I have just started working with swift, i have created a subview which has a button on it, i would like to use that button to take me to my mainviewcontroller.
i have used same functionality for a different button however having a function in same file allows that button to work the code is below
var playAgainButton = UIButton(frame: CGRectMake(0, 150, 320, 40))
playAgainButton.setTitle("Play Again", forState: UIControlState.Normal)
playAgainButton.addTarget(self, action: Selector("startGame"), forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
playAgainButton.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
gameOver.addSubview(playAgainButton)
is it possible to use similar code to navigate to a different viewcontroller?
Thanks
Are you using storyboards, or is this all in code? If it's in code, create a method like
func goToMainVC() {
if let navController = self.navigationController {
navController.popToRootViewControllerAnimated(true)
}
}
and set the button's target to a selector that calls it.
If you're using storyboards, you have three options:
@IBAction
before the fun goToMainVC()
method above, then ctrl+drag a connection from your button to the view controller in which it's contained, and then select that outlet method (this is how most people would do it); or
