In my app I have a flow which goes like: The user press a button which changes the UIBarButtonItems and when the user clicks on one of them, its changes to something else. However I get the following exception when click on one of them.
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[App.MapViewController revealLeftView]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7fbc90c404c0'
First the buttons added in the storyboard gets their action set like this:
menuButton.action = #selector(PBRevealViewController.revealLeftView)
toolboxMenuButton.action = #selector(PBRevealViewController.revealRightView)
When the user clicks on a button elsewhere on the screen, I change the UIBarButtons like this:
let leftButton: UIButton = UIButton(type: UIButtonType.custom)
//set image for button
leftButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "close"), for: UIControlState.normal)
//add function for button
leftButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(MapViewController.cancelAddFields), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
//set frame
leftButton.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 20, height: 20)
let leftBarButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: leftButton)
let rightButton: UIButton = UIButton(type: UIButtonType.custom)
//set image for button
rightButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "add"), for: UIControlState.normal)
//add function for button
rightButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(MapViewController.confirmCreateFields(sender:)), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
//set frame
rightButton.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 24, height: 20)
let rightBarButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: rightButton)
//assign button to navigationbar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = rightBarButton
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftBarButton
This works as it should, and when the user clicks the close-button, I change the UIBarButtonItems like this:
let leftButton: UIButton = UIButton(type: UIButtonType.custom)
//set image for button
leftButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "MenuIcon_1"), for: UIControlState.normal)
//add function for button
//leftButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(MapViewController.cancelAddFields), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
//set frame
leftButton.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 24, height: 24)
let rightButton: UIButton = UIButton(type: UIButtonType.custom)
//set image for button
rightButton.setImage(UIImage(named: "ToolsIcon_1"), for: UIControlState.normal)
//add function for button
//rightButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(MapViewController.cancelAddFields), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
//set frame
rightButton.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 24, height: 24)
leftButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(PBRevealViewController.revealLeftView), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
rightButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(PBRevealViewController.revealRightView), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
let leftBarButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: leftButton)
let rightBarButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: rightButton)
//assign button to navigationbar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = rightBarButton
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftBarButton
It shows all up good, but when I click on one of them it throws the exception mentioned above. What am I doing wrong? I've tried the .action on the UIBarButtonItem itself, doesn't seem to work either.
It seems that in:
leftButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(PBRevealViewController.revealLeftView), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
self (the target) is not actually an instance of PBRevealViewController but a MapViewController. That means that you are telling the button to call method revealLeftView on a MapViewController.
Make sure you are using the correct target.

