In navigationcontroller application , i used
ViewController *modalViewController=[[ViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"ViewController" bundle:nil];
[[self navigationController]presentModalViewController:modalViewController animated:NO];
[modalViewController release];
above code will load an anotherviewcontroller....
I want to push one moreviewcontroller from this viewcontroller(ViewController)...
Can any one help me?
Thanks in advance...
If you actually want to push view controllers in the modal view then the modal view needs to be a UINavigationController. So you would do something like this:
ViewController *modalViewController=[[ViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"ViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *modalNavController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:modalViewController];
[modalViewController release];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:modalNavController animated:NO];
[modalNavController release];
I generally wouldn't recommend doing it because it is confusing to the user, but in some cases it makes sense.
Do you mean "push" as in pushViewController, or as in presentModalViewController?
In presentModalViewController

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?
I am trying to navigate from one page to another on a button click in a facebook appliaction.
I am using
registerUser=[[RegisterPage alloc]initWithNibName:#"RegisterPage" bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController :registerUser animated:YES];
for presenting the next view after getting response from facebook.
But it is not showing the next view. It works fine in all other places where I used to present other views.
Anyone have idea about this issue?
What exactly is 'self' here? Is it a viewcontroller? Or just a UIView?
I think this'll only work if self is a viewcontroller or some subclass of it.
My code to present a view controller is somewhat like yours (without a nib):
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
[controller setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical];
[self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
[controller release];
And to present a navigation controller it's like this (without a nib):
ViewController *controller = [[ViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:controller];
[navController setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical];
[self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
[navController release];
[controller release];
Sometimes simply copying someones code helps.
thanks for everyones reply.i have solved it after a long fight.i just dismissed the view before pesenting the next view and set dismissmodalviewcontrollerAnimated to NO.[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:NO];
nextview = [[LoginPage alloc]initWithNibName:#"LoginPage" bundle:nil];
[self presentModalViewController: nextview animated:YES];hope this help someone like me
When I push cancel button in the third view, I want to go back to the first view directly.
I also want to remove the second view.
How can I do that?
This is the code.
// this part is in the first view.
self.second = [SecondController alloc] init];
[self.view addSubview:second.view];
// this part is in the second view.
ThirdController *thirdController = [[ThirdController alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
self.navigationController = [UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:thirdController];
[self.view addSubview:navigationController.view];
// this part is in the third view.
- (void)cancel {
[self.view removeFromSuperview]; // this only goes to the second view.
}
EDIT:
Can I use popToViewController in called contoller? My app crashes.
I thought popToViewController can be used only in calling controller.
And popToViewController is used when it was pushed.
I did add not push.
[self.navigationController popToViewController:[[self.navigationController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0] animated:YES];
popToViewController:animated: is a UINavigationController method that you use when popping view controllers off the navigation controller stack. It doesn't fit for this scenario.
This user is adding subviews, not pushing them on a navigation controller stack.
As a note, it appears as a matter of design you should be using a navigation controller with the first view as the root controller, then the second pushed on the stack, and the third pushed on the stack. Then all you have to do is [self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES].
I think this will work if you want to keep your current architecture:
// this part is in the third view.
- (void)cancel {
// remove the second view (self.view.superview) from the first view
[self.view.superview removeFromSuperView];
// can't recall, possibly you still need to remove the third view, but i think removing the superview will do it.
// [self.view removeFromSuperView];
}
If you prefer to try the UINavigationController route, then the easiest path is to create a new project in Xcode and select the type for a Navigation-Based Application or a Master-Detail Application. This will create a UINavigationController in a nib and add it to your window. You can then set the root view controller in Interface Builder to your FirstViewController class.
If you prefer to create the UINavigationController in code, then that is also possible. I show that below, along with the rest of the code you need, regardless of whether you create your UINavigationController in a nib in IB or in code.
I also recommend reading the View Controller Programming Guide for iOS.
In your app delegate or some other code:
-(void)application:(UIApplication*)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary*)launchOptions [
// I would recommend setting up the UINavigationController and FirstViewController as IBOutlets in your nib, but it can be done in code.
FirstViewController* fvc = [[FirstViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"FirstView" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController* navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:fvc];
[window addSubView:navController.view];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
[fvc release];
[navController release];
}
In the first view controller:
SecondViewController* svc = [[SecondViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"SecondView" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:svc animated:YES];
[svc release];
In the second view controller:
ThirdViewController* tvc = [[ThirdViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"ThirdView" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:tvc animated:YES];
[tvc release];
In the third view controller:
-(void)cancel {
// returns to the first view controller
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
Use
- (NSArray *)popToViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated
to go back to a specific view controller.
Try this:
[self.navigationController popToViewController:[self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:1] animated:YES];
This will pop to the view at index 1. Hope that Helps!
// this part is in the third view.
- (void)cancel {
self.first = [SecondController alloc] init];
[self.view addSubview:second.view];
}
And I think if you have you don't need to be worried about removing beneath view, later these will removed.
I'm trying to use the pushViewController: animated: with a UIViewController. I have it housed in a UINavigationController with initWithRoot and it still doesn't work.
Here is my code? Am I doing something wrong?
CloudappSettingsViewController *cloud = [[CloudappSettingsViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:cloud];
[self pushViewController:nav animated:YES];
[cloud release];
It always crashes when it gets up to the [self pushViewController:nav animated:YES];
Any ideas?
Thanks
is "self" a UINavigationController?
It seems you are trying to push the navigation controller, but that is backwards. You should present the navigation controller and push additional views to it.
So the UIView you are in should already be in the nav controller then you would push cloud into that.
If this is in your app delegate, just add the UINavigationController as a subview to your app's window. If you want to present the UINavigationController as a modal view controller then do this:
[self presentModalViewController:nav animated:YES];
It will crash definitely because you set the nib to nil.
CloudappSettingsViewController *cloud = [[CloudappSettingsViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"NibName goes here" bundle:nil];
Create a nib and assign it to your view controller.
I want to know the differences between the
[self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
and
[self.navigationController pushViewController:controller animated:YES];
I have used both but still do not know or noticed the difference. when should use one of them ?
Thanks..
Basic difference :
pushViewController only works in navigation controllers
presentModalViewController works for all view controllers
navigationController is the instance of your UINavigationController, which is used by all the controller in your navigation stack (UIViewController).
Presenting a modal view is presenting a view on top of another view. You perform those typically for "tasks" that need to be started and completed in a self contained way. Read further on modal views on the apple developer guides.
Pushing a view on to the navigation controller is different where there is a logical need for navigation in the app. Say a drill down table as in the setting app of the iDevices, where there are main settings then you drill down to sub settings etc.
Whatever your questions are, if they are conceptual and generic as this I'd strongly advise you to google up "X programming guide" which will take you to the proper Apple programming guide :) X = view controller in your case

if base class has it's own NavigationController then you can write:
[self.navigationController pushViewController:objMyViewController animated:YES];
if your base class has only UIViewController then use:
MyViewController * objMyViewController = [[MyViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"MyViewController" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController * navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:objMyViewController];
navController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil; // make nil if you want
// to use it in next View
[self presentModalViewController:navController animated:YES];
now, MyViewController has navigation so you can -- Push -- another viewController by writing function as bellow in MyViewController.
-(IBAction)btnNext_click {
SecondViewController * objSecondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc]initWithNibName:#"SecondViewController" bundle:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:objSecondViewController animated:YES];
}
