UIBarButtonItem is blue instead of image

Question

Here is what I have in my viewDidLoad method:

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.backIndicatorImage = UIImage(named: \"back\")
self.navigationControlle         


        

Answer 1

You can use renderingMode for your custom image with AlwaysOriginal mode. See below code for solved it.

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.backIndicatorImage = UIImage(named: "back")?.imageWithRenderingMode(.AlwaysOriginal)
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.backIndicatorTransitionMaskImage = UIImage(named: "back")?.imageWithRenderingMode(.AlwaysOriginal)

Hope that helps!

Answer 2

Quickest solution

.navigationController?.navigationBar.tintColor = UIColor.redColor()

Or you can create custom barButton item, with custom view

Answer 3

Set the tintColor property of the barbuttonItem.

self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem.tintColor = "any color"
