Dismiss pushed view from within Navigation Controller

Question

I have a Navigation Controller with a View Controller displaying a button. The button is linked to another View Controller using a push segue which automatically adds a top navi

Answer 1

In Swift it would be calling the method

self.navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)

Answer 2

Obtain a reference to your UINavigationController and call

- (UIViewController *)popViewControllerAnimated:(BOOL)animated

on it.

Answer 3

In swift you can also call:

self.navigationController?.popToRootViewControllerAnimated(true)

Answer 4

If NavViewController is used with UIModalPresentationFullScreen then the below line will work

self.navigationController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)

Answer 5

If we use push segue, then use popViewController

@IBAction func backButtonClicked(_ sender: Any) {
    self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: false)
}

Answer 6

On Objective-C is

[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];

for a jump to the first root controller

[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];

or is a possible move to the specific controller

[self.navigationController popToViewController:(nonnull UIViewController *) animated:(BOOL)];

animation specific animation process of move the controller. If the animation is false the controller will appear without animations. The UIViewController must be from one which is on the stack.
