Yes! There is a way of using the backBarButton with a custom action.
No, it’s not by overriding the backBarButton property of navigationItem.
This is not an ugly solution with images that simulate the
“Back”-button (arrow-shaped.) It’s possible to use the backBarButton for
popping the current viewController as normal, but than with other
animations such as UIViewAnimationTransitionCurlDown.
Enough said, the solution is simple. You have to subclass your
navigationController’s popViewControllerAnimated:(BOOL)animated. So
create a custom navigationController:
customNavigationController.h
#import
@interface customNavigationController : UINavigationController {}
@end
And a custom “popViewControllerAnimated:(BOOL)animated”, this
popViewControllerAnimated-function uses the
“UIViewAnimationTransitionCurlDown” when popping from a
SettingsTableView.
customNavigationController.m
#import "customNavigationController.h"
#import "SettingsTableController.h"
@implementation customNavigationController
- (UIViewController *)popViewControllerAnimated:(BOOL)animated
{
if([[self.viewControllers lastObject] class] == [SettingsTableController class]){
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration: 1.00];
[UIView setAnimationTransition:UIViewAnimationTransitionCurlDown
forView:self.view cache:NO];
UIViewController *viewController = [super popViewControllerAnimated:NO];
[UIView commitAnimations];
return viewController;
} else {
return [super popViewControllerAnimated:animated];
}
}
@end
Use your custom navigationController in your appDelegate:
customNavigationController *navigationController =
[[customNavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:rootView];
