    <p>You are correct that it is the UISearchDisplayController that is managing the "dimming" effect that you're seeing. </p> <p>What the UISearchDisplayController is doing is adding a UIControl as a subview to the view of the searchContentsController (a property of UISearchDisplayController), which is likely your detail-view controller. This UIControl is just an alpha'd view with a gray background. It seems to have a touch-up-inside event handler that ends searching when tapped.</p> <p>To constrain the dimming effect to your sub-view of the detail-view, you need to do three things. (I'm assuming your detail-view-controller is defined via a xib. If not, these steps can be done in code too.)</p> <p>1) add a new UIViewController to your detail-view-controller xib. Attach this new view-controller to an IBOutlet of your detail-view-controller. In my example I call this "_searchAreaViewController". This is important, even if you wont ever access the view controller (but remember, you'll have to release it at some point)</p> <pre><code>@interface DetailViewController : UIViewController &lt;UIPopoverControllerDelegate, UISplitViewControllerDelegate, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource&gt; { UIPopoverController *popoverController; UIToolbar *toolbar; id detailItem; UILabel *detailDescriptionLabel; IBOutlet UIViewController* _searchAreaViewController; } </code></pre> <p>2) make the containing view for your search area the view of this new view-controller. To do this, use Interface Builder to set a new referencing outlet for this view by dragging the outlet to the searchAreaViewController and selecting the "view" outlet. You must have a containing view - it should be a subview of your detail-view, and it should contain the UISearchBar and likely your UITableView.</p> <p>3) make the searchContentsController property of the UISearchDisplayController refer to this new view controller instead of the detail-view-controller. This can only be done via Interface Builder as the property is read-only (IB has some magic to make this work?) If you need to do this step via code you'll have to subclass the UISearchDisplayController and return the correct value from a property override of "searchContentsController".</p> <p>I made a sample app to demonstrate this and the only line of code I had to add to the SplitView template was the one listed in step 1 above. Everything else was just adding the views/controllers and connecting them properly in IB.</p> <p>good luck!</p>

    1. COAfter doing that, the area still dims... My only doubt is on step number 2. When linking the view to the view controller, it becames an outlet for both the detail view controller and the searchAreaViewController. Is that correct? If I remove the reference to the detail view controller, the app crashes on startup.

    2. CONo, it should only be the view for the new "searchAreaViewController". This view needs to be a subview of the DetailViewController's view. Is that what you have?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
