Question

I’m having a hard time trying to do something simple,

I have one viewcontroller that I want to use as a splash screen to the main menu viewcontroller. I can’t figure why the modal is not called from the splash.

anybody have idea what is going on?

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];


    UIActivityIndicatorView *indicator = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc]initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];
    indicator.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 180.0, 180.0);
    indicator.center = self.view.center;    
    [self.view addSubview:indicator];
    [indicator bringSubviewToFront:self.view];
    [UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = TRUE;

    //prepare all resources for app

    [indicator startAnimating];

    UIStoryboard*  sb = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard_iPhone" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
    MainMenuViewController* mainMenu = [sb instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"mainMenu"];

    mainMenu.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
    [self presentModalViewController:mainMenu animated:YES];
}

if I attach an button pressed event with the same code it works fine:

//[btn1 addTarget:self action:@selector(buttonPressedAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

- (void)buttonPressedAction:(id)sender
{


    UIStoryboard*  sb = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard_iPhone" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
    MainMenuViewController* mainMenu = [sb instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"mainMenu"];

    mainMenu.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
    [self presentModalViewController:mainMenu animated:YES];

}

I changed the viewDidLoad to viewDidAppear and it worked fine. I don’t know why though
