Question

I’ve got one view controller that I want to have a top bar, and another that I don’t.

They’re both in the same navigation controller.

How can I make the first view controller have no top bar, and the second view controller have a top bar?

Edit:

If I use [self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES]; then there will be a black box where the top bar used to be until the next screen completes it’s fly in. How can I avoid this?

Use this property in your first view controller:

[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO];

In the second view controller, in the viewWillAppear, put below line,

  [self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES];

In the second view controller, in the viewWillDisappear, put below line,

[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO];
