swift - Is Initial View Controller does work? -

i have viewcontroller , tab bar controller. want change view controller initial view controller , create segue show tab bar controller.

i have tried set new initial view controller. there 2 ways. first, check tick box "is initial view controller". second, drag arrow new screen. not show error, shows tab bar controller usual , can't find view controller either.

anyone know how going on. please tell me fix. thanks

you need use uinavigationviewcontroller , connect in hierarchy in similar fashion to:

the leftmost view "view" mention, needs show uitabviewcontroller.

i've added button ease of use.

the next along (send left) uinavigationviewcontroller. no settings on here need set etc... it's pretty "plug , play" put it.

the next view (third left) uitabviewcontroller (with corresponding views it's immediate right).

the connection between uinavigationviewcontroller , uitabviewcontroller "rootviewcontroller" tab view "root view controller" e.g. primary view controller.

the segue between first view, , navigation view controller merely "show" segue. liked directly between button , navigation controller in xcode.

hope mash-up helps!
