uisplitviewcontroller - iOS switch rootViewController not working -

i have login view checks see if there default settings, syncs data. if there no default settings, view waits user login. if there settings , data syncs correctly, should switch split view.

the code works if user enters login information. syncs data, switches view. if user logged in, hits function , doesnt switch view.

here code being called both paths:

-(void)redirect{     nslog(@"redirect@");     uisplitviewcontroller *split = [self.storyboard instantiateviewcontrollerwithidentifier:@"orders_split"];     [self.view.window setrootviewcontroller:split]; } 

"redirect@" shows in log on initial load if user has logged in once. have confirmed there no sync errors, hits function not perform switch.

i moving standard view nav controller splitview, cannot use manual segue trigger.

try use app delegate:

uisplitviewcontroller *split = [self.storyboard instantiateviewcontrollerwithidentifier:@"orders_split"]; myappdelegate *appdelegate = (myappdelegate *)[[uiapplication sharedapplication] delegate]; appdelegate.window.rootviewcontroller = split; 

in projects animation:

+(void)setrootcontroller:(uiviewcontroller*)controller               storyboard:(uistoryboard*)storyboard{              myappdelegate *appdelegate = (myappdelegate *)[[uiapplication sharedapplication] delegate];              [uiview              transitionwithview:appdelegate.window              duration:0.5              options:uiviewanimationoptiontransitioncrossdissolve              animations:^(void) {                  bool oldstate = [uiview areanimationsenabled];                   [uiview setanimationsenabled:no];                   appdelegate.window.rootviewcontroller = controller;                   [uiview setanimationsenabled:oldstate];              }              completion:nil]; }
