How to hide tab bar programmatically and then expand view to fit

Question

I got the code from this question: How to hide UITabBarController programmatically? which is brilliant, however the view doesn\'t expand to fit the space left by the tab bar

Answer 1

The easiest way is probably to set a new frame for the view:

CGRect viewFrame = view.frame;
viewFrame.size.height += 40; // Change this to the height of the tab bar
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.75];

view.frame = viewFrame;

[UIView commitAnimations];
