ModalTransitionStyle horizontal cover

In my iPhone app I'm using several modal views. When I present a new viewcontroller I always use one of the transition animations

(UIModalTransitionStylePartialCurl,UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal
UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical,UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve)

What I am looking for would be called UIModalTransitionStyleCoverHorizontal, but there's no such thing. However in a lot of applications (both ios and 3rd party) I see this horizontal covering transition.

Does anybody know how this can be achieved?

I answer my question too. What @Max Justicz said is one way to do it. The other way is to have it done in a UINavigationController.

You create the UIViewController where you want to navigate from:

UIViewController* controller1 = [[UINavigationController alloc]init];

Also create a UINavigationController and init it with the controller

UINavigationController* controllerNVC = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController: controller1];

Then in "controller's .m" file when you want to navigate, do it like this.

UIViewController* controller2 = [[UINavigationController alloc]init];
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:controller2 animated:YES];

this will push a controller2 onto controller1.

When you want to go back from controller2 just call this:

[[self navigationController]popViewControllerAnimated:YES];

This way you can have a horizontalcover animated way to navigate between views

This should answer your question. It's a bit of a hack, but basically by placing the view you're transitioning to out of the current view frame you can have more control over the animation.

Hope this helps!
