Ios – Unwind Segue in Xcode 6.1.1 with storyboard

iosxcodexcode6

I have been reading that unwind segue's are bugged in Xcode 6. I am using Xcode 6.1.1 and I use swift.

I use the "Back" button that is put by the navigation controller. Thus I can't cntrl drag to the exit icon. Moreover I can't drag from viewController icon to exit icon either.

Is this a bug? Or else I am missing some fundamental knowledge about how to use unwind segue. How can I set unwind segues from the storyboard?

Best Answer

I want to provide a detailed answer:

To perform an unwind segue, go to the view controller that you want to segue to and add the following function; (the name can change of course)

@IBAction func unwindToMainMenu(segue: UIStoryboardSegue) {

}

Once you add this function, you will be able to see this unwind function from any view controller on your storyboard. Just right click on the exit icon on the top of any view controller.exit icon right click

If you want to perform unwind with a button, then you can cntrl + drag from the button to exit icon and choose your unwindSegue function. Done!

Unwind with Button

If you want to perform unwind programmatically, then cntrl + drag from the viewController icon to the exit icon and choose the unwind function.

Afterwards, open the Document Outline and click on the unwind segue.

Go to Attributes Inspector inside Utilities and give an identifier to your unwind segue.

Lastly, call the performSegueWithIdentifier function like the following;

self.performSegueWithIdentifier("goToMainMenu", sender: self)

Hope that helps!
