A:
If there isn't, you can define a property for this (presentedAsModal) in your UIViewController subclass and set it to YES before presenting the ViewController as a modal view.
childVC.presentedAsModal = YES;
[parentVC presentModalViewController:childVC animated:YES];
You can check this value in your viewWillAppear override.
I believe there isn't an official property that states how the view is presented, but nothing prevents you from creating your own.

This should work.
if(self.parentViewController.modalViewController == self)…

Unfortunately this does not work. It was my first try. But returned modalViewController ins nil :(.

If you just get 'self.parentViewController' does it return the correct parent object?

The problem might be that your UIViewController subclass is inside a UINavigationController or a UITabBarController (or both), in which case you might need to dig a bit more in the view hierarchy to find out the parent that was presented as a modal view controller.

A hack like this might work.
UIViewController* child = self;
UIViewController* parent = child.parentViewController;
while (parent && parent.modalViewController != child) {
child = parent;
parent = child.parentViewController;
}
if (parent) {
// A view controller in the hierarchy was presented as a modal view controller
}
However, I think my previous answer is a cleaner solution.
