How put together Tab bar + Navigation based in the same app.

[mamcx]

I know this question exist elsewhere but frankly I can't get it to work.

I read the docs (https://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/featuredarticles/ViewControllerPGforiPhoneOS/CombiningToolbarandNavigationControllers/chapter_9_section_1.html) but can't figure how do this.

From the info I found, look like the navigation controller must be on the AppDelegate, in a share var, and from the main window. I don't found that intuitive. This Is what I want (or expect):

- I have a main window with 5 tab bars. 4 load other nibs that are table based and need drill-down to details pages.
- I imagine that the navigation controller is on EACH listing window, and push from there

So, I have:

- Main Window: Customers, Products,...
- Customer: List of customer.
- CustomerEdit: Edit the customer

What I need to do to this scenario to work?

So you want a UITabBarController. That TabBarController maintains a list of view controllers. Those view controllers in your case should be NavigationControllers.

Each NavigationController then manages a stack of view controllers (list customers, show details of a single customer, etc.)

Ok, I was able to put that to work.

Now the problem is that the navigation bar is on the main window and can't be on the loaded nib, that mean that I must control the navigation from the tabbar...

No, the navigationcontroller can own it's own NIB.

I'm not sure what you mean by "I must control the navigation from the toolbar". That's not the case. As the user selects each tab item, you will be loaded an separate nav controller with its own navigation stack.
