[MonoTouch] Mono.Dialog in same view.

[Mittchel Van Vliet]

Dear,

Recently I started out working with MonoTouch. My navigation bar and tabbar
are finally setup correctly so I can add some other views now.
What my application needs is a Navigation Controller and TabbarController.
My Tabbar should be available in the entire application, the navigation for
that mather only when needed.
I made the navigation controller as my rootviewcontroller and pushed my
tabbarcontroller with: navigation.PushViewController(tabC, false);

Now what I want to archieve is that the first screen loaded in the tabbar
(HomeScreen) shows some information regarding the application.
An example of what I mean with this can be found here:

As you can see I need the white table cell to put some text information in,
I tried this out with MonoTouch.Dialog  and the screen displays the
Multiline correctly.

*Problem:*
I'm following the MonoTouch Dialog examples but it gets me stuck to be
honest. Because when I start the application the tabC will be pushed, and
after that the Multiline will be pushed. So he creates a entirely new view
controller for my Multiline, but I want it to stay in the HomeScreen so that
the first screen will be the MonoTouch.Dialog screen. In the screenshot
below you can see what happends when I run the application.

I want the TableView box on the first page here:

But when I run the application I get this:

So  I want that as my main screen and remove the navigation bar(because its
the first screen). Plus is there also a possiblity to modify the text inside
the Multiline box? I don't really want that bold text just regular black
info text.

I hope someone takes the effort to help a beginner out here, I would really
appreciate it!

Thanks,
