Navigation Bar not showing in Storyboard in Xcode 6 - ios

I know this question has been asked before. I have already tried this Navigation Bar not showing in Storyboard. I have a navigation bar and a toolbar. They were showing in the storyboard fine before I restarted my system. They work completely fine during runtime but I am no longer able to access it using Storyboard. I have also tried changing top bar for Simulated metrics. Here is the screenshot for the same.

Make sure it is ticked here for Navigation Controller in Storyboard:

Try This seems like your frame is misplaced from the top and not according to the constraint too

Navigation bar item automatically changes its height and position in storyboard

I have a project which was build in Xcode 8.2 and now when I run it using Xcode 9.2. I am facing problems with the custom navigation title and bar buttons in the view controllers. In my storyboard I have a View Controller and on its Navigation bar I have a custom navigation view with a label used as the navigation title.
Since we cannot add constraints on the navigation view, I have given autolayout for both the view and label. Now when I run the project, the custom navigation title has disappeared. So I opened the storyboard to check what really happened, I was shocked to see that navigation view's origin.y value is changed to some other value, like -44, -88, etc. Now I edited the origin.y value, saved and run the project, but still the view was not seen. So now when I checked back in the storyboard the frame of the view was changed to some other value. I tried creating new custom navigation view, but no luck. This keeps happening and I am really worried. I really appreciate if you guys can give me some information on this issue.

White Bar appearing at bottom of each view controller in storyboard but doesn't affect when ran

In my storyboard view these white bars appeared at the bottom of every view. I can't remember what I did when they appeared, the only thing I can think of was that I tried to add a bar button but then deleted it, so maybe that created some sort of bar. However the bar doesn't show up when running the app in the simulator, it just has a visual in the storyboard.
Does anyone know what it is / why it appeared? and also how can I get rid of it. I got rid of a few by changing the view heights and then changing them back, but when trying to do the same in the first view when I clicked the white bar they all appeared again on every view.
Also, I've noticed some are within the view and some are an extension.
This issue is caused by adding a bar button item and then removing it. The fix is pretty easy though. Go to your storyboard and select the View Controller having the issue.
You will then want to go to the Utility area on the right side of your screen. You will see Bottom Bar = Translucent Toolbar. Change that to None and you're good to go.

I don't see bottom bar buttons...(using Xcode 5.1.1)

So I was editing a project of mine today, and I when I was running it I suddenly realized that the bottom bar buttons don't show at all. It used to in previous builds. I even put together a simple example and ran the product in the simulator -- no bottom bar buttons or bottom bar!!! Here's what I want to see:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10838242/xcodestoryboard.png
But that bottom bar doesn't show.
What's going on here? I even set the view's bottom bar to "opaque toolbar." It just doesn't show. Using Xcode 5.1.1 -- is this an issue with this version of Xcode?
Here's the super-simple project:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10838242/Test2.zip
In the "super-simple" project, it's because your navigation controller's Shows Toolbar is turned off (in the storyboard).
Check that checkbox and run the project; the bottom bar will now appear (I tried it so I know it works!).
I can't comment on Matt's post (which is correct), but in addition to his "Shows Toolbar" toggle, you can specify what kind of toolbar you want in the app from the navigation controller in the storyboard (i.e. opaque toolbar, translucent toolbar, translucent black tab bar, etc).

UITabBarController in storyboard hides content of UITabBarItems

I am a beginner using storyboards for iOS. I have been using the tab bar controller to show my content.
When I first implemented the UITabBar I could see all the icons at the bottom of the UITabController in storyboard and I could see the UITabBarItem at the bottom of each UIViewController. Why is there now a blank grey bar? I can't seem to change the content either in storyboard. I tried adding another UITabBarController but got the same problem, it also has a dark grey bar at the bottom. However when I run the app all the icons appear. How do I fix this so I can see the UITabBarItems in storyboard or should I just try updating them programmatically instead?
Showing a tab bar or not is one of the couple of simulated metrics used in Interface Builder. As such they only serve to have an idea of how your controller would look under different conditions but do not really change anything to the actual controller.
Most of the time the default Inferred option will try to deduce from the Storyboard configuration how it should look like. In your case just connect the tab bar controller to your controller through the viewControllers outlet.
In contrast, below you have some View Controller properties that change both how your controller is previewed in Interface Builder and also its actual behavior (for instance try changing Adjusts Scroll View Insets or Extended Edges).

UISplitView with UITabbar

I have a strange one that I can not seem to fix. I am currently working on updating my app to iOS7. This all worked in iOS6. It is an universal app and thus uses same xib files. However the iPad uses UISplitViews on some. Like I said, this all worked in iOS6 oh this all works on the iPhone too.
The problem is a grey bar at the bottom. I changed the tab bar to be opaque to move views up properly as i had some UI clipped to bottom of views and that went underneath the tab bar, sidetracked there. But if i set it back to translucent bar, it goes underneath but stretched properly. if i dont, it adds a bar. Other tabs work fine when NOT using splitview.
The UISplitviewController is added programmatically.
See attached image for better description.
This I have tried:
Added autoresize on splitview
Checked xib for subviews in the splitviews to have auto resize
Tried to force splitview to be screen bounds
Removed clips to bounds on all views
Removed autoresize subviews
Any ideas would be welcomed.
Thank you all.
UPDATE:
setting the background colour the uisplitview, it does colour the bar black. So the uisplitview is definitely stretching to it.
I subclassed UISplitViewController and added the line below to viewDidLoad and that fixed the grey line.
self.extendedLayoutIncludesOpaqueBars = YES;
I believe I have found an alternative solution for you. I have had the exact same problem, mostly because we are both doing something against Apple's Guidelines which is having a SplitViewController nested within a Tabbar controller (SplitView should be the root view). This was okay in iOS 5/6, but now in iOS 7 there are far too many side effects to achieve this.
The reason you see your view stretch completely when you set the bar to be translucent is because the bar is NOT taken into account when drawing the view. When you set translucent to false, it is then taken into account of the view and you will see that grey bar there because that's your view pretending there's a tabbar at the bottom of the screen.
And as always, a SplitViewcontroller's height cannot be changed, as it is determined by the visible window height.
I tried everything you did and then some. The real solution came from using a third-party Split View Controller.
I recommend switching over to https://github.com/mattgemmell/MGSplitViewController . This split view controller is actually one large View with container views living inside of it. Because of this, you avoid all the side effects of putting an actual split view controller within a tab bar.
If that doesn't float your boat, you could create your own solution which follows the same idea of having one UIViewController with two container views contained in it, though the people behind MGSplitViewController did a good job of that already.
This was the only way I was able to solve this issue, let me know if you find an alternative.
Instead of creating a subclass for UISplitViewController, I just added this code on my master's viewDidLoad:
self.splitViewController?.extendedLayoutIncludesOpaqueBars = true
For the controller that is the detail view of UISplitViewController you just do this:
-(UITabBarController*)tabBarController{
return nil;
}
