Question

So I initially started with the tab-based application template for iOS 5.
I’ve got a tab bar hooked up to two views, but when I go to add a Table View Controller to the firstviewcontroller, It won’t let me.

I’m a little confused on how I should tackle this? Do I have to do it with code? Or is there a way I can graphically do this?

Answer 1

View embedding in Storyboards isn’t straightforward.

First, delete First View Controller:

Now, drag a new Table View Controller onto the storyboard:

Finally, create a relationship between Tab Bar Controller and the new Table View Controller.

Select the Tab Bar Controller and then while pressing the Control key, drag your mouse over to the Table View Controller and let go with your mouse. In the popup box, select Relationship - View Controllers

And now the new Table View Controller should be a tab within the original Tab Bar Controller.
