I have an initial ‘parent menu’ view controller with a ‘photos’ button (more buttons to come like ‘events’).
From the Photos button I have a simple ctrl-drag segue to a navigation controller which has a tableview as it’s first view(albums), collections view(thumbs), then imageview(fullsize).
The problem I am having is:
I want to be able to segue back to the initial simple ‘parent menu’ view controller from the first table view after the nav controller.
I tried:
- dragging a button into the table view’s top menu bar area (it was considered a UINavigationItem) and dragging a segue back to the menu… didn’t work.
- setup outlet from button in the tableview menu area to its parent view and calling [self performSegueWithIdentifier: @”BackToMenu” sender: self]; from there, didn’t work.
- dragging a button into the table view as a last item and ctrl+dragging it as a segue to the menu: didn’t work.
- tried a segue going back from the nav controller to the menu and manually calling it, but the outlet function connected to the ‘menu’ button I dragged into the tableview top back NEVER gets hit.
What am I missing?
I plan to have a few navigation controllers going out from the menu page in the storyboard from multiple buttons.
What I wound up doing was making the nav controller first before anything and then my menu page was first with buttons down each respective path.
on the above: The ctrl+drag didnt work from the nav bar button, kept totally blowing up.
I did not realize I could go from nav controller to a regular view controller first. thought it needed to go to table view first since when you drag out a nav it comes paired with a table.
If I had 10+ ‘points’ in this strange forum I’d post a screen shot of the storyboard.
Thanks all
