uitabbarcontroller

This problem has been plaguing me for a little while, but I've think I've finally figured out what's wrong; I think I just need a solution now... Here's the background on the app. There are about 6 different tabs which the user can use, displayed using a UITabBarController. Each of these tabs is a custom UIViewController subclass, inside a UINavigationController. All 6 tabs are set up inside a nib file (MainWindows.xib). I need to be able to hide and show different tabs depending on if the user is logged on or not, and who they're logged into. I have this working like so: On app launch

I am well into building a Core Data tab-based iPad application. I am passing in my NSManagedObjectContext to my root view using the following in my app delegate class. - (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions { self.rootViewController.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext; [window addSubview:tabBarController.view]; [window makeKeyAndVisible]; return YES; } My question is: how do I set the same managedObjectContext on all my tabs? It would also be good if I could set up some of my service classes in the app delegate

I've tried to put following two lines into - (void)viewDidLoad. self.tabBarController.selectedIndex = 3; self.tabBarController.selectedViewController = [self.tabBarController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:3]; At that time, only Tabbar index to change 3 but View Controller remained at default view controller, mean 0. Is there any thing missing in my coding? Solution: Try by moving your, self.tabBarController.selectedIndex = 3; self.tabBarController.selectedViewController = [self.tabBarController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:3]; portion of your code to UIVIewController's - (void)viewDidAppear:

I am trying to switch between multiple different views using a UISegmentedControl . I found a really good example to do this in: http://redartisan.com/2010/6/27/uisegmented-control-view-switching-revisited However, I need to use a UITabbarController in my app. So the navigation controller is not available for me in the app delegate. Is there any other way to switch views in a UITabbarController using UISegmentedControl ? First, consider whether you really want to do this. UITabBarController already gives you the ability to switch views, using the tab bar. If you really want to do this for some

I created a UITabBarController like the following and pushed a navigationController, but I now cannot set the title of tab bar items etc... as the tabbarcontroller is NULL. Please can you tell me where I am going wrong. UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init]; LoggedInFeedNavigationController *lvc = [[LoggedInFeedNavigationController alloc] initWithAccount:account]; [tabBarController setViewControllers:[NSArray arrayWithObject:lvc]]; [tabBarController setSelectedIndex:0]; [self presentModalViewController:tabBarController animated:YES]; [tabBarController release

I have a tab bar controller in an iPad app with 6 items. Two of the icons will when you tap at them lead to the same view controller. This view controller has a list of items it will show, it will change slightly depending on which of the tab bar icons you tapped. How do i set this up with storyboards? Its possible to drag the relationship twice to the same view controller, but then it just shows two of the same icons on the tab bar. I want the two choices to have different icons and name. Like you've found, you can design the view controller once in the storyboard but won't be able to
