Question

I have made a UIImagePickerController with a custom overlay view in order to enhance the interface and it’s working great the first time I load it, it’s perfect.
The problem is that if I dismiss it and then shows it again I have a strange bug. the camera view and the overlay appear behind the NavBar and the TabBar of the previous view controller.

I have try different ways of implementing this but I can’t get this bug solved.

Here is how I call my UIImagePickerController. It’s inspired by this sample code.

[self.cameraOverlayViewController setupImagePicker:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
[self presentModalViewController:self.cameraOverlayViewController.imagePickerController animated:YES];

Once my picture taken, I dismiss the UIImagePickerController:

[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

Definitly nothing special in the way of implementing it.

And here 2 screenshots:

And now taken at second launch:

Answer 1

Thanks for your help Peko but it was not that.

After hours trying stuff, I found out that I needed to launch the UIImagePickerController from the root controller.
This is maybe because I’m using TTNavigator from the Three20 library.

So in my case to have this working:

[[TTNavigator navigator].rootViewController presentModalViewController:self.cameraOverlayViewController.imagePickerController animated:YES];

instead of:

[self presentModalViewController:self.cameraOverlayViewController.imagePickerController animated:YES];

same thing for dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:

[[TTNavigator navigator].rootViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
