iOS Gap At Top Of View Goes Away

[zachsilvey]

Why is it that when I use this code in the AppDelegate the gap between the UILabel and the top of the view I created in the xib goes away. Am I adding the subview the wrong way?

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {    
    
	MainViewController *mainView = [[MainViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"MainViewController" bundle:nil];
	
	[self.window addSubview:mainView.view];
	
	[mainView release];
    
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
    
    return YES;
}

Is the (missing) gap about 20 pixels high, the same height as your status bar?

Exactly. I have been googling like crazy to figure this out to no avail.

Does your MainViewController XIB have a Status Bar set appropriately in the Simulated User Interface Elements?

Status bar is set to "Grey"
