Hide the tab bar in a tab bar application

Question

I have created a new project from the template:

IPhoneOS>Application>Tab Bar Application.

I get two tabs.

How can I make the second become a full screen hiding the tab bar and even the status bar?

I tried to check the "Wants Full screen" - but it didn't help.

(Much less important... When I do get a full screen I do I get back?)

Please give me a simple code/guidelines or a reference to them, cause I'm a beginner - and Me and the compiler got too many issues to make things worse

Thanks Asaf

To hide the tab bar you can use hidesBottomBarWhenPushed. For instance:

MyController *myController = [[MyController alloc]init]; 
myController.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:myController animated:YES];
[myController release];

To hide the status bar you can use:

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES];

To hide the nav bar you can use:

self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = YES;
