uitabbar

I just finished designing a application that uses a top bar that toggles between three UIViewControllers. My first thought was to use a UITabBarController, since it works very simular. However, the tabBar is at the bottom and in my PSD, it's at the top. Is there anyway I can change it? I see in the library I can drag in a UITabBar, but I don't know how to get it to change pages from there. Please help! Coulton I think it can be done, but you should be aware of this : "Important: In iPhone OS 3.0 and later, you should not attempt to use the methods and properties of this class to modify the tab

I have a Tab Bar app. The app has 8 UITabBarItems and the More button is added automatically. I want to change the title from More to something else. I have already tried the following: tabbarController.moreNavigationController.tabBarItem.title=@"Test"; But it still displays "More". No error. No changes. How can I change the "More" text to another? The label under the "More" button is localized for you based on the user's current Locale as specified in their Settings. However, you have to declare your support for that locale in your app's Info.plist. Add the CFBundleLocalizations key to your

I've been trying to change the background of the tab bar, and have read many posts here in ObjC, many of them quite old. But I didn't find any for Swift, which is what I'm using. I finally figured out how to do it from code, so the tab bar colors can be changed with each theme color change. Here are the references that I used: override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) { // set tab bar background color, including the More tab self.tabBarController?.tabBar.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor() } I put this code in the view controller for the first tab that appears when the app starts up, so

Before iOS 7 I used [[UITabBar appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor redColor]]; But now it only paint the selected item, I have read some suggestions but I can not fin how to do it, I used this too: [self.tabBarItem setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"openbookwp4.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"openbookwp4.png"]]; this put the icon I want, with the color I want, but only after I selected that tab for example, when I open the app the tab looks normal, but after I press the second tab and return to the first, the second tab now has the color I want. It is hard to

I'm almost finished with a project and am working out the last few UI kinks. My app uses a tab bar to navigate and for aesthetic purposes I want the app to open on the last tab (User Profile) instead of the first. I know I can reorder the tabs in Interface Builder but the tab bar would just look odd having the profile tab first and the home tab anywhere else. How can I leave the profile tab as the 5th tab yet by default open the app on that tab? Just set the selectedIndex of the tabBarController. Something along these lines. var freshLaunch = true override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
