Question

I have a third party control that wants me to put a view inside of it. I’m trying to get a UINavigationController containing a series of table views inside of it, but when adding the controls the navigation bar overlaps the tableview by about half a row, which looks dumb.

Here’s the code. I’m using the ArcGIS Server iOS SDK to put the navigation controller in a callout box on the map:

    IdentifyResultsViewController *idWindow = [[IdentifyResultsViewController alloc] init];
    idWindow.results = results;
    UINavigationController *nvc = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:idWindow];
    map.callout.customView = nvc.view;
    nvc.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 275, 400);

     [map showCalloutAtPoint:self.mapPoint];

Is this a common problem using the UINavigationViewController, or should I look to the third party control?

Answer 1

I solved this using some simple reordering of code – instead of using initWithRootViewController, I created the navigation view controller, set it’s frame manually, and then pushed the view controller on to it:

    IdentifyResultsViewController *idWindow = [[IdentifyResultsViewController alloc] init];
    idWindow.results = [self filterResults:results];
    UINavigationController *nvc = [[UINavigationController alloc] init];
    nvc.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 275, 400);
    [nvc pushViewController:idWindow animated:NO];

    map.callout.customView = nvc.view;
    [map showCalloutAtPoint:self.mapPoint];
