In iOS 13 there is a new behaviour for modal view controller when being presented.
Now it's not fullscreen by default and when I try to slide down, the app just dismiss the View Controller automatically.
How can I prevent this behaviour and get back to the old fullscreen modal vc?
Thanks

All the other answers are sufficient but for a large project like ours and where navigations are being made both in code and storyboard, it is quite a daunting task.
For those who are actively using Storyboard. This is my advice: use Regex.
The following format is not good for full screen pages:
<segue destination="Bof-iQ-svK" kind="presentation" identifier="importSystem" modalPresentationStyle="fullScreen" id="bfy-FP-mlc"/>
The following format is good for full screen pages:
<segue destination="7DQ-Kj-yFD" kind="presentation" identifier="defaultLandingToSystemInfo" modalPresentationStyle="fullScreen" id="Mjn-t2-yxe"/>
The following regex compatible with VS CODE will convert all Old Style pages to new style pages. You may need to escape special chars if you're using other regex engines/text editors.
Search Regex
<segue destination="(.*)"\s* kind="show" identifier="(.*)" id="(.*)"/>
Replace Regex
<segue destination="$1" kind="presentation" identifier="$2" modalPresentationStyle="fullScreen" id="$3"/>
The above answers and suggestions are right, below is another version, and efficient way using programmatically.
#1 Created a UIView Extension
#2 Created a Method ()
//#1
extension UIViewController {
//#2
func presentLocal(_ viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController, animated flag:
Bool, completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
//Reusing below 2 lines :-)
viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
self.present(viewControllerToPresent, animated: flag, completion: completion)
}
}
Invoking as below
let vc = MyViewController()
let nc = UINavigationController(rootViewController: vc)
sourceView.presentLocal(nc, animated: true, completion: nil)
OR
let vc = MyViewController()
sourceView.presentLocal(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)
One Liner:
modalPresentationStyle
is required to be set on the navigationController which is being presented.
iOS 13 and below iOS version fullScreen with
overCurrentContext
andnavigationController
Tested Code
let controller = UIViewController()
let navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: controller)
navigationController.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
self.navigationController?.present(navigationController, animated: true, completion: nil)
modalPresentationStyle require to set at navigationController.
Here's my version of fix in ObjectiveC using Categories. With this approach you'll have default UIModalPresentationStyleFullScreen behaviour until another one explicitly set.
#import "UIViewController+Presentation.h"
#import "objc/runtime.h"
@implementation UIViewController (Presentation)
- (void)setModalPresentationStyle:(UIModalPresentationStyle)modalPresentationStyle {
[self setPrivateModalPresentationStyle:modalPresentationStyle];
}
-(UIModalPresentationStyle)modalPresentationStyle {
UIModalPresentationStyle style = [self privateModalPresentationStyle];
if (style == NSNotFound) {
return UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
}
return style;
}
- (void)setPrivateModalPresentationStyle:(UIModalPresentationStyle)modalPresentationStyle {
NSNumber *styleNumber = [NSNumber numberWithInteger:modalPresentationStyle];
objc_setAssociatedObject(self, @selector(privateModalPresentationStyle), styleNumber, OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC);
}
- (UIModalPresentationStyle)privateModalPresentationStyle {
NSNumber *styleNumber = objc_getAssociatedObject(self, @selector(privateModalPresentationStyle));
if (styleNumber == nil) {
return NSNotFound;
}
return styleNumber.integerValue;
}
@end
Here is the solution for Objective-C
UIStoryboard *storyBoard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:nil];
ViewController *vc = [storyBoard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ViewController"];
vc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:nil];
an alternative approach is to have your own base viewcontroller component in your app, and just implementing the designated and required initialisers with a basic setup, something like the following:
class MyBaseViewController: UIViewController {
//MARK: Initialisers
/// Alternative initializer which allows you to set the modal presentation syle
/// - Parameter modalStyle: the presentation style to be used
init(with modalStyle:UIModalPresentationStyle) {
super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
self.setup(modalStyle: modalStyle)
}
override init(nibName nibNameOrNil: String?, bundle nibBundleOrNil: Bundle?) {
super.init(nibName: nibNameOrNil, bundle: nibBundleOrNil)
// default modal presentation style as fullscreen
self.setup(modalStyle: .fullScreen)
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: coder)
// default modal presentation style as fullscreen
self.setup(modalStyle: .fullScreen)
}
//MARK: Private
/// Setup the view
///
/// - Parameter modalStyle: indicates which modal presentation style to be used
/// - Parameter modalPresentation: default true, it prevent modally presented view to be dismissible with the default swipe gesture
private func setup(modalStyle:UIModalPresentationStyle, modalPresentation:Bool = true){
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
self.modalPresentationStyle = modalStyle
self.isModalInPresentation = modalPresentation
}
}
NOTE: If your view controller is contained in a navigation controller which is actually presented modally, then the navigation controller should approach the problem in the same way (meaning, having your custom navigation controller component customised in the same way
