I've set the titleView of a UIViewController's navigationItem after init(). After pushing the VC to UINavigationController, titleView appears correctly at first time. But when I change (re-set) a titleView to an other view, it suddenly disappears.
But when I push another view controller and navigate back, it suddenly appears.
Do I have to perform any actions after re-setting the titleView?
If you are not using tab bar controller, then in viewDidLoad
setting the title as self.title is better.I have mentioned Tab bar Controller because if you have a view controller (in a NavigationController) in a UITabBarController, then if you set self.title it overrides the name of the tab as well as the top title.
I think you maybe code like this:
self.navigationItem.titleView = self.yourView;
If your yourView is a custom class , it maybe remove from superView when you switch your viewcontroller to next one;
So code like this maybe solve your problem:
[self.navigationItem.titleView addSubview:yourView];

I added UIViewController which has no storyboard to UITabBar.
It seems the view of added VC goes under the tab bar which does not
happen when I add a vc which used Storybaord to UITabBar.
How can I prevent this?
If you don't want the viewcontroller extend to any edges, you can try:
viewController.edgesForExtendedLayout = []
or viewController.extendedLayoutIncludesOpaqueBars = false should also work
I want to make a custom side bar by adding a new view to the view controller, the side bar will be in the yellow color background. I want my side bar also to overlap the navigation bar/item (green background color) in my view controller. but the navigation bar/item seems can't be overlapped by my side bar view, it seems only overlap the main view.
I tried to find the answer in stackoverflow, I find this Overlap navigation bar on ios 6 with other view, but the answer is on the Objective-C, I can't read Objective-C :(
What should I do to overlap navigation bar/item ? here is the screenshot of my view controller
I embed the navigation controller like this
There are plenty of implementations of slide-over or drawer containers.
What you need to do to get above the navigation bar is CONTAIN the navigation controller inside another view controller.
The stack would look like this.
MasterViewController
UINavigationController
RootViewController
Menu
See this one here:
Swift version of MMDrawerController
You can do this by changing your UIViewController hierarchy. For this you'll need three view controllers. First will contain everything, let's call it MasterViewController; second—your main content with navigation bar; and third—drawer.
In MasterViewController instantiate child view controllers and add them to your view controller hierarchy in viewDidLoad().
final class MasterViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
let drawerViewController = DrawerViewController()
let mainViewController = MainContentViewController()
let navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: mainViewController)
addChildViewController(drawerViewController)
addChildViewController(navigationController)
view.addSubview(navigationController.view)
view.addSubview(drawerViewController.view)
}
}
Now you have navigationController.view that you can place or animate anywhere within view.
How can I hide my left bar button item?
In my storyboard I dragged a Navigation Bar onto my View Controller, then a Bar Button Item. Under certain conditions I want to hide the Bar Button Item.
None of this works:
override func viewDidLoad() {
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItems = []
self.navigationItem.setLeftBarButtonItems([], animated: true)
}
I dragged a Navigation Bar onto my View Controller
Well, don't! There is a big difference between a navigation controller interface, where you set the navigationItem, and a loosey-goosey navigation bar just sitting there in the interface, which is what you have.
Embed your view controller in a UINavigationController and do things the right way. Then setting your navigationItem and its properties will work as expected.
You can't access to self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem because you manually drag navigationBar from storyboard. I would suggest to do the following instead:
add an IBOutlet of BarButtonItem (eg: barButton) that you created in storyboard
barButton.title = ""
barButton.isEnable = false
This will hide your BarButtonItem, and you can simply show it back later.
In a viewController I programmatically create a UIView that has the same height of the screen. The problem is that navigation bar is still visible and clickable, but I want it to go under the new view. How can I do that?
EDIT: this is a screenshot of what I have now
Not sure if this is what you actually want, since hiding it is a quite acceptable thing to do. However you can hide the rightButtonItem and disable the left one:
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = nil;
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem.enabled = NO;
And to get back your right bar button, if you need it again somewhere:
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.*whatever*ButtonItem;
See if that works. I'm away from my Mac at the moment, so can't check it myself.
Right now you have taken navigation controller as a root view
controller (Maybe),In this case navigation controller overlaps the
UIVewController's view that's why it comes on the view so you need to
hide the Navigation controller.
What about making it hidden?
self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = YES;
I have a UINavigationBar based app. I've created a custom UIView with some titles and added it as a subview to the navigation bar:
[self.navigationController.navigationBar addSubview:_navbarView];
Everything works ok until I hit the back button in the navigation bar and the UIViewController transition occurs.
The problem is that my custom view doesn't fade away like the others elements in the UINavigationBar, it just stays the same and disappears when the transition is complete.
I want it to fade away during the transition like the native elements of the UINavigationBar, is there any way to achieve this?
If you add a subview to the navigation bar, then it will just stay there; the navigation controller doesn't know to do anything special with it. You say your custom view has "some titles" - have you tried doing this instead?
self.navigationItem.titleView = _navbarView;
Then the navigation controller knows that the view should be used in place of your controller's title, and it should animate in and out.
If that doesn't work, you'll need to look at becoming the navigation controller's delegate. Since iOS7, this can get quite complex.
If you need custom navigation bar it could be a good idea to create UINavigationController with custom UINavigationBar
- (instancetype)initWithNavigationBarClass:(Class)navigationBarClass toolbarClass:(Class)toolbarClass
in your navigation bar class you can implement
- (UINavigationItem *)popNavigationItemAnimated:(BOOL)animated
{
if (animated) {
//your_problem_view animation here
}
[super popNavigationItemAnimated];
}
