Navigation Controller Toolbar to stay the same

[palo]

Hi!

I tried searching the forums for an answer but I wasn't able to find one so I hope you can help me with this one. I am new to iPhone development so please, don't be too harsh

I'm designing an application using the Navigation Controller. It has a well-defined hierarchy with several screens and paths. I would like to use a toolbar on most of the screens and, what is more, the toolbar buttons should look and do mostly the same thing. Is there a way to do this without repopulating the toolbar for each screen (view controller)?

Or maybe it is wrong to use a toolbar for this? The toolbar buttons I need to implement are:

- Home (go back to the 1st screen)
- Search (show the search bar and keyboard)
- Contact (show a screen with some contact information)

One or two screens would also have a 'Play' button to start a slideshow.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
