Question

I have found some code for my infoButton which shows up my new credits.xib but I can’t manage to come back to my RootViewController.
On my Credits.xib, I have linked my “Done” button with ToucheDown-FirstResponder-ToggleCredits Close.

Here is my code for the infoButton in my RootViewController.m in ViewDidLoad

UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeInfoLight];
[button addTarget:self action:@selector(toggleCreditsOpen:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *modalButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button];
[self.navigationItem setRightBarButtonItem:modalButton animated:YES];
//[button release];
[modalButton release];

and my code just after my ViewDidLoad

- (IBAction) toggleCreditsOpen:(id)inSender
{
    UIViewController *theController = [[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"Credits" bundle:nil];
    [self.navigationController presentModalViewController:theController animated:YES];
}


- (IBAction) toggleCreditsClosed:(id)inSender
{
    NSLog(@"Button Pressed!");
    //[self.navigationController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
    [self.parentViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

I think I am missing something should I create a Credits.h and put the toggleCreditsClosed in it ?

Here is the stack trace

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[<UIViewController 0x7c67610> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key DoneButton.'
*** First throw call stack:

Here is my Credits.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>


@interface Credits : UIViewController

{

    IBOutlet UIButton *DoneButton;


}

@property (nonatomic, retain) UIButton *DoneButton;

@end

and my Credits.m

#import "Credits.h"



@implementation Credits


@synthesize DoneButton;

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

}

- (void)viewDidUnload
{
    }



- (IBAction) toggleCreditsClosed:(id)inSender
{
    NSLog(@"Button Pressed!");
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}


@end

If a delete the DoneButton link, the Credits view shows up but I it’s when I press the Done button that I have a problem

Sorry but I don’t understand what I have to do and I cannot upload an image to show you but
in Outlets the link is (view<->View) and in Received Actions (toggleCreditsClosed:<->Button-Done Touch Down)

Welcome on SO !

Yes, you should create a separate .h / .m for your Credits. Then tell Inteface Builder that your .xib is a Credits class. Then link your button to this .h with the action you want. Basically, your last method should be in Credits.m :

- (IBAction) toggleCreditsClosed:(id)inSender
{
    NSLog(@"Button Pressed!");
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

Watch out, you dismiss the modal view with self instead of self.parentViewController in your code !
