UISplitViewController always show master view in iPad portrait mode iOS 9
<p>I'm building a universal app using UISplitViewController and targeting iOS 9 and above. The app language is Objective-C.</p>

<p>Having started with the Xcode Master/Detail template and set up my views in the standard way, I'm realising that the app will be better if I keep the master view on screen at all times (on iPad), including when the device is in portrait mode. However, no matter how hard I search, I can't find anything to help me learn how this is achieved. I know this was previously achieved using splitViewController:shouldHideViewController:inOrientation:</p>

<p>However, this method is deprecated in iOS 9 and I can't figure out what replaces it and why. I've looked at the new delegate methods for UISplitViewController and find them completely lacking in any level of intuitiveness.</p>

<p>I'd really appreciate some pointers in regard to what replaces splitViewController:shouldHideViewController:inOrientation: and how it can be used to keep the master view displayed at all times on the iPad.</p>
