POHow to clear or resetting UINavigation history?
text
Body
copied!<p>I have a game setup screen which uses UINavigation and am trying to reset or clear the UINavigation once a person has selected a color.</p> <p>My app's current process can be best described in the following diagram:</p> <pre><code>Start application -> New game -> Pick character -> Pick Color -> Start game </code></pre> <p>Up until "Pick Color" I use the UINavigation, however when a color is picked I want to clear the UINavigation history.</p> <p>The reason for doing this is so that you can't go back once you've started the game and want the UINavigation to with a clean slate with no indication that you can go back (and this also includes going back to the <code>main menu</code> screen).</p> <p>The way I am doing it right now is thusly;</p> <pre><code>[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES]; GameDashboardVC *dashboard = [[GameDashboardVC alloc] initWithNibName:@"GameDashboardVC" bundle:nil]; dashboard.title = @"Dashboard"; dashboard.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext; [self.navigationController pushViewController:dashboard animated:YES]; [dashboard release]; </code></pre> <p>The problem is that it pops to the rootViewController but it never pushes the dashboard onto the stack.</p> <p>I've tried:</p> <pre><code>[self.parentViewController.navigationController pushViewController....] </code></pre> <p>The only thing I haven't tried is putting my dashboard push inside the root view controller itself, but I am concerned because I am not sure if it should even be there.</p> <p>Therefore, where is the correct place to put this kind of functionality, and how do I clear the UINavigation's stack.</p> <p>Thank you for your time/help.</p>
