I have a simple table view where I handle the select action on the table view. This action follows a segue.
If the segue is a push segue, the next view
Hope help this yo can create programatically modal transition like this in Swift:
let myStoryboard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let modalViewController = myStoryboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("myModalViewController") as! myModalViewController
modalViewController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyle.CoverVertical
let navController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: accountManager)
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(),{
self.presentViewController(navController, animated: true, completion: nil)
})
