I have a table view that pushes to a detail view controller. From the detail view controller, when I press the ‘back’ button, I’d like an integer value to change. How do I edit the navigation bar back button’s action programatically. The back button is automatically placed in my app because I’m using a table view so I didn’t actually create the button, so I don’t know how to affect it’s method.
To be clear, I still want the back button to go back to the original view, but simultaneously change an integer’s value. Thanks!
I’ve figured out an easy fix to this. I simply unchecked ‘Shows Navigation Bar’ in the Interface Builder for the UINavigationController that the Table View was contained in. Then I used a UINavigationBar to replicate the look (but be able to add and delete buttons as I pleased).
After that I just created IBAction’s that I connected to the buttons and could control an integer value from there.
(P.S. The only problem with this is that there is no ‘Back’ button left pointing arrow shape in the XCode interface builder as many of you know. There are solutions around this that are pretty easily found if you search).