Tested on Xcode 11.1 on iOS 13.1 and iOS 12.4
Hope it helps
Latest for iOS 13 and Swift 5.x
let vc = ViewController(nibName: "ViewController", bundle: nil)
vc.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
self.present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)
I achieved it by using method swizzling(Swift 4.2):
To create an UIViewController extension as follows
extension UIViewController {
@objc private func swizzled_presentstyle(_ viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController, animated: Bool, completion: (() -> Void)?) {
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
if viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle == .automatic || viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle == .pageSheet {
viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
}
}
self.swizzled_presentstyle(viewControllerToPresent, animated: animated, completion: completion)
}
static func setPresentationStyle_fullScreen() {
let instance: UIViewController = UIViewController()
let aClass: AnyClass! = object_getClass(instance)
let originalSelector = #selector(UIViewController.present(_:animated:completion:))
let swizzledSelector = #selector(UIViewController.swizzled_presentstyle(_:animated:completion:))
let originalMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(aClass, originalSelector)
let swizzledMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(aClass, swizzledSelector)
if let originalMethod = originalMethod, let swizzledMethod = swizzledMethod {
method_exchangeImplementations(originalMethod, swizzledMethod)
}
}
}
and in AppDelegate, in application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: invoke the swizzling code by calling:
UIViewController.setPresentationStyle_fullScreen()
This worked for me
let vc = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "storyboardID_cameraview1") as! CameraViewController
vc.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
self.present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)`
Change modalPresentationStyle
before presenting
vc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
Initially, the default value is fullscreen
for modalPresentationStyle, but in iOS 13 its changes to the UIModalPresentationStyle.automatic
.
If you want to make the full-screen view controller you have to change the modalPresentationStyle
to fullScreen
.
Refer UIModalPresentationStyle
apple documentation for more details and refer apple human interface guidelines for where should use which modality.
Quick solution. There are already really great answers above. I am also adding my quick 2 points input, which is presented in the screenshot.
If you are not using Navigation Controller
then from Right Menu Inspector
set the Presentation to Full Screen
If you are using Navigation Controller
then by default it will present full screen, you have to do nothing.
Here is an easy solution without coding a single line.
This change makes iPad app behavior as expected otherwise the new screen is displaying in the center of the screen as a popup.
The simplest solution that worked for me.
viewController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
If you are using a UINavigationController and embed a ViewController as a root view controller, then also you would rise up with same issue. Use following code to overcome.
let vc = UIViewController()
let navController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: vc)
navController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
You can easily do so
Open your storyboard as source code and search for kind="presentation"
, in all the seague tag with kind = presentation add a extra attribute modalPresentationStyle="fullScreen"
I used swizzling for ios 13
import Foundation
import UIKit
private func _swizzling(forClass: AnyClass, originalSelector: Selector, swizzledSelector: Selector) {
if let originalMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(forClass, originalSelector),
let swizzledMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(forClass, swizzledSelector) {
method_exchangeImplementations(originalMethod, swizzledMethod)
}
}
extension UIViewController {
static let preventPageSheetPresentation: Void = {
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
_swizzling(forClass: UIViewController.self,
originalSelector: #selector(present(_: animated: completion:)),
swizzledSelector: #selector(_swizzledPresent(_: animated: completion:)))
}
}()
@available(iOS 13.0, *)
@objc private func _swizzledPresent(_ viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController,
animated flag: Bool,
completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
if viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle == .pageSheet
|| viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle == .automatic {
viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
}
_swizzledPresent(viewControllerToPresent, animated: flag, completion: completion)
}
}
then put this
UIViewController.preventPageSheetPresentation
somewhere
for example in AppDelegate
func application(_ application: UIApplication,
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]?) -> Bool {
UIViewController.preventPageSheetPresentation
// ...
return true
}
class MyViewController: UIViewController {
convenience init() {
self.init(nibName:nil, bundle:nil)
self.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
}
Rather than call self.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
for every view controller, you can subclass UIViewController and just use MyViewController
everywhere.
