I wanna show TABBAR controller in modal view from 1 tab

Question

I made a tabbar-based controllers with 5 tabs and at 1st tab, there's a button to call a modal view.

but when a modal view showed up, there's no tabbar on it.

How do I show a tabbar at that presented modal view ?

Answer 1

For example if FirstViewController is the first viewController for your first tabbar, you should do like this:

[FirstViewController.view addSubview:theViewYouWantToShow];

Answer 2

If you'll call a viewController using presentModelViewController , it'll hide the tabbar of the application. You can use either of 2 way:

1. Set navigationController in first tab and push anotherViewController (without animation if you don't wanna show push effect)
2. Or as Sumit suggested add anotherViewController.view as subView on firstViewController
