I am "presenting" a view controller (*modaly*) on an iPhone and I'd like to hide the status bar while the *modal* view controller is visible. I've implemented prefersStatusBarHidden on the presented view controller and indeed, the status bar is hidden when the modal view controller is presented - but, the *presenting* view controller, which correctly shows the status bar, jerks and also hides the status bar on its own view while transitioning to the modal view controller (default bottom up transition).
When I dismiss the modal view controller (default down transition) the presenting view controller correctly appears underneath with the status bar showing. I find the jerkiness annoying and unexpected - I think the presenting view controller should sit still. prefersStatusBarHidden is implemented to return true on the presented view controller, not the presenting view controller. Before I file a radar, anyone have a guess as to whether this is a bug or expected behavior? In the meantime, any thoughts on a elegant work around? Manual attempts to animate the status bar away in the completion block of presentViewController method aren't really continuous or smooth with respect to the presenting animation. Thanks, -Luther PS: the 2 view controllers mentioned are contained within UINavigationControllers ... if that makes a difference. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
