Question

How can I make a regular UIButton act as a navigationcontroller so that when it’s pressed I can open up a new view?

Answer 1

Create yourButton in viewDidLoad method as following way…

UIButton *yourButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[yourButton setTitle:@"YearButton" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
yourButton.frame = CGRectMake(240, 40, 75, 30);     
[yourButton addTarget:self action:@selector(buttonSelected:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; 
[self.view addSubview:yourButton];

This is your method code and createViewController which is object of CreateViewController class and it is declared in .h file…..

-(void) buttonSelected:(id)sender{
   if (!createViewController) {
                createViewController = [[CreateViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"CreateViewController" bundle:nil];

            }


            [self.navigationController pushViewController:createViewController animated:YES];

 }
