UINavigationController - implementing back to beginning button

Question

I have a UINavigationController which has several screens that implement a logical set of stepped tasks ...

Is there a way that on the last screen I can have logic on a done button that would take me to the start without having to step back through the screens ?

I am really looking for code examples of the logic I would need to put on the done button?

Many thanks

You can re-initialize the navigation Controller & push the start view on Done Button. — user1673099, Sep 19 '13 at 06:23

You have to pop directly to rootview controller instead of just popping.

use:

 [self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

popToRootViewControllerAnimated -> It will pops all the view controllers on the stack except the root view controller and updates the display.

[yourNavigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

If you want to use popToViewController then

id rootView=[[self.navigationController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];
[self.navigationController popToViewController:rootView animated:YES];

You have two options to achieve this thing on DONE button ;

1) If your rootview is the view from where you want to restart than you can use as follows -

[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

2) Else you can re-initialize the navigation Controller & push to the start view.

Hope this will help.
