iOS 7 UIRefreshControl tintColor not working for beginRefreshing

Question

I\'m trying to set a tintColor on my UIRefreshControl (building on iOS 7). I enabled refreshing for the tableViewController in storyboard, then in my ViewController vi

Answer 1

I am working with Xamarin C# (iOS 10) and found that a combination of all of these answers is what fixed it for me.

In my ViewDidLoad I have the following:

    RefreshControl = new UIRefreshControl();
    RefreshControl.TintColor = UIColor.White;
    RefreshControl.ValueChanged += OnRefresh;
    RefreshControl.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Clear;

And later I programmatically call the refresh animation in my ViewDidAppear with the following:

    BeginInvokeOnMainThread(() =>
    {
        UIView.Animate(0, 0.2, UIViewAnimationOptions.BeginFromCurrentState, () =>
        {
            TableView.SetContentOffset(new CGPoint(0, TableView.ContentOffset.Y - RefreshControl.Frame.Size.Height), true);
            RefreshControl.AttributedTitle = new NSAttributedString("");
        },
        () =>
        {
            RefreshControl.BeginRefreshing();
        });
    });

Note the setting of the attributed title and animation block were the parts I was missing for my RefreshControl to take my white tint color.

Thanks to all that have contributed to this question.
