Hide an UITabBar when Orientation change

Question

I have a quite simple question but the answer is not so easy. I want to hide a UITabBar when my orientation change. I looked 2 ways : Frame way ``` myAppDelegate.tabBarController.tabBar.frame = CGRectMake(<>); ``` Works fine but I have a blank area, so tried to play with tabBarController.view.frame et myViewController.view.frame but I didn't get any good result. Navigation Controller Way ``` myOtherVC.hideTabBarWhenPushed = YES; [self.navigationController pushViewController:myOtherVC animated:NO]; ``` Works but isn't a good solution for my app Update: ``` [appDelegate.tabBarController.view removeFromSuperview]; [self.view removeFromSuperview]; [appDelegate.window addSubview:self.view]; self.view.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,480,320); ``` Works fine but doesn't autorotate anymore (and of course, I didn't change the shouldAutorotate and it always returns YES) How can I hidde my tabBar and make the current view taking its space ? Thanks

Accepted Answer

You can use the current solution combined with:

```
[[UIDevice currentDevice] beginGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(didRotate:) name:@"UIDeviceOrientationDidChangeNotification" object:nil];
```

to detect rotation. (I think that you combine this with view.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation to make it rotate...?)
