UINavigationBar Hide back Button Text
(36 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
My Doubt is How to hide Navigation Bar title "BACK" from backbutton (but need to show backbutton Arrow.)
Thank You.
Use this:
YourViewController *viewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"YourViewController"];
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:viewController animated:YES];
I suggest you use code like below :
- (void)configureNavigationBarButtonItem
{
UIButton *cancel = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[cancel setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50)];
[cancel setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cancel.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Verdana" size:13.0f]];
cancel.contentHorizontalAlignment=UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentLeft;
[cancel addTarget:self action:#selector(goBack:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
cancel.tag=3200;
imgBack = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5, 15, 18, 18)];
imgBack.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"back_black"];
[cancel addSubview:imgBack];
UIBarButtonItem *cancelBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:cancel];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = cancelBtn;
}
- (void)goBack:(id)sender
{
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

I added the following to customize my back button in my navigation bar but the image just overlaps/duplicated:
http://i.stack.imgur.com/eyzJC.png
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
//take out the label following the button
UIBarButtonItem *backButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];
//set image for back button
[[UINavigationBar appearance] setBackIndicatorImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"backButtonImage.png"]];
[[UINavigationBar appearance] setBackIndicatorTransitionMaskImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"backButtonImage.png"]];
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = backButton;
}
It's supposed to be an image of one black arrow facing to the left.
Before it worked fine but now it does this when I simulate it. Any insight and help would be appreciated.
Thank you
This should work for you.
UIButton *back = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
back.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 44);
back.contentHorizontalAlignment = UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentLeft;
[back addTarget:self action:#selector(back) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[back setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"backButtonImage.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView: back];
add a function:
-(void) back
{
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
Add this code
[UINavigationBar appearance].barTintColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:1.00 alpha:1];
It should solve your problem.
I made a category of UINavigationBar as follow:
UINavigationBar (UINavBar_Category)
I want to create custom back button using this.
I can able to set image by following code:
[[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_back.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
Problem can not able to change title of back button.
My try
- (void)didMoveToSuperview
{
UIBarButtonItem *backButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:lang(#"btnBack") style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];
self.topItem.backBarButtonItem=backButton;
}
Help me to solve this!
Thanks in advance
Try this code instead.. Here a button is first created , its title and image is set and then it is set as left bar button item of navigation controller.
UIButton *backBarButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 29)];
[backBarButton setTitle:#" Log Out" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[backBarButton setImage:[UIImage
imageNamed:#"leftarrow_ipad.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[backBarButton addTarget:self action:#selector(backAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *backBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backBarButton];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = backBarButtonItem;
Try this
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
if([self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:0] != self)
{
UIButton *backButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 26)];
[backButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"back.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal]; // some image
[backButton setShowsTouchWhenHighlighted:TRUE];
[backButton addTarget:self action:#selector(popViewControllerWithAnimation) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
UIBarButtonItem *barBackItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backButton];
self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = TRUE;
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barBackItem;
}
}
-(void)popViewControllerWithAnimation
{
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
I need to set a back arrow by replacing back Text(button)in navigation bar. I can view the back arrow but i don't know how to hide the back Text in navigation item. Here's is my code:
with this am getting warning : : CGImageCreateWithImageProvider: invalid image size: 0 x 0.
(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
UIImage *backButtonHomeImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"back-arrow.png"] resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 104, 13)];
[[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonBackgroundImage:backButtonHomeImage forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil;
}
The answer
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
if([self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:0] != self)
{
UIButton *backButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 26, 26)];
[backButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"back-arrow.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[backButton setShowsTouchWhenHighlighted:TRUE];
[backButton addTarget:self action:#selector(popViewControllerWithAnimation) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
UIBarButtonItem *barBackItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backButton];
self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = TRUE;
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barBackItem;
}
}
-(void)popViewControllerWithAnimation
{
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
may it will help.
Try this :
UIImage *backButtonHomeImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"back-arrow.png"] resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 104, 13)];
Create custom back button and add that button to Navigation controller's back button.
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,54,32);
UIImage *backButtonImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"back-arrow.png"];
[button setBackgroundImage:backButtonImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self.navigationController action:#selector(popViewControllerAnimated:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *barButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button];
[self.navigationItem setLeftBarButtonItem:barButtonItem];
Just set blank text to title of navigation bar before pushing to that view Controller as below code.
self.navigationItem.title=#" ";
I hope this would work
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil] autorelease];
i am new to iOS programming and i am wondering if it is possible to put 4 bar buttons into the UINavigationBar? I have tried a few methods that i have found on stack overflow but the buttons positions are not equal.
Here is a sample screenshot
.
