I am trying to present the rootview of a UINavigationController in a modal fashion from another UIViewController. However, when I click the button that triggers the modal transition, I get a blank screen with an empty UINavBar. I suspect I am not attaching a view to the UINavigationController, but I am not sure exactly how to do this.
Here is the code that I have for the target-action method that is supposed to trigger the modal transition. This code is included in the implementation file of the modal presenter:
//Instansiate the root UIViewController
OzSoundSelectionViewController *selectionView = [[OzSoundSelectionViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"OzSoundSelectionViewController" bundle:nil];
//Instansiate the UINavigatonController and set the root view controller
navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:selectionView];
//Set up the modal transition
[selectionView setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal];
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
I figured out the problem.
I had a property declared in the rootViewController called navigationController. This overrode the property navigationController which is part of the UIViewController parent class. That screwed everything up.
