still cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. Just trying to get a modal view with a navigation controller inside.
Here is my project http://www.matthewpateman.com/New.zip
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? I want "ShopModalView.xib" to pop up in the navigation controller, but its just diplaying a blank page…
Present it as a modal view and wrap the controller in a navigation controller to provide a navigation bar in case you want to add edit, save, etc buttons
ModalViewController *modalController = [[ModalViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"ModalViewController" bundle:nil]; modalController.delegate = self; // Set any delegate you may have // This is where you wrap the view up nicely in a navigation controller UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:modalController]; // You can even set the style of stuff before you show it navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent; // And now you want to present the view in a modal fashion [self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES completion:nil]; 
NSInternalInconsistencyException error (it had nothing to load in applicationDidFinishLaunching and no way to set up the nav controller initially). You were also hiding the nav controller bar from showing when your view appeared. Keep your XIB's named the same as the view controller class that handles them... it's one less thing to remember.For those wanting to do this in Swift 3.x:
// Obtain your viewcontroller let viewController = ... // Initialize a navigation controller, with your view controller as its root let navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: viewController) navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = .blackTranslucent // Present it modally from the current controller present(navigationController, animated: true, completion: nil) ShopModalViewController *shopMVC = [[ShopModalViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"ShopModalViewController" bundle:nil]; //set properties UINavigationContrller *navCon = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:shopMVC]; [self presentModalViewController:navCon animated:YES]; [shopMVC release]; [navCon release];
