Storyboard - Hiding top bar of navigation controll

Question

I'm using a storyboard and I'm trying to hide a top bar of my main navigation controller when a certain button is pressed (or function is called). I know I have to initialize an object referring to a navigation controller from a storyboard (using identifiers), but when I send the setNavigationBarHidden message to this newly created object nothing really happens on screen.

UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navController = (UINavigationController*) [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"MyNavController"];

[navController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Answer 1

In Xamarin.iOS

base.NavigationController.NavigationBarHidden = true;

Answer 2

SetRoot RootViewController after Changing the Properties.

  UIStoryboard *storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:nil];

// Create Navigation controller with RootViewController
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:[storyBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"MyRootViewController"]];

Setting RootViewController

 [appDelegate.window setRootViewController: navController];

or else you Can Do in any ViewController

[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];

Answer 3

Finally solved it. You should always hide navigation bar only through viewController.

In my question above I instantiated a whole new navigationController which didn't point at the real navController on the screen. You can obtain the "real" one through the view controller like this:

[viewController.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];

Answer 4

I faced same problem, this worked for me

navController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;

Answer 5

There are 2 ways to hide top bar of Navigation Controller:

1) Programatically

[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];

2) Using Interface Builder

You can uncheck "Shows Navigation Bar" in property list of Navigation Controller.

Please make sure you have selected scene which contain Navigation Controller. Example image of scene.
