When running the app, part of the content is hidden behind the phone's status bar.
I've tried to look this up, but I mostly see code on how to hide the phone's status bar, but I don't want to do that; I want to keep the phone's status bar visible.
Thanks
Showing Layout Decorations under the "Eye" option shows the status bar so I can do the layout accommodating it. solved

Changing the status bar's text color in iOS7 is simple and there is a lot of information on that topic.
So, to give you some context, today I saw this tweet:
That links to this video.
I was wondering about how to do that animation and the best way I can think of is:
A screenshot of the status bar with black text color that is inserted on top of the real status bar (with white color) and then the real status bar is slowly revealed.
As #Edgar confirmed it it is really what they are doing in the video (if you keep the finger on the screen while the time changes it is possible to see that).
However, this solution isn't good enough because in the meantime the status bar can change and it can become kinda creepy.
Is there a way to do this without a screenshot?
When you start swiping it does a screenshot of the status bar and puts it at the top of the real status bar and then it changes to style UIStatusBarStyleLightContent to UIStatusBarStyleDefault.
You can clearly see this if you play around with it and start the swipe gesture but do not release it, not only after one minute the clock becomes outdated but if you happen to start swiping when the activityIndicator is on, you'll see it stays static.
Unfortunately, as far as I know there's no way to have two status bars, both with the right info. Maybe if you could come up with a way to continually take screenshots of the real one and dynamically invert colors, but that would be expensive, performance wise.
As i know the status bar color depends on the near by view attached to
status bar.
if it is connected to the navigation bar then status bar takes the
color of the navigation bar.
if navigation bar is hidden then the top view that near to the status
bar that color is taken by the status bar.
This is getting very frustrating for me because I can't get the status bar to appear in my app. Everything related as far as UI is done on storyboard. when i set my status bar:inferred, top bar: inferred in my navigation controller, the status bar shows up fine. However, I do not want the top bar to appear as it interferes with my layout, so I set the top bar to none, which results in no top bar or status bar.
How can I just make the status visible without affecting my layout? (auto-layout is enabled)
So I did more googling and research, turns out I just had to add View controller-based status bar appearance as the key and the value as NO in the .plist file
I've read a few questions here and searched around a bit but nothing seems to solve my problem. I have a side navigation controller of which I am sliding the status bar (using a technique outlined here: Moving status bar in iOS 7).
In any event, when I hide the status bar to begin the slide (as soon as I tell the view to hide the status bar and add a fake one), the entire view moves up behind my faux status bar. Is there any way to move the view down so that the faux status bar appears directly above the view?
may be some autolayout issueAs there is no status bar , the view frame went to frame.origin.y=0. Try setting the frame to origin.y=20 before you hide the status bar.
If you are adding fake status bar as subview to mainView. set frame of fake status bar view to (origin.y=-20)
With iOS 7 we get the fancy transparent/blurry status and navigation bars.
I saw many posts here on SO talking about the content being overlapped by the status bar.
I understand why this is happening and it's ok in my case.
Now, I was wondering since I don't have navigation bars in my app:
How shall I handle any content being scrolled behind the transparent status bar.
(Note: By scrolling I mean real scrolling through content)
In my opinion it doesn't look nice if the status bar simply overlaps the content.
Is there an easy way to make it look "nicer"? Or do I have to play with offsets and manual blur to achieve a better look?
If I have understood the question, could you not place the background image to cover the entire screen and offset the scroll view y position by 20px (the height of the status bar).
Therefore you still get the nice effect of the transparent status bar but no content ever going under the bar itself.
I developed a simple app for iOS6 and now I'm to updating its appearence for iOS7. One of the first changes I would like to do concerns the navigation bar.
I'm using the standard navigation bar UI component that comes with xcode. While in iOS6 the navigation bar was clearly placed under the status bar (i.e. battery, carrier and hour), in iOS7 the navigation bar blends with the status bar.
My question is: how can I increase the height of the navigation bar and place the title vertically a little lower than the default position?
Currently I have this:
And the title is too close to the time. I would like to achieve this (standard Photos app that comes with iOS7):
here the title of the bar is lower and the bar is larger (or is just shifted down).
It have been trying to modify the height of the navigation bar through the size inspector but with no success.
It's probaly a very easy issue to solve, however I'm still new to xcode development and I can't figure it out.
Stick the view controller in a Navigation Controller, that should immediately solve the problem
