UINavigationController within ViewController, gap at top of view

Question

I\'m working on a universal app, and I\'m trying to share as much code as possible between the iPhone and iPad versions. I need to use a TabBarController as my root view contro

Answer 1

I was able to brute force as follows. In viewDidLoad or loadView:

if (self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.origin.y > 0.0) {
    self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame = CGRectOffset(self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame, 0.0, -20.0);
}

And in viewDidAppear:

if (self.view.superview.frame.origin.y > 44.0) {
    UIView *container = self.view.superview;
    container.frame = CGRectMake(container.frame.origin.x, container.frame.origin.y - 20.0, container.frame.size.width, container.frame.size.height + 20.0);
}

It's ugly, but it seems to work.
