I am trying to fill the status bar background color to orange using the following
UINavigationBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.orangeColor() UINavigation
Add this code in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in AppDelegate
let view = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.width, height: 20.0)) view.backgroundColor=UIColor.orangeColor() self.window.rootViewController.view.addSubview(view)
Hope it helps you....!!!
