uitabbar

I've tried my app on iOS 7.1 and I found that the tab bar background disappears on a few occasions. I was able to track them down; it happens when: pushing a view controller placed inside navigation controller (that is inside tab bar controller) with hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES presenting a view controller and then dismissing it (i.e. the MFMailComposeViewController ) I've created a sample app (used the tab bar template + added button to display the view controller, and a mapView to be able to tell if the bar disappeared), and the issue is there. Here is all the code for the sample app that

I have a UITabBar in my app, which I'm hiding on the first UIViewController in the first tab by putting this line in the A ppDelegate : // ... in MyAppDelegate.m firstViewController.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES; In the firstViewController , the user can push a UIButton that pushes a new UIViewController in the same tab. I'd like for the UITabBar to be visible again when this happens. I'm trying to make it come back like this: //... in firstViewController.m secondViewController = [[SecondViewController alloc] init]; secondViewController.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = NO; [[self

I like to have a custom selected image when a user selects an item on the tab bar, by default it selects as blue like but would like to have a green color instead. something like below any thoughts? Just found my solution. Basically, I subclassed UITabItem and set this in the navigation controller: -(void) viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated { [super viewDidAppear:animated]; CustomTabBarItem *tabItem = [[CustomTabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Events" image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"tabIcon.png"] tag:0]; tabItem.customHighlightedImage=[UIImage imageNamed:@"tabIconSelected.png"]; self.tabBarItem = tabItem

I'm hoping to accomplish this without the use of images, if at all possible. Is there a way to create the effect shown in the image programmatically without have to render each tab out as an image? Every question I've reviewed on SO has the tabs saved as JPGs, which is more work than I feel it should be. Any ideas? schickling I took a similar approach to @matcartmill but without the need for a special image. This solution is just based on your color. // set red as selected background color let numberOfItems = CGFloat(tabBar.items!.count) let tabBarItemSize = CGSize(width: tabBar.frame.width /

I have an UITabBar with 5 items. I want to change the unselected color of all items. The items aren't declared in the UIViewController classes (i built them and linked the views in the Storyboard). Is there an code like this : [[UITabBar appearance] set***UN***SelectedImageTintColor:[UIColor whiteColor]]; ? SO says i cannot delete the accepted answer (i tried), but obviously, there are a lot of upvotes for comments that this doesn't work for iOS 7. See the other answer below with many more upvotes, or the link in @Liam's comment to this answer. for iOS 6 only It should be as simple as this: [

I have an activation page in my app, which is mandatory for every user to activate the app. Once the app is activated, the user moves to the tabbed bar view. I have created a tabbed bar application, where from my activationView on click of button I am trying to call the tab bar, I am getting an entire black screen. - (IBAction)moveToActivateView:(id)sender { AppDelegate *appDelegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate]; UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc]init]; [self.view addSubview:tabBarController.view]; appDelegate.window = [[UIWindow
