Hide TabBarController on loading view

[meaton]

Hi Guys,

I have a TabBar application (not using the template) which works great, but when a user touches the second of two tabbar items and the second view loads I want to hide the tab bar from view so they have a nice full screen, then touching the view/screen will show the tabbar again, i've seen this done in some applications but can't seem to find anything out.

i have googled around but most of the examples require me to use some sort of uitableview but I don't use one in this application.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,

michael

Is your tab bar controller on a main view.xib?
If so then it will load the tab bar on all views.
If want make a tab bar for all the views you need it on. So let's say you need it on rootview, second view, and fourth view you would just implement it into it.
For third it would not be implemented and without having it loaded from main view.xib it allows the user to have full screen controllability.
Now to get back to the controller you had before you can either use a nav controller or a big X button in the top left corner kinda like how iAds uses it.
