UIAlertContoller ios8 present in UIWindow

I have an app where when i tap on item in tableview on screen opens fullscreen photo presentation.

It is fullscreen so i add it directly to main window [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:0] over my viewcontroller.

I have a menu for each image, it opens when i tap on UIBarButton that presents with image. i open my UIActionSheet(self.imageActionSheet) with code [self.imageActionSheet showFromBarButtonItem:sendButtonItem animated:YES];

It works awesome on ios7, but on ios8 on iPad it doesn't opens.

I found that in ios8 ActionSheet is deprecated, and i should use UIAlertController.

I made a test alertcontroller for it

            UIAlertController * actionSheet = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"" message:@"" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet];

            [actionSheet addAction:[UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {

            }]];

            UIPopoverPresentationController *popover = actionSheet.popoverPresentationController;
            if (popover)
            {
                UIView *buttonView = [sendButtonItem valueForKey:@"view"];
                popover.sourceView = buttonView;
                popover.sourceRect = buttonView.bounds;
                popover.permittedArrowDirections = UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny;
            }
            UIWindow * wind = [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:0];

            [wind.rootViewController presentViewController:actionSheet animated:YES completion:nil];

It shows, but it shows under my fullscreen view that contained in [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:0] like subview. It contained at keyWindow because i need overlap all interface.

I found a way only present UIAlertController via ViewContoller, but all my viewControllers under my fullscreen view.

How i can show UIAlertController at UIWindow? or maybe from UIBarButtonItem?

You can create your own UIWindow and put whatever you want in it, and it will be above everything including the status bar. I don't have a handy like to an example but you can find them. Look for examples of building your own UIAlertViewController. I used this at a previous job to build an alert that could have any number of items in it.

Please try like this..

AppDelegate* appDelegate = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
        UIViewController* topVC = appDelegate.navC.topViewController;
        if (topVC.presentedViewController)
            topVC = topVC.presentedViewController;
        [topVC presentViewController:alertViewController animated:NO completion:nil];
