Dismiss and Present View Controller in Swift

Question

Hi I'm trying to present a viewcontroller and dismiss my current modal view but this code is not working

self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: {
    let vc = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("OrderViewController")
    self.presentViewController(vc!, animated: true, completion: nil)
})

vice versa is not working too on completion block of presentviewcontroller

EDIT: replaced vc! to self

Answer 1

Here's a solution for Swift3

To present the ViewController

let NotificationVC = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "NotificationVC") as! ExecutiveNotificationViewController

self.present(NotificationVC, animated: true, completion: nil)

To dismiss the ViewController:

self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)

You have to get the viewController which presented self (current ViewController). If that view controller is rootViewController, then you can use the code below, if not then query it based on your view controller hierarchy.

if let vc3 = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "vc3") as? ViewController3 {
    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
    appDelegate.window?.rootViewController!.present(vc3, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
