    <p>It's possible to directly manipulate the view controller stack, independently of the application's segues or storyboards.</p> <p>You can use this technique to restore a deep stack of view controllers, and perform / animate just a single segue to the top view controller. (You will likely need to create a specific push segue for this purpose.)</p> <p>For example, to restore a two view controller stack, you could do the following. In this example, it's assumed that some action on an existing view controller leads to the state restore, but you can just as easily perform it from your App Delegate.</p> <pre><code>[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"Page2Express" sender:self]; - (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender { if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"Page2Express"]) { // Get any state data you need to from Core Data CoreDataType *valuePulledFromCoreData = // ... // Set up the page 2 view controller as you normally would Page2ViewController *page2ViewController = segue.destinationViewController; page2ViewController.instanceVariable = valuePulledFromCoreData; // Create a loose, page 1 view controller and set it up as required UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard_iPhone" bundle:nil]; Page1ViewController *page1ViewController = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"Page1ViewController"]; // Ensure you have this identifier set up in your storyboard page1ViewController.instanceVariable = valuePulledFromCoreData; // Add the page 1 view controller to the top of the navigation stack (to be later obscured in the segue by the page 2 view controller) NSMutableArray *viewControllers = [[self navigationController].viewControllers mutableCopy]; [viewControllers addObject:page1ViewController]; [self navigationController].viewControllers = viewControllers; } } </code></pre> <p>If, instead, you prefer to have no animations, then it's easier still. You can restore state solely by manipulating the view controller stack (and without using any segues) from <code>- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions</code> and <code>- (void)applicationWillEnterForeground:(UIApplication *)application</code>.</p> <p>Either way will work seamlessly and in tandem with your existing storyboard(s) and segues.</p>

    1. COJust out of interest, is there a reason you manipulate the `viewControllers` array rather than using `pushViewController:animated:` ?

    2. CO`pushViewController:animated:` doesn't only add a view controller to the stack - it also refreshes the view to show that view controller. In this case, we don't want to see the `page1ViewController`, even briefly, so we have to add it to the stack directly ourselves.

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.
