Question

I am completely new to ios development and I am only interested in developing for ios5.

I have an app with some scenes, they are mostly tableviews. I also use a navigation controller

I however need to add some status text and buttons that are always visible in all scenes and thought that a toolbar added to the navigation controller should do the trick.

so i thought that i should only have to drag out a toolbar in storyboard to the navigation controller, but it does not stick there. I can add it to the bar underneath with first responder and navigation controller but that does not help me (small icons).
I can also not add it to my table view (but if i drag out a plain view I can add it there)

do I have to make my own custom navigation class that the navigate view uses and then programatically add my toolbar?

Had the same question recently. Check Attributes Inspector in your ViewController’s properties in storyboard. There you can define a Bottom Bar.
