Change iOS 11 large title color

Question

I\'m using the new enlarged navigation bar titles in iOS 11. But I can\'t seem to be able to change the textColor.

I tried doing:

self.navigationCont         


        

Answer 1

iOS 11

Objective-C

if (@available(iOS 11.0, *)) {
    self.navigationController.navigationItem.largeTitleDisplayMode =  UINavigationItemLargeTitleDisplayModeAlways;
    self.navigationController.navigationBar.prefersLargeTitles = true;

// Change Color
    self.navigationController.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = @{NSForegroundColorAttributeName: [UIColor whiteColor]};

} else {
    // Fallback on earlier versions
}

Answer 2

Swift 4.2

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : UIColor.white]

with named color

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : UIColor(named: "Teal") ?? UIColor.black]

Answer 3

Swift up through Swift 3.2 (not Swift 4+)

        self.navigationController?.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.white]

Answer 4

self.navigationController.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = @{NSForegroundColorAttributeName: [UIColor whiteColor]}; 

Answer 5

I think it's still a bug in Xcode 9 beta 6.

I found different "solutions" for it:

1. It's possible to change the color of the title if you put this in the AppDelegate:

    if #available(iOS 11.0, *) {
      UINavigationBar.appearance().largeTitleTextAttributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.blue]
    }

2. Other way is to set the color in your Controller's viewDidLoad, but the secret to make it work is to set the font also:

    if #available(iOS 11.0, *) {            
      self.navigationController?.navigationBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.blue, NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 31, weight: UIFont.Weight.bold) ]
    }

Hope it helps you.

Regards!
