C # PresentViewController for storyboard view manager

I am building my first Xamarin (C #) application on iOS and I am having problems navigating the storyboard. All my dashboards, navigation and browsing are in the storyboard. In almost every view controller, I added a menu (Facebook and YouTube style) that slides to the side. From there, it should be possible to return to the first viewcontroller (home) in the storyboard. Since menus are active in almost every controller in my application, I do not use segues (this would be a mess in my storyboard).

So I would like to use PresentViewController (), but when I do this, the page turns black and shows nothing.

homeViewController home = new homeViewController();
PresentViewController(home, true, null);

Does it turn black because PresentViewController expects an XIB file from homeViewController? I want the user to stay in the storyboard, so he can continue by going through my application.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Have you created an empty constructor yourself? If so, then do not download the information from the storyboard, therefore it is black.

To create a controller, call this:

var controller = Storyboard.InstantiateViewController("HomeViewController") as UIViewController;

You will also need to open the controller in Xcode and set its "Storyboard ID" to "HomeViewController". This is the second tab on the left (I think) in the details pane. The same tab on which you change the class.
