问题
I have icons for a tabBar of size 100.
I checked at Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and it says the image size should be 30x30 / 60x60.
But as the height of tab bar controller is 50, I kept the size of the image at 50x50.
Now, when I run the project, I see the ugly design below:
Any idea what size images I should use so that the design will be perfect?
Note: I am not writing text also (e.g. Home, Search, etc). The text of the tab button is there in the image itself.
回答1:
30x30 is points, which means 30px @1x, 60px @2x, not somewhere in-between. Also, it's not a great idea to embed the title of the tab into the image—you're going to have pretty poor accessibility and localization results like that.

According to the Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
@1x : about 25 x 25 (max: 48 x 32)
@2x : about 50 x 50 (max: 96 x 64)
@3x : about 75 x 75 (max: 144 x 96)

According to the latest Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
In portrait orientation, tab bar icons appear above tab titles. In landscape orientation, the icons and titles appear side-by-side. Depending on the device and orientation, the system displays either a regular or compact tab bar. Your app should include custom tab bar icons for both sizes.

Reference: https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/graphics/custom-icons/[https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/graphics/custom-icons/].
So the 50x50 size is a good choice.

According to my practice, I use the 40 x 40 for standard iPad tab bar item icon, 80 X 80 for retina.
From the Apple reference. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/BarIcons.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40006556-CH21-SW1
If you want to create a bar icon that looks like it's related to the iOS 7 icon family, use a very thin stroke to draw it. Specifically, a 2-pixel stroke (high resolution) works well for detailed icons and a 3-pixel stroke works well for less detailed icons.
Regardless of the icon’s visual style, create a toolbar or navigation bar icon in the following sizes:
About 44 x 44 pixels About 22 x 22 pixels (standard resolution) Regardless of the icon’s visual style, create a tab bar icon in the following sizes:
About 50 x 50 pixels (96 x 64 pixels maximum) About 25 x 25 pixels (48 x 32 pixels maximum) for standard resolution

Thumbs up first before use codes please!!! Create an image that fully cover the whole tab bar item for each item. This is needed to use the image you created as a tab bar item button. Be sure to make the height/width ratio be the same of each tab bar item too. Then:
UITabBarController *tabBarController = (UITabBarController *)self;
UITabBar *tabBar = tabBarController.tabBar;
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem1 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:0];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem2 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:1];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem3 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:2];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem4 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:3];
int x,y;
x = tabBar.frame.size.width/4 + 4; //when doing division, it may be rounded so that you need to add 1 to each item;
y = tabBar.frame.size.height + 10; //the height return always shorter, this is compensated by added by 10; you can change the value if u like.
//because the whole tab bar item will be replaced by an image, u dont need title
tabBarItem1.title = @"";
tabBarItem2.title = @"";
tabBarItem3.title = @"";
tabBarItem4.title = @"";
[tabBarItem1 setFinishedSelectedImage:[self imageWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"item1-select.png"] scaledToSize:CGSizeMake(x, y)] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[self imageWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"item1-deselect.png"] scaledToSize:CGSizeMake(x, y)]];//do the same thing for the other 3 bar item
