My view controller presenting the modal view controller has the top element with a top spacing of 20. After dismissing the modal view using the drag down gesture, the top spacing seems to be gone. And it looks to be gone not only for the base view controller in that tab (I am also using a tab bar controller), but it's also gone for other view controllers in the tab bar controller. Let me know if you want screenshots.
