : )
Thanks

/******EDIT******/
I use WEPopoverView into my project
And this is the code I create the pop view when I select the table view
if (indexPath.row==2) {
DaysOfWeek *popView = [[DaysOfWeek alloc]init];
UINavigationController *navPopView = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popView];
if (self.popoverController) {
[self.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
self.popoverController = nil;
}
else {
self.popoverController = [[[WEPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:navPopView] autorelease];
CGRect frame = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath].frame;
[self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:frame
inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown|UIPopoverArrowDirectionUp
animated:YES];
}
}
/******EDIT2******/
I try to add Done button when I create the pop view
here is the code , But it only appear a navigation , no Done button
DaysOfWeek *popView = [[DaysOfWeek alloc]init];
UINavigationController *navPopView = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popView];
navPopView.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:#selector(hidePopView)];

Answer 1

While you add the popup view, set tag to that popupView and then, add them as subview,
then use:
for (UIView *tempView in [self.view subviews]) {
if ([tempView tag]==urTag) {
[tempView removeFromSuperview];
}
}
This retrieves all the subviews and then remove only your popupview

Answer 2

I think that simply releasing your self.popoverController will do the dismiss properly, including all the superviews.
You can also have a look at the dealloc method in WEPopoverController to see which views are involved and need to be removed:
[self dismissPopoverAnimated:NO];
[contentViewController release];
[containerViewProperties release];
[passthroughViews release];
Anyway, the only advantage I see is the possibility of calling dismissPopoverAnimated with YES.
Hope this helps.
EDIT:
How can you connect your done button to your controller?
Make your button accessible through a read-only property of DaysOfWeek; then in your controller, when you create DaysOfWeek, do:
DaysOfWeek *popView = [[DaysOfWeek alloc]init];
[propView.doneButton addTarget:self action:#selector(fullyDismissPopover) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
In fullyDismissPopover, you call release or call the sequence of functions highlighted above (but release would be better, I think).

Answer 3

DaysOfWeek *popView = [[DaysOfWeek alloc]init];
UIButton *doneButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeContactAdd];
[doneButton addTarget:self action:#selector(hidePopView) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
popView.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:doneButton] autorelease];
UINavigationController *navPopView = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popView];
This also can figure out the problem !
