storyboard and programic modal changes

Question

starting a new project and want to try using the storyboard feature of xcode 4.2. i got the basics of how to do transitions within the story board, but how do i do it in the code (load a new view w/out the use of a button)?

do i just use the old method,

mapViewController *mapView = [[mapViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"mapViewController" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]]; 
[self presentModalViewController:mapView animated:YES];

?

EDIT:

the old way doesn't work. also tried:

MapViewController *mapView = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"MapView"];
self presentModalViewController:mapView animated:YES];

with no success.

haven't tried yet. i'll give it a whirl. i was just wondering if there is a new way to do it. — Padin215, Nov 09 '11 at 18:31

If you want to load a view controller you made in a storyboard create a segue to this view controller, give it an identifier and call: performSegueWithIdentifier:sender:.

ok, i figured out the issue. i had uncommented the method "loadView" in the mapViewController so xcode did not use my storyboard layout.

also, both above methods do work to do a modal switch.
