Navigation Bar Color

[Howard Nager]

I've seen applications out there which use different color schemes for the navigation bar. Yelp uses red, some are Black, transparent, etc. How is that accomplished...I can't find a way in interface builder. Any help is appreciated - thanks!

Hello Howard,

Try this

1. Open IB, select Navigation Controller and click on Tools ->
Inspector.
2. In the TopBar, you can set an option from the list.

You can do the same using code

self.navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle =
UIBarStyleBlackOpaque;

possible options are UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent,
UIBarStyleBlackOpaque, UIBarStyleDefault

You can also set the tint color (background color) this way

self.navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor
redColor];

Thanks,

There is a tintColor property on UINavigationBar class... set this to
let's say [UIColor grayColor] and it will change color.
If you're using Interface Builder for laying out your views you can
choose color from inspector window in attributes section.
