This code was already there, I probably would have used the init method if I had written it, but, as it happens it works out well, since iOS 7 doesn't use (so therefore it never calls the getter or the setter) wantsFullScreenLayout, I do not need to check the version in these methods, so it is better compatibility wise, although, I doubt it was planned! >> >>> Of course even if you build with the iOS 7 SDK and deploy to iOS 6, the >>> flag will be honored there as specified. >>> >> >> Ultimately we want to use some iOS 7 features so it needs to be fixed in iOS >> 7, I'm wondering how much of a change it will be and if it's worth rewriting >> it so will work on 5 6 and 7. > > > As noted, UIKit doesn’t look at the wantsFullScreenLayout property with > applications linked on the iOS 7 SDK, instead using edgesForExtendedLayout. > The default value of that property is the equivalent of > wantsFullScreenLayout=YES, and you should be able to set > edgesForExtendedLayout to RectEdgesNone to get a similar effect to NO. Yes, fixed it now, it's annoying that it is defaulted YES or that XCode 5/IB sets to YES. I had to go through 35+ VCs setting the RectEdgesNone flags to NO. IMO, the "good" thing to do would if loading a Storyboard/NIB generated by an older version of XCode, would be to default those items to NO. For new VCs being created, set it to YES.