The method that i used to code my navigation bar is:
UIToolBar *tools = [[UIToolBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 50)];
UIImage *backImage = [UIImage imagedName:#"backIcon.png"];
UIImage *shareImage = [UIImage imagedName:#"shareIcon.png"];
UIButton *backButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[backButton setImage:backImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
// create the button and assign the image to the leftsidebutton
UIButton *backButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[backButton setImage:backImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
backButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, backImage.size.width, backImage.size.height);
[backButton addTarget:self.navigationController action:#selector(popViewControllerAnimated:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIButton *shareButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[shareButton setImage:shareImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
shareButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, shareImage.size.width, shareImage.size.height);
//create space between the buttons
UIBarButtonItem *bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:nil action:NULL];
UIBarButtonItem *customBarButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backButton];
UIBarButtonItem *shareBarButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:shareButton];
self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = YES;
NSArray *leftActionButtonItems = #[customBarButton, bi, shareBarButton];
[tools setItems:leftActionButtonItems animated:NO];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:tools];
I did the same for rightBarButtonItem but it is not working so well.
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Try this one :
Edit :
it display Proper check it :
take .h file :
UIToolbar *toolBar_T;
UIBarButtonItem *item1,*item2,*item3,*item4;
take .m file :
toolBar_T=[[UIToolbar alloc] init];
toolBar_T.frame=CGRectMake(0,5,168, 44);
[self.view addSubview:toolBar_T];
UIButton *button0 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button0 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"1.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button0 addTarget:self action:#selector(button0:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button0.frame = CGRectMake(0, 7, 35,29);
item1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button0];
UIButton *button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button1 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"2.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 addTarget:self action:#selector(button1:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button1.frame = CGRectMake(0, 7, 35,29));
item2 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button1];
UIButton *button2 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button2 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"3.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button2 addTarget:self action:#selector(button2:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button2.frame = CGRectMake(0, 7, 35,29);
item3 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button2];
UIButton *button3 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button3 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"4.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button3 addTarget:self action:#selector(button3:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button3.frame = CGRectMake(0, 7, 35,29);
item4 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:butto3];
NSArray *buttons = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: item1, item2,item3, nil];
[toolBar_T setItems: buttons animated:NO];
toolBar_T.barStyle=-1;// For Clear backgroud
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:toolBar_T];
Hope it will help.
Happy coding...
You can try smth like this...
-(void)setupToolbarButtons:(UIViewController *)navC
{
//create a toolbar in the right
UIToolbar *tools = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 135, 44.01)];
tools.delegate = self;
tools.barTintColor = [UIColor clearColor];
//create the array to hold the buttons, which then gets added to the toolbar
NSMutableArray *buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:4];
//create a standart 'play' button
UIBarButtonItem *bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemPlay target:self action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
//create a standart 'stop' button
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemStop target:self action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
//create a standart 'fast forward' button
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFastForward target:self action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
//create a standart 'pause' button
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemPause target:self action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
//stick the buttons in the toolbar
[tools setItems:buttons animated:NO];
[buttons release];
//and put the toolbar in the nav bar
navC.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:tools];
[tools release];
}
...also you can add a spacer if it's needed
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:nil action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
and if something is wrong in vertical spacing, then add this
- (UIBarPosition)positionForBar:(id <UIBarPositioning>)bar
{
return UIBarPositionTopAttached;
}
UINavigationBar is Inherits from UIView, so you can simply add any object in.
Try the following code
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:customBarButton, bi, shareBarButton, nil];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:BUTTON OBJECTS, nil];
I'm trying to change the title of UIBarButtonItem when button is clicked. Here's the code that I have... but it doesn't work.
UIBarButtonItem * btnleft1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Test2"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleDone
target:self
action:#selector(TestingThis:)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:btn, btnleft, btnleft1, nil];
- (void)TestingThis:(id)sender {
if (self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem.title == #"Test2") {
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem.title = #"Done";
}
else
{
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem.title = #"Test2";
}
}
So that's the code that I'm using. Please keep in mind that button "btnleft1" is in rightBarButtonItem"S" and not in rightBarButtonItem. If i change it to rightbarbuttonitems.title... it gives me an error.
Late answer but for future reference, you can use custom button to do this :
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(10, 6, 60, 30);
UIButton *customButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
[customButton setTitle:#"Done" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[customButton setTitle:#"Undone" forState:UIControlStateSelected];
[customButton addTarget:self action:#selector(selectDoneClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *leftButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:customButton ];
[self.navigationItem setLeftBarButtonItem:leftButton];
Try setting the title explicitly.
You can do this with code:[(UIBarButtonItem *)item setTitle:#"someText"];
Here's a helpful link: Change the text of a UILabel (UIBarButtonItem) on a toolbar programmatically
Hope this helped!
