Hide bottom bar on demand

Question

I have a UINavigationController inside a UITabBarController. I'm presenting a sort of popover view using a semi-transparent UIView, but am not calling presentModalViewController or any of the usual methods. I know about hidesBottomBarWhenPushed, but is there a way I can hide the bottom bar (or even betterm slide it out) on demand (just before my subView is added to the navigationController's top view)?

Have you tried setting this property?

navigationController.toolbarHidden = YES;

Or with animation:

[navigationController setToolbarHidden:YES animated:YES];

Excellent. I thought UIToolbars were generally placed at the top but this seems to work. Thanks. – Echilon Jan 23 '12 at 19:03

This hides and shows a bottom toolbar, but does not affect the tab bar. So, according to me it doesn't answer the question. – Kris Van Bael Jul 21 '12 at 11:30
`navigationController?.isToolbarHidden = true` – Rachit Mishra Aug 23 '18 at 20:57
