In most part of my iPhone application I want to show things with navigation controller and tab bar. But for few screens I need more space so I want to remove the tab bar.

I found before calling the controller that doesn’t need the tab bar I can set to hide it,

CardImageViewController *cardImage = [[CardImageViewController alloc] 
initWithNibName:@"CardImageViewController" bundle:nil];

cardImage.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;

[self.navigationController pushViewController:cardImage animated:YES];
[cardImage release];

The problem is now I can’t get it to display again. If I set 

xxx.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = NO;

for the next controller still I can’t see the tab bar

How do I get it to display.

The bar will remain hidden until you pop that controller that you hide off the navigation stack.

Refer to: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UIViewController_Class/Reference/Reference.html

One way to solve this is to present modal view for those controllers that you want to hide the tab bar

In which view you want tab Bar hide use

cardImage.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;

this before push

and now in viewWillDisAppear of same view you need

cardImage.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = NO;

  • This work very well for a one-view controller. In my case several views that I need to hide more than 1 tab bar (1st view – tab bar), (2nd view – no tab bar), (3rd view – no tab bar), (4th view – tab bar), is there a way to skip multiple views – Janaka Jan 28 '11 at 08:48
  • If I used the navigation controller back button to go back, then tab bar will gain appear in the 2nd view controller, which we hide before – Janaka Jan 28 '11 at 09:08
