I am working on a navigation based application. I am using navigation controller for this purpose. I want to use tab bar on one of the screens and i am not able to find any way of doing this. As far as i have read, it is not possible to add tab bar controller when you are using navigation controller. Is it right? One solution was to manually add a tab bar on the screen and write its delegate class but in this solution, I will lose "More" button functionality because this thing is handled by tab bar controller itself. Does anyone has any solution to my problem? Please help!!!
You can add a UINavigationController to each of the UITabBarController's tab views but not the other way around.
According to Apple's documentation you cannot push a UITabBarController on top of the UINavigationController. I'm not sure if that is a technical limitation or if they will reject your application when you submit. Either way you shouldn't try to do this.

So i have a static tableview with 4 rows, i'm connecting them to different viewcontrollers without using any code instead i'm simply dragging the cell and setting up the segue.
The issue i'm having is that when this segue is performed a navigation controller is automatically generated and embed at the top so i get the following result below.
How could i edit the text and the icon? I want to remove the settings text and use my own custom icon.
It's also worth noting that i have embed other navigation controllers throughout my app. So i'd like to target this view specifically rather than all of my views.
I suspect the accepted answer on this question may help: how to replace/customize back button image in storyboard navigationcontroller
You'll need to do it in your prepareForSegue I believe.

I would use onyx.Toolbar as my first component, then an enyo.Panels after that which holds the "pages" or views I want to give the user. Then only the panel viewport changes and the toolbar is always there.
I have the navigationcontroller based viewcontroller and I overriding the root view controller navigation bar back button in to my custom segment control with different purpose. This navigation controller is placed one of the separate tab in the uitabbarcontroller. If this is used as the separate tab bar then no problem.
But if i use this navigationcontroller inside the more option in tabbarcontroller i am not able to come back to the more option list because of backbutton is overridden in my navigationcontroller.
My idea is add one back button only if my navigationcontroller is used more option tab otherwise i need to hidden the back button.
Please help me in this issue?
You can check if a view controller is in the 'more' section as follows:
BOOL isOnMoreNavigationController = [tabBarController.moreNavigationController.viewControllers containsObject:myViewController.navigationController];
From a UI consistency perspective it might be better to always show the back button in its standard position and move your custom buttons to some other place.
Short Version:
"How do you get a simple UITable drill down UINavigationController-styled non-full-screen modal dialog on the iPad?"
Long version:
I have a very specific set of requirements that I can't seem to get working...
I have a functioning iPad program that that needs to pop up a non-full-screen modal view. This modal needs to have a navigation controller and a simple drill-down table that displays a detailed view that I can have edit some values related to the selected item in the table.
Of course I am looking to have the regular "Back" and "Delete" buttons in the Navigation Bar.
I can handle the detailed view, what I am having issues with:
Non-full-screen popup (mine is
always full screen no matter what I
try).
The Navigation controller will not display the Table View I tell it to and the navigation bar does not even have the title I assigned to it in IB.
I can't seem to get any of this working. If anyone has a step by step example of how to do this, that would be great,
~Eric
P.S. I am not afraid of doing this 100% programmatically, but all the examples I have been trying to follow (and failing at extending to my problem) use IB.
As for the fullscreen issue, you need to set modalPresentationStyle to UIModalPresentationFormSheet or UIModalPresentationPageSheet on the controller you want to present modally. I'm not sure of a way to do this through IB.
As for your navigation controller/table view, I think more information is needed to provide an answer.
I have a bit of doubt regarding my application which is being created using Mate framework. The first thing user has to do is to log in, so I created Login.mxml view. After a successful login I need to display the main view with applicationControlBar at the top and a workspace below. At the moment I have two separate views, so if I understand correctly it makes sense using ViewStack.
Thing is, I'd like also to display some kind of panel with buttons on top of the workspace after login - here is screenshot. After clicking on a button the panel should dissapear. To complicate things a little bit more, there is a possibility for this panel to change state. Clicking on a specific button may result in showing progress bar at the bottom of panel.
I feel I should create separate view, MenuDialog.mxml and put there buttons, progress bar and states, but how to display it on the top of the workspace? I hope my problem is clear enough :)
I would make the panel a popUp, with the main application (or the ViewStack's parent container) as the parent of the popUp. You can use the PopUpManager Class to close it based on user actions within the Panel.
Assuming that perhaps you do not want a modal login style panel (which many apps these days eschew) then you should absolutely use states rather than ViewStacks.
States are a much cleaner way to distinguish the various, uh, states that your UI can be in -LOGGED_IN, LOGGED_OUT, etc.
It may take a little to get used to working with states, but once you do, you'll never go back. :-)
