UITabBarController offsetting content at first sight

I'm having trouble with my UITabBarController in the sense that my first view of the first UIViewController is being offset about 20 pixels to the bottom. Whenever I tab around and/or return to the first view controller (same instance, not released), it's fine. It's only the first encounter.

My steps:

  1. I am allocating and initializing a UITabBarController
  2. I am allocating and initializing 3 instances of UIViewController
  3. I am setting the viewControllers property to an array of the above mentioned 3 items

My code:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Allocate and initialize view controllers
    self.debtsViewController = [[DebtsViewController alloc] init];
    self.debtsViewController.title = NSLocalizedString(@"Debts", nil);
    self.debtsViewController.tabBarController = self;
    self.conclusionsViewController = [[ConclusionsViewController alloc] init];
    self.conclusionsViewController.title = NSLocalizedString(@"Entries", nil);
    self.conclusionsViewController.tabBarController = self;
    self.settingsViewController = [[SettingsViewController alloc] init];
    self.settingsViewController.title = NSLocalizedString(@"Settings", nil);
    // Assign to tabBarController
    self.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:self.debtsViewController, self.conclusionsViewController, self.settingsViewController, nil];
}

Any ideas?

i solved this problem.

```

[tab setSelectedIndex:1];
[tab setSelectedIndex:0];

```

you can manually reset the offset by switch the tab bar after the tabbarcontroller initialized

Having a glance at your screenshot made me think, that actually you should have 3 UINavigationControllers inside the UITabBarViewController. Their navigationBars will be(almost) lookalike, but it will be 3 separate instances. What does 'Settings' have in common with 'Debts'? Why would they share same navigation?

The point of using UITabBarViewController is to have independent sections of the app. I strongly recommend you Apple's guide.
