Question

The application has a Tabbar Controller as its rootViewController. Now the requirement is on click of a button in the navigation bar, another view should come half way into the screen without any tab bar, and the other half should have the original view that has the tab bar in it. Is this possible to create?
Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT 1:

I did try

[UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController.view.frame = CGRectMake();

but the problem is, another view wont be seen in this, as the whole window frame is being shifted.

EDIT 2:

I have added a dummy pic of the requirement.

Answer 1

Finally found the solution to it.
On click of the button,

objThird.view.frame = CGRectMake(120, 0, 320, 480);

UIView *windowVIew = [self.tabBarController.view superview];
[windowVIew addSubview:objThird.view];
self.tabBarController.view.frame = CGRectMake(-200, 0, 320, 480);

objThird = Object of new view that i want when the button is pressed.
self.tabBarController.view superview = Gives you the window view. thus now you can add your view to the window.

And the rest is just playing with the frames of the views.