I am trying to set an Image for bar button Item for that I have an image like:
with resolution 30 * 30 but while I assign this Image to Bar button Its looks like:
I have assigned image this way :
and If I try this way like making an IBOutlet for the button and set Image programatically form this question and code for that is:
// Outlet for bar button
#IBOutlet weak var fbButton: UIBarButtonItem!
// Set Image for bar button
var backImg: UIImage = UIImage(named: "fb.png")!
fbButton.setBackgroundImage(backImg, forState: .Normal, barMetrics: .Default)
but nothing happend with this,
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?
or which is the batter way to do this?
I have achieved that programatically with this code:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//create a new button
let button: UIButton = UIButton.buttonWithType(UIButtonType.Custom) as! UIButton
//set image for button
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "fb.png"), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
//add function for button
button.addTarget(self, action: "fbButtonPressed", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
//set frame
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 53, 31)
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
//assign button to navigationbar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton
}
//This method will call when you press button.
func fbButtonPressed() {
println("Share to fb")
}
}
And result will be:
Same way you can set button for left side too this way:
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barButton
And result will be:
And if you want same transaction as navigation controller have when you go back with default back button then you can achieve that with custom back button with this code:
func backButtonPressed(sender:UIButton) {
navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)
}
For swift 3.0:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//create a new button
let button = UIButton.init(type: .custom)
//set image for button
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "fb.png"), for: UIControlState.normal)
//add function for button
button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.fbButtonPressed), for: UIControlEvents.touchUpInside)
//set frame
button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 53, height: 51)
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
//assign button to navigationbar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton
}
//This method will call when you press button.
func fbButtonPressed() {
print("Share to fb")
}
}
For swift 4.0:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//create a new button
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
//set image for button
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "fb.png"), for: .normal)
//add function for button
button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(fbButtonPressed), for: .touchUpInside)
//set frame
button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 53, height: 51)
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
//assign button to navigationbar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton
}
//This method will call when you press button.
#objc func fbButtonPressed() {
print("Share to fb")
}
}
An easy solution may be the following
barButtonItem.image = UIImage(named: "image")
then go to your Assets.xcassets select the image and go to the Attribute Inspector and select "Original Image" in Reder as option.
Similar to the accepted solution, but you can replace the
let button: UIButton = UIButton.buttonWithType(UIButtonType.Custom) as! UIButton
with
let button = UIButton()
Here is the full solution, enjoy: (it's just a bit cleaner than the accepted solution)
let button = UIButton()
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 51, 31) //won't work if you don't set frame
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "fb"), forState: .Normal)
button.addTarget(self, action: Selector("fbButtonPressed"), forControlEvents: .TouchUpInside)
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem()
barButton.customView = button
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton
Here's a simple extension on UIBarButtonItem:
extension UIBarButtonItem {
class func itemWith(colorfulImage: UIImage?, target: AnyObject, action: Selector) -> UIBarButtonItem {
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
button.setImage(colorfulImage, for: .normal)
button.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: 44.0, height: 44.0)
button.addTarget(target, action: action, for: .touchUpInside)
let barButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
return barButtonItem
}
}
Only two Lines of code required for this
Swift 3.0
let closeButtonImage = UIImage(named: "ic_close_white")
navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: closeButtonImage, style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(ResetPasswordViewController.barButtonDidTap(_:)))
func barButtonDidTap(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem)
{
}
I am using latest swift (2.1) and the answer (Dharmesh Kheni and jungledev) does not work for me. The image color was off (when setting in IB, it was blue and when setting directly in UIButton, it was black). It turns out I could create the same bar item with the following code:
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem(image: UIImage(named: "menu"), landscapeImagePhone: nil, style: .Done, target: self, action: #selector(revealBackClicked))
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barButton
You can use this code for multiple bar button with custom image:
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
button.setImage(UIImage (named: "ChatTab"), for: .normal)
button.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: 35.0, height: 35.0)
//button.addTarget(target, action: nil, for: .touchUpInside)
let barButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
let button2 = UIButton(type: .custom)
button2.setImage(UIImage (named: "ActivityTab"), for: .normal)
button2.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: 35.0, height: 35.0)
//button.addTarget(target, action: nil, for: .touchUpInside)
let barButtonItem2 = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button2)
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems = [barButtonItem, barButtonItem2]
Result will be this:
Initialize barbuttonItem like following:
let pauseButton = UIBarButtonItem(image: UIImage(named: "big"),
style: .plain,
target: self,
action: #selector(PlaybackViewController.pause))
Your problem is because of the way the icon has been made - it doesn't conform to Apple's custom tab bar icon specs:
To design a custom bar icon, follow these guidelines:
Use pure white with appropriate alpha transparency.
Don’t include a drop shadow.
Use antialiasing.
(From the guidelines.)
Something that would be possible looks like this. You can find such icons on most free tab bar icon sites.
Swift 4.
#IBOutlet weak var settingBarBtn: UIBarButtonItem! {

let imageSetting = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: "settings"))
imageSetting.image = imageSetting.image!.withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal)
imageSetting.tintColor = UIColor.clear
settingBarBtn.image = imageSetting.image
}
}

.navigationBarItems modifier takes any view you want:
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
Text("SwiftUI")
.navigationBarItems(leading:
HStack {
Image(systemName: "trash")
Text("Trash")
}
)
}
}
}
.navigationBarItems(trailing: Image(systemName: "trash") )
.navigationBarItems(leading: Image(systemName: "trash.fill"),
trailing: Image(systemName: "trash")
)
You can use a button for each if you need an action for each of them.

