displayed view is much larger than specified in xib file

[Dhotiwalla]

I am using a UITableViewController to display a table. When an item is selected in the table, I want to display a small GUI that asks for username and password. I have created the GUI using a xib file and IB and here is how I display it.

PasswordView *pv = [[PasswordView alloc] initWithNibName:@"PasswordView" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
pv.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
[pv setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal];
[self presentModalViewController:pv animated:YES];
[pv release];
pv = nil;

The GUI is displayed correctly but the problem is that the size is way bigger than what I have set via IB.

I've even tried putting the following code in view class, but that did not help

- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
    {
    self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
    if (self) {
        // Custom initialization
        self.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 200);
    }
    return self;
}

I'm using Xcode 4.0 and the target device is an iPad

thanks for your help

I just found this online

After the line that shows your modal view, change the view like here.

targetController.view.superview.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 200);
//it's important to do this after presentModalViewController
targetController.view.superview.center = self.view.center;

targetController here is from the original post, but that would be your model view controller
