iPhone - How set uinavigationbar height?

Question

I want to make the top of the navigation view a bit smaller. How would you achieve this? This is what I\'ve tried so far, but as you can see, even though I make the navigati

Answer 1

I have found the following code to perform better on iPad (and iPhone):

- (CGSize)sizeThatFits:(CGSize)size
{
     return CGSizeMake(self.superview.bounds.size.width, 62.0f);
}

Answer 2

Using this navigation bar subclass I've successfully created a larger navigation bar on iOS 5.x to iOS 6.x on the iPad. This gives me a larger navigation bar but doesn't break all the animations.

static CGFloat const CustomNavigationBarHeight = 62;
static CGFloat const NavigationBarHeight = 44;
static CGFloat const CustomNavigationBarHeightDelta = CustomNavigationBarHeight - NavigationBarHeight;

@implementation HINavigationBar

- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
    self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
    if (self) {
//      UIColor *titleColor = [[HITheme currentTheme] fontColorForLabelForLocation:HIThemeLabelNavigationTitle];
//      UIFont *titleFont = [[HITheme currentTheme] fontForLabelForLocation:HIThemeLabelNavigationTitle];

//      [self setTitleTextAttributes:@{ UITextAttributeFont : titleFont, UITextAttributeTextColor : titleColor }];

        CGAffineTransform translate = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0, -CustomNavigationBarHeightDelta / 2.0);
        self.transform = translate;
        [self resetBackgroundImageFrame];

    }
    return self;
}

- (void)resetBackgroundImageFrame
{
    for (UIView *view in self.subviews) {
        if ([NSStringFromClass([view class]) rangeOfString:@"BarBackground"].length != 0) {
            view.frame = CGRectMake(0, CustomNavigationBarHeightDelta / 2.0, self.bounds.size.width, self.bounds.size.height);
        }
    }
}

- (void)setBackgroundImage:(UIImage *)backgroundImage forBarMetrics:(UIBarMetrics)barMetrics
{
    [super setBackgroundImage:backgroundImage forBarMetrics:barMetrics];
    [self resetBackgroundImageFrame];
}

- (CGSize)sizeThatFits:(CGSize)size
{
    size.width = self.frame.size.width;
    size.height = CustomNavigationBarHeight;
    return size;
}

- (void)setFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
    [super setFrame:frame];
    [self resetBackgroundImageFrame];
}

For swift

create a subclass of Uinavigation bar.

import UIKit

class higherNavBar: UINavigationBar {

override func sizeThatFits(size: CGSize) -> CGSize {
    var newSize:CGSize = CGSizeMake(self.frame.size.width, 87)
    return newSize
}

There will be two blank strips on both sides, I changed the width to the exact number to make it work.

However the title and back button are aligned to the bottom.
