Dismissing View Controller Doesn't Work While Using Navigation Controller

Question

I have two view controllers.

The first one is embedded in a Navigation Controller. On the first view controller there is Bar Button Item which is connected by a segue to the second view controller. The segue is set as Push. Once I go to the second view controller there is a Bar Button Item which is an IBAction and should dismiss the page, but it doesn't.

Second View Controller Code:

import UIKit

class Page2ViewController: UIViewController {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

    }

    @IBAction func donePressed(_ sender: Any) {
        dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

}

The opposite of "push" is "pop", not "dismiss". – rmaddy Jul 09 '18 at 23:25 — rmaddy, Jul 09 '18 at 23:25
@rmaddy what is the function for "pop" – Jul 09 '18 at 23:33 — , Jul 09 '18 at 23:33
Look at the documentation for `UINavigationController`. – rmaddy Jul 09 '18 at 23:40 — rmaddy, Jul 09 '18 at 23:40

Within your donePressed(_:) function, access the navigation controller and call the popViewController(_:) function.

@IBAction func donePressed(_ sender: Any) {
     navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
}
