I am using TabBarController in my application. In one of the view of the tabbar I am using a UIImagePickerController to pick an image.
When I add the picker as follows
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.editing = YES;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePicker animated:YES];
[imagePicker release];
It adds the picker, But at the time of choosing the photo, The bottom bar having the buttons "choose" and "cancel" gets hide under my tabbar. How to resolve this .
The problem is that you are using self as the navigation controller that shows the modal screen. Therefore the tab bar navigation controller does not know that a modal screen should fill the whole screen. Since the UIImagePickerController can not adjust itself to a smaller size you have to use the tab bar navigation controller to open present the modal view.
I use the following code to show a UIImagePickerController from a navigation controller that is shown inside a tabbar:
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
using self.navigationController instead of self as the object that presents the UIImagePickerController did the trick for me.
This works for me:
picker.delegate = currentClassViewController;
[tabBarController presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
Have your picker-caller class own or have access to your UITabController variable and presentModalViewController against your tabBarController.
I haven't seen this problem - I have an app that uses a UITabBar and a UIImagePickerController together, and the tab bar does not obscure the image picker.
Inside my view controller, which is one of the UITabBar's view controllers, I'm creating the image picker as such:
self.imagePicker = [[[UIImagePickerController alloc] init] autorelease];
imagePicker.allowsImageEditing = NO;
imagePicker.delegate = self;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePicker animated:YES];
Seems very similar to your code, except that I'm setting the image picker as a retained property. Is your tab bar set up correctly? Is the view controller contained within the myTabBar.viewControllers array?

I am loading a ABPeoplePickerNavigationController on the click of a UITableViewCell.
self.peoplePicker = [[ABPeoplePickerNavigationController alloc] init];
self.peoplePicker.peoplePickerDelegate = self;
[self.peoplePicker setDelegate:self];
self.peoplePicker.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
[self presentViewController:self.peoplePicker animated:YES completion:nil];
When the picker is presented as UIModalPresentationFormSheet, I want to disable the UIViewController behind it. For that I could load a transparent view on presenting the picker and dismiss it when the picker is dismissed. So the tap on the viewcontroller wont work.
I would like to know if there is another way to do it, where I wouldn't require to create a new UIView and load/dismiss it.
You can setUserInteractionEnabled property on the view of the ViewController before presenting and after dismissing the Picker view.
I've got a fullscreen view inside of a UINavigationController. When I attempt to present a modal view on top of it, the UINavigationBar changes to opaque, pushing down the content, before the modal view animates. How do I keep this from happening?
ContextMenuViewController *cmvc =
[[ContextMenuViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[cmvc setDelegate:self];
UINavigationController *navControl =
[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:cmvc];
[cmvc release];
[navControl.navigationBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:navControl animated:YES];
[navControl release];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication]
setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent
animated:NO];
The UINavigationController's root view does not have any transparency (status bar nor UINavigationBar), only the pushed controllers have the transparency.
I created a video of the issue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSFvzTR5Ejk
Example source at: http://cl.ly/7lu2
I tried your code in a very small test project and didn't see the issue you describe. I suggest you do the same thing. Start with the Navigation-based Application template. In the main nib, check the navigation controller's Wants Full Screen and Resize View From Nib, and make its nav bar transparent. In the root view controller's nib, put a button that you can respond to, set up the action, and paste in your code. Create the ContextMenuViewController class; there is no need to give it a nib.
Run the app and press the button. The modal view slides into place, with a transparent nav bar, without affecting the transparency of the nav bar that already exists and without moving the existing content.
So now, once you've proved to yourself that it works in this simple project, it's just a question of locating what you're doing different from that in the real project.
Try setting the bar styles during viewDidLoad for the root View Controller.
HERE YOU GO )
OptionsViewController *detailViewController = [[OptionsViewController
alloc] initWithNibName:#"OptionsViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *optionsController = [[UINavigationController
alloc] initWithRootViewController:detailViewController];
[detailViewController release];
optionsController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;
optionsController.navigationBar.opaque = YES;
optionsController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor clearColor];
optionsController.navigationBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor
clearColor];
optionsController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[self presentModalViewController:optionsController animated:YES];
[optionsController release];
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
In my application the modal navigationcontroller that I am presenting is going under the current navigationcontroller so I'm not able to view the new navigationbar as it's disappearing under the current one.
I'm presenting the modalview on self and not self.navigationcontroller because self.navigationcontroller doesn't present the modalviewcontroller.
Also how to push a view on this modal navigationcontroller?
I'm using following code in one of my viewControllers:
fullListTopCompanies *fullListTopCompaniesInstance = [[fullListTopCompanies alloc] initWithNibName:#"fullListTopCompanies" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:fullListTopCompaniesInstance];
fullListTopCompaniesInstance.navigationController.navigationItem.title = #"F";
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
[navigationController release];
[fullListTopCompaniesInstance release];
Can anybody please help?
Thanx in advance.
use animated with transition
according to me you have to change the animation style
i done it before but forgot the code i will post it when i get it
self.navigationController.navigationItem.title = #"F";
Add the above line of code in viewDidLoad method of "fullListTopCompanies" class.
Actually your navigation bar hides because of the modal view and modal view by default doesnt have Navigation bar.To add a navigation bar to modal view you can try the below code:
In Header File
IBOutlet fullListTopCompanies *fullListTopCompaniesInstance;
In Implementation File
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithNibName:#"fullListTopCompanies" bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController:nav animated:YES];
[nav release];
Also on the "fullListTopCompanies" View Controller dont forget to put a left navigation bar button item for dismissing the modal view.
So add that left bar button (Ideally Cancel Button on navigation bar) and event handler for that left barr button should contain the code
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
Hope this helps.
So, I'm having some issues with my implementation of the Three20 TTLauncherView. I am using their code, not a fork (although I have heard of rodmaz's version), and I can't get it to work properly. This is what my app looks like.
alt text http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/8792/screenshot20100715at409.png
I removed the icon image, that's not the issue. The issue is, at the top there is no Navigation bar at all, and I believe also causes the white strip at the bottom, which appears to have the same dimensions as a Nav Bar. I've spent quite a while looking through their code and can't figure this out at all. It looks like their Navigation bar (as seen in their Catalog example app) stems from the TTTableViewController, or something further up. However, my app starts like the Facebook app does, not into a table, but into the TTLauncherView. So... how do I get the Navigation bar into my TTLauncher view, if it goes "App Delegate -> TTLauncherView Subclass"
Thanks for your help!
Edit:
Added the code I used. I put this in my app delegate, wrapping my first view with the UINavigation Controller, and it worked just as I wanted!
MainViewController *aController = [[MainViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil]; //my Main view
self.mainViewController = aController;
[aController release]; //release for Memory Management
self.mainViewController.view.frame = [UIScreen mainScreen].applicationFrame;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] init];
[navigationController pushViewController:self.mainViewController animated:NO]; //Gets the main view on the screen
[window addSubview:navigationController.view];
You simply wrap the view with a navigation bar before you push the new view. As an example, here is a snippet of my code where I present a modal view controller with a navigation bar.
- (IBAction) showNewNavView: (id) sender
{
// Present it as a modal view and wrap the controller in a navigation controller to provide a navigation bar for the Edit and Save buttons
ModalViewController *addController = [[ModalViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ModalViewController" bundle:nil];
addController.delegate = self;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:addController];
navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
[navigationController release];
[addController release];
}
If you want to add any buttons or set the title of it, you need to do that in the viewDidLoad method of the view that you are pushing (i.e. your TTLauncher view)
