HELP Please! cannot open center when center is a tabbar controller.

[anguskwan]

class AppDelegate < PM::Delegate

  include GlobalStyle

  def on_load(app, options)
    set_navigationbar_style
    open_home
  end

  def open_home
    @menu = open MenuDrawer 
  end

  def show_menu
    puts "show menu clicked"
    @menu.show :left
  end

end

class MenuDrawer < PM::Menu::Drawer

  def setup
    self.center = HomeScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
    self.left = MenuScreen
    self.to_show = [:pan_bezel, :pan_nav_bar]
    self.max_left_width = 250
    self.shadow = true
  end

end

class HomeScreen < PM::Screen

  title "Home"

  attr_accessor :share_screen, :nearby_screen, :post_screen, :health_screen, :my_screen

  def on_load
    @share_screen = ShareScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
    @nearby_screen = NearbyScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
    @post_screen = PostScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
    @health_screen = HealthScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
    @my_screen = MyScreen.new(nav_bar: true)

    @tabbar_controller = open_tab_bar([@share_screen, @nearby_screen, @post_screen, @health_screen, @my_screen])
    @tabbar_controller.delegate = self
  end

class ShareScreen < PM::Screen

  include GlobalStyle

  title "GouBGouM"
  tab_bar_item item: { selected: "share_tab".uiimage, unselected: "share_tab_unselected".uiimage }, title: "首页"

  def on_load
    init_ui
  end

  def init_ui
    self.view.backgroundColor = :white.uicolor
    set_navigationbar_style
    set_navigationbar_button
  end


end

when i clicked left button on navigation bar, it just not show the left drawer..

if i replace the Center Controller with a screen without tabbar, it will show as expected.

@anguskwan I'm looking into it. Did you get an exception or did it just silently fail?

[Ryan Linton]

@anguskwan Unfortunately it appears the underlying cocoapod we use doesn't support container view controllers other than UINavigationController as the center view controller. There's an open issue that describes a hacky work around but it doesn't look like they'll be supporting UITabBarController any time soon.

@jamonholmgren @macfanatic Any ideas for potential workarounds?

[Jamon Holmgren]

Unfortunately, no. :-/ You might have to use a third party tab bar controller like RDVTabBarController or M13InfiniteTabBar and embed them in a nav bar.

@ryanlntn it just keep siliently.
@jamonholmgren i am going to have to try. i used a custom tabbar, add it to nav bar controller, and view added below tabbar, maybe it will work.

thanks guys.

@anguskwan Let us know if it does so we can add it to the README. I'm closing this for now.
