Question

I\'m trying to present a ViewController if there is any saved data in the data model. But I get the following error:

Warning: A

Answer 1

Swift 3

I had this keep coming up as a newbie and found that present loads modal views that can be dismissed but switching to root controller is best if you don't need to show a modal.

I was using this

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let vc  = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "MainAppStoryboard") as! TabbarController
present(vc, animated: false, completion: nil)

Using this instead with my tabController:

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let view = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "MainAppStoryboard") as UIViewController
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
//show window
appDelegate.window?.rootViewController = view

Just adjust to a view controller if you need to switch between multiple storyboard screens.
