Answer 1

To solve the push/pop issue use setTitleVerticalPositionAdjustment in sizeThatFits:(CGSize)size

- (CGSize)sizeThatFits:(CGSize)size {
    UIImage *img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"navigation_background.png"];
    [self setTitleVerticalPositionAdjustment:-7 forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    CGRect frame = [UIScreen mainScreen].applicationFrame;
    CGSize newSize = CGSizeMake(frame.size.width , img.size.height);
    return newSize;
}

Answer 2

Try to override layoutSubviews: call [super layoutSubviews] inside and then reposition the items.
