The controller won't have a way to specify the style of the uitableview, but the actual instantiated uitableview in the XIB will however ... select the uitableview from the list view of the xib contents and you can select it's style in the inspector.

In IB if you don't specify that the table view controller that is the root view controller of a navigation controller has its own nib file, there is no access to the actual table view in IB, so no way there to specify the table style. (The inspector window for a table view controller has no setting to specify the style.) Hitting the disclosure triangle for the custom table view controller in the main window nib file in that case only shows the Navigation Item - it doesn't show the table view. To access the controller's table view you have to have a separate nib file for the table view controller and tell the main window nib in the Attributes Inspector to load from this other nib.
