Adjusting navigationItem.titleView's frame?

Question

I noticed that the titleView\'s position depends on the rightbarbutton title. How can I set the frame of the titleView to be in the center instead?

I\'ve tried setting

Only way I found to Fix this is to not use UINavigationItems. Insted use two different views on eace button side of the UINavigationBar like so:

-(UIView *)rightButtonViewSection {
    if (!_rightButtonViewSection) {

        _rightButtonViewSection = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 80, 45)];

    }
    return _rightButtonViewSection;

}

-(UIView *)leftButtonViewSection {
    if (!_leftButtonViewSection) {

        _leftButtonViewSection = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 80, 45)];

    }
    return _leftButtonViewSection;

}

and setButtons on it like so:

 ButtonBase *searchButton = [[ButtonBase alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 32, 30)];
    [searchButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:SEARCH_IMAGE] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    SEL searchSelector = @selector(tradersSearchButtonPress);
    [searchButton addTarget:self action:searchSelector forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

    self.notificationButton.view.frame = [self rightButtonFrame];
    searchButton.frame = [self rightSecoundButtonFrame];

    [self.rightButtonViewSection removeAllSubviews];
    [self.rightButtonViewSection addSubview:self.notificationButton.view];
    [self.rightButtonViewSection addSubview:searchButton];

    UIBarButtonItem *buttonItem  = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:self.rightButtonViewSection];
    self.topViewController.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = buttonItem;

ButtonsFrames:

-(CGRect) rightButtonFrame {
    return CGRectMake(self.rightButtonViewSection.width - 32, 7, 32, 30);
}
-(CGRect) rightSecoundButtonFrame {
    return CGRectMake(self.rightButtonViewSection.width - 80, 7, 32, 30);
}

Then the title will not move! because the UIButtonsViews are same width.
