Question

I add a UIView, minimisedInterface, to my view controller as normal

[self.view addSubview:minimisedInterface]; 

minimisedInterface is removed from the view controller, on a button tap.

[self removeFromSuperview];

I now want to re-add the minimisedInterface to the view controller, but on a button tap in another class, Interface.
What is the correct way to do this? I was considering getting a handle on the view controller from the Interface class but this seems a little counter-intuitive, as if one shouldn’t “control” the view controller itself.

Thanks in advance 🙂

Answer 1

The two likeliest ways that come to mind are:

• make the view controller a delegate of the Interface class and have a [delegate presentView]; method (or something of the kind)
• send a NSNotification that the view is needed again, from the buttons IBAction, and have the view controller listen for that notification.
