Question

I am building an iOS app for fun and here is where I run into trouble. I can insert an outlet and action in the ViewController.h files directly from my first View Controller through the ctrl+drag method; however, when I try ctrl+drag on the second ViewController it will not allow me.

Ctrl+drag on first ViewController

Ctrl+drag on second ViewController

Answer 1

You have the wrong document open in the assistant editor. It should be ViewController.h, but you are displaying UIViewController.h.

Check you have correctly set your second view controller to your custom class ViewController using the Identity Inspector (third of the right hand utility panels) then make sure it’s header file is the document you are displaying on the right.

update

From your comments, you are having difficulty setting the second view controller to a custom class.

Here is how you select it in the storyboard. Note that you are selecting the View Controller, not it’s topmost View
