Using MGSplitViewController inside UITabBar

[ghulammustafa]

I know that MGSplitViewController is not being maintained, but i'm posting this here anyways hoping that someone will stumble upon this and might share his experience and possibly a solution.

My objective is basically to use UISplitViewController inside a UITabBar. UISplitViewController doesn't work well inside a UITabBar. Specifically, UISplitViewController splits apart when device orientation changes. Anyways...

Since UISplitViewController didn't work for me, i turned to MGSplitViewController. And now it seems that it's not a workable solution to be used with UITabBar either. Im running into all sorts of problems. Mainly the following:

I have a tab-bar with 3-4 tabs. Each one contains a MGSplitViewController. In general, the MGSplitViewController contains a Master (UINavigationController) and a Detail (UIViewController). When i rotate the device, the content inside the visible UITableView area is misaligned/disturbed. Scrolling the UITableView to show new cells fixes the misalignment. The Master also has a Navigation bar and a search bar on top of the UITableView, and orientation change doesn't affect them. I'm not getting this issue with UISplitViewController. Any solutions, suggestions, pointers?

I ended up using IntelligentSplitViewController https://github.com/grgcombs/IntelligentSplitViewController. This should solve your problem.
