hiding alert views

[mickm]

i have a window that when up, i don't want any alert views popping up over it. the following takes care of that, but has some other side effects, like not showing the status bar, which just comes out as white space:

((MyAppDelegate*)([UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate)).window.windowLevel = UIWindowLevelStatusBar;

is there a way i can detect if an alert view is about to be opened and, say, put it behind the current view, if the view is the one i don't want alerts popping up over?

any other thoughts of how to handle this?

I don't think you can. Sorry. At least iOS 5 will make alerts less intrusive.

yea, i'm not finding much else. been playing with various window level settings, and not getting any results.

the first way is setting the main app window level. i tried setting the window level of the controller that i don't want these popping up over, and that isn't working.

still trying to figure out if there is a way to do this...
