Place UIToolBar above UISplitViewController?

I'd like to place a UIToolBar above a UISplitViewController but Interface Builder will not let me do so (us开发者_如何学编程ing the standard split view template as a start). I know I can implement different tool bars in each of the two views within the UISplitViewController, but I want one seamless bar that lies outside the frame/bounds of the controller, directly above it and right under the status bar. Please help.

Thanks.

This is not supported by the UISplitViewController. If you need this sort of UI you would typically create a custom setup to achieve this.

I'd construct a setup using two UINavigationControllers that are controlled using my App Delegate and just take it from there. There will be some extra work for you, handling rotation, but that's to be expected when doing custom stuff.

This shouldn't be too hard.