As a hint: If you call present to a ViewController
which is embedded inside a NavigationController
you have to set the NavigationController
to .fullScreen
and not the VC.
You can do this like @davidbates or you do it programmatically (like @pascalbros).
The same applies to the UITabViewController
An example scenario for NavigationController
:
//BaseNavigationController: UINavigationController {}
let baseNavigationController = storyboard!.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "BaseNavigationController")
var navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: baseNavigationController)
navigationController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
navigationController.topViewController as? LoginViewController
self.present(navigationViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
There are multiple ways to do that, and I think each one could fit for one project but not another, so I thought I'll keep them here maybe someone else will run to a different case.
If you have a BaseViewController
you can override the present(_ viewControllerToPresent: animated flag: completion:)
method.
class BaseViewController: UIViewController {
// ....
override func present(_ viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController,
animated flag: Bool,
completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
super.present(viewControllerToPresent, animated: flag, completion: completion)
}
// ....
}
Using this way you don't need to do any change on any present
call, as we just overrode the present
method.
extension UIViewController {
func presentInFullScreen(_ viewController: UIViewController,
animated: Bool,
completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
viewController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
present(viewController, animated: animated, completion: completion)
}
}
Usage:
presentInFullScreen(viewController, animated: true)
let viewController = UIViewController()
viewController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
present(viewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
Select a segue and set the presentation to FullScreen
.
extension UIViewController {
static func swizzlePresent() {
let orginalSelector = #selector(present(_: animated: completion:))
let swizzledSelector = #selector(swizzledPresent)
guard let orginalMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(self, orginalSelector), let swizzledMethod = class_getInstanceMethod(self, swizzledSelector) else{return}
let didAddMethod = class_addMethod(self,
orginalSelector,
method_getImplementation(swizzledMethod),
method_getTypeEncoding(swizzledMethod))
if didAddMethod {
class_replaceMethod(self,
swizzledSelector,
method_getImplementation(orginalMethod),
method_getTypeEncoding(orginalMethod))
} else {
method_exchangeImplementations(orginalMethod, swizzledMethod)
}
}
@objc
private func swizzledPresent(_ viewControllerToPresent: UIViewController,
animated flag: Bool,
completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
if viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle == .automatic {
viewControllerToPresent.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen
}
}
swizzledPresent(viewControllerToPresent, animated: flag, completion: completion)
}
}
Usage:
In your AppDelegate
inside application(_ application: didFinishLaunchingWithOptions)
add this line:
UIViewController.swizzlePresent()
Using this way you don't need to do any change on any present call, as we are replacing the present method implementation in runtime.
If you need to know what is swizzling you can check this link:
https://nshipster.com/swift-objc-runtime/
let Obj = MtViewController()
Obj.modalPresentationStyle = .overFullScreen
self.present(Obj, animated: true, completion: nil)
// if you want to disable swipe to dismiss on it, add line
Obj.isModalInPresentation = true
Check Apple Document for More info.
This worked for me:
yourViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.fullScreen
I had this problem with a video not presenting fullscreen anymore. Added this line, which saved the day :-)
videoController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
Create a category for UIViewController (say UIViewController+PresentationStyle). Add the following code to it.
-(UIModalPresentationStyle)modalPresentationStyle{
return UIModalPresentationStyleFullScreen;
}
For Objective-C users
Just Use this code
[vc setModalPresentationStyle: UIModalPresentationFullScreen];
Or if you want to add it particular in iOS 13.0 then use
if (@available(iOS 13.0, *)) {
[vc setModalPresentationStyle: UIModalPresentationFullScreen];
} else {
// Fallback on earlier versions
}