Just choose Original image option when adding an image to assets in Xcode
If your UIBarButtonItem is already allocated like in a storyboard.
(printBtn)
let btn = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 30, height: 30))
btn.setImage(UIImage(named: Constants.ImageName.print)?.withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate), for: .normal)
btn.addGestureRecognizer(UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(handlePrintPress(tapGesture:))))
printBtn.customView = btn
If you have set up your UIBarButtonItem with an image in the storyboard, one small hack to change the renderingMode is to add the following code to your viewDidLoad(). This way you don't have to resort to adding the entire button and image in code.
if let navButton = self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem, let buttonImage = navButton.image {
navButton.image = buttonImage.withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal)
}
navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: "Left",
style: .plain,target: self, action: #selector(rightbarButtonAction))
navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem?.image = UIImage(named: "Notification Bell")
I'm trying to make the title of the nav bar its own button. Users in my app can have multiple profiles, and the nav bar title displays the username of their currently selected profile. Pressing this button should bring up a list of available profiles to choose from (handleShowProfiles). For some reason, the title displays but does not function as a button, it's just static text and touching it does nothing.
let changeProfileContainer : UIView = {
let container = UIView()
container.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 40)
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
button.setTitle("#username ▼", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)
button.frame = container.frame
button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(handleShowProfiles), for: .touchUpInside)
container.addSubview(button)
return container
}()
func configureNavBar() {
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.tintColor = .black
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "send"), style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(handleSubmitPost))
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "drafts"), style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(handleDrafts))
self.navigationItem.titleView = changeProfileContainer
}
Any ideas why the button part won't function? In Apple's documentation, it says you have to put the button inside a view, make the button type custom, and change the button's frame from it's default (0, 0, 0, 0). I'm pretty sure this is where I'm messing up but I dunno.
Linked to self invocations in computed property -- See the last portion of Ahmad F's answer
Don't know why, but selectors in computed properties don't seem to work.
I tried adding the container view without computing it and clicking on the button works.
func configureNavBar() {
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.tintColor = .black
let container = UIView()
container.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 40)
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
button.setTitle("#username ▼", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(.black, for: .normal)
button.frame = container.frame
button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(pressTitle), for: .touchUpInside)
container.addSubview(button)
navigationItem.titleView = container
}
I am trying to left align back button i.e remove the space on the left of the back arrow . Using a custom back button .
let backButton = UIBarButtonItem(image: UIImage(named: "arrow03"), style: .Plain, target: self, action: "back")
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.tintColor = UIColor.clearColor()
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = backButton
Tried to use negative width for the button as suggested in the below SO link but it didnt work.

Please help.
Refer below code to implement back button on left alignment.
let button: UIButton = UIButton (type: UIButtonType.Custom)
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "imageName"), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
button.addTarget(self, action: "backButtonPressed:", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 30)
let barButton = UIBarButtonItem(customView: button)
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barButton
Note - Make sure your image has to be plain ( transparent ) background.
func backButtonPressed(btn : UIButton) {
self.navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)
}

I've got this transparent Navigation bar, and I can add a custom icon (code below). However it does not seem to respond to clicks, anyone have any idea why this could be caused?
I'm adding this inside a UIViewController which is inside a UINavigationController.
var button: UIButton = UIButton()
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "customBack"), forState: .Normal)
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 40, 40)
button.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 10, left: 10, bottom: 10, right: 10)
button.targetForAction("doAction:", withSender: button)
button.backgroundColor = UIColor.brownColor()
var leftItem:UIBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem()
leftItem.customView = button
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftItem
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem!.action = "doAction:"
self.navigationController!.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftItem
I know I shouldn't be adding back items myself but in this exact case it is needed. The icon is added on the fly not before loading the view or w/e.
To try it...
var ysBackButton:UIButton = UIButton(frame:CGRectMake(0, 0, kNavBtnSize, kNavBtnSize))
ysBackButton.setImage(UIImage(named: kBack), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
ysBackButton.addTarget(self, action: Selector("backButtonAction"), forControlEvents:UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
var leftBarButton:UIBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(customView: ysBackButton)
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftBarButton
Always just after posting I find out:
I was using
button.targetForAction("doAction:", withSender: button)
Whilst I should be doing:
button.addTarget(self, action: "doAction:", forControlEvents: .TouchUpInside)
I am trying to set an Image for bar button Item for that I have an image like:
