iOS Navigating views

[mtltechguy]

Hello All,

I’ve been struggling with an issue for a few days and I’d like to know if anyone could point me in the right direction.

I created a “Windows Based Application” which uses three viewcontrollers. I am using a navigationcontroller to navigate through the different views. This part has been successfully implemented and the navigation between views is functioning correctly.
UserViewController -> <- PackageViewController -> <-DetailViewController

My problem is that on the UserViewController I want to add a button that brings up another viewcontroller (InfoViewController) which will not have the navigationcontroller on it. I don’t want to add it to the navigationcontroller because entering information in the view will be optional.

Basically when the user clicks on this button a view will displayed where the users can enter information about the users (This part I have working).

This InfoViewController will have two buttons on it, a “save” and “cancel” button. After the users clicks on either button, I want to go back to the UserViewController. That is where I am stuck….I am not sure how to proceed.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You may want to present the view that is not going on the navigationController as a modal view. This will allow the view to popup on a button click and then at the end of the cancel or save action you can dismiss the modal view.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply and I think you’ve pointed me in the right direction.

I will test this later this evening when I get home but this is the route I’m going to go:

//to load the view
[self presentModalViewController:InfoViewController animated:NO];

//to unload the view
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:NO];

thanks again
