View being blocked by UITransitionView after being presented

Question

I have a side navigation controller and present it via a UIButton. When I make this NC the root view controller directly by [self presentviewcontroller: NC animated: Y

Answer 1

I had the same issue but in a little different scenario, I ended up doing something very similar to find the view but instead of removing the view which can be more problematic I disabled the user interaction so any touch events just go throw it and any other objects can handle to user's interaction. In my case this was only present after updating the app to iOS 10, the same code running in iOS 9 didn't fall into this.
