How can I switch views programmatically in a view controller? (Xcode, iPhone)

Question

Have been struggling with this for a while, and can never seem to get a direct answer.

Any help is appreciated!

Answer 1

If you're in a Navigation Controller:

ViewController *viewController = [[ViewController alloc] init]; [self.navigationController pushViewController:viewController animated:YES]; 

or if you just want to present a new view:

ViewController *viewController = [[ViewController alloc] init];     [self presentViewController:viewController animated:YES completion:nil]; 

Answer 2

If you want to present a new view in the same storyboard,

In CurrentViewController.m,

#import "YourViewController.h"  UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil]; YourViewController *viewController = (YourViewController *)[storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"YourViewControllerIdentifier"]; [self presentViewController:viewController animated:YES completion:nil]; 

To set identifier to a view controller, Open MainStoryBoard.storyboard. Select YourViewController View-> Utilities -> ShowIdentityInspector. There you can specify the identifier.
