iOS Navigation bar of a modal view dissapear under the current navigation bar

[roeik]

Hi,

Inside the rootviewcontroller of a navigation controller, I am calling a modal view controller, like this:

   picker.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleDefault; 
   [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];

The problem is that the navigationbar of the modal view controller (picker in my case) goes under the existing navigation bar, instead of on top of it.

I tried everything but I can't figure out what is the problem. Any ideas?

Thank you.

That is because you are calling on the view that is contained inside the navigation controller, meaning that the view is behind the nav controller.

So what do I do?

I tried to this, but nothing happens.

 [self.navigationController presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];

Are you using a toolbar or tabbar in your app at all or is it just a navigation controller.

It's just a navigation controller....

I just created a sample project that does just that a nav controller, with the code to present a modal view in the root view controller. I used

[self presentModalViewController: animated: ];

as you did in your first post and it worked just fine.
