I'm developing an app so I need a UINavigationBar. I want to put a title inside of it so I placed a UILabel with the title I want to show. When I run the simulator, it shows everything okay except the title: it doesn't appear. I used constraints to place the UILabel so I guess it's not hidden everywhere. In my Storyboard everything shows fine.
If you're having a navigation controller with your view controller, then you cans et the title using
self.title = #"YOUR_TITLE";
Hope this helps..
Have you tried on a device? Does it still do the same?
Try Adding it directly to the nav bar. Double click the UINavigationBar and add your title
or
Double click UINavigationBar and add it in the Title section that appears in the attributes inspector
Or in code putting labels, buttons on the navigation bar iOS

I'm developing a (so far) simple iOS application using storyboards.
At one place in the storyboard, I have:
Navigation controller -> Table View (prototype content) -> Regular view
The "regular view" is accessed from a + (PLUS) button in the navigationbar in the table view. In the "regular view" I would like to have a save button in the NAVIGATION BAR. However, when I drag it from the object library to the "regular view" it appears in the TOOLBAR (at the bottom of the screen) instead of in the NAVIGATION BAR. I have not found a way to move it, or found any settings where I can change it. I'm not sure if there is something constraining me from putting a button there or if XCode just mess with me. (I'm new to iOS programming)
Notes:
In the "regular view", I have a back button and a title. According to the design guides I should be able to have one more button.
Thanks for any help!
If anyone faces this problem, I did the following:
I couldn't add a Bar button because there were no top bar in that view. First I tried to put a Navigation Bar in the view, but Xcode crashed. Then I tried to put a Navigation Item, which worked. After that I could place my bar button in the top bar.
What I don't understand is why I could put the Add (+) button in the previous view, since that doesn't have any navigation entry either, but I'm guessing it's since that view was the root view controller of a Navigation Controller. Someone else can maybe give a more detailed answer.
There isn't any solution for this so far. There are however some workarounds for this problem.

I'm having a little bit of an issue. When I place the UIBarButtonItem on the tab bar controller it works perfectly, it displays as it should:
However, I can't put a button onto where the black square is. Does anyone know how I could do this non-programatically?
You should probably add a Navigation Item by dragging it from the Object Library to the place where you have marked in black and then try adding a Bar Button Item on the right. It should work
UINavigationBar wants only UIBarButtonItem. You can create one with custom View programmatically. Show here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16058345/717193
I am not a huge fan of using Interface Builder and for that reason I am new to it.
I am trying to add a UIToolbar to a navigation controller but because Apple documentation is always very clear, I don't have a clue.
I am converting an old project to use Storyboards.
This is what I have done.
I have added a storyboard to the project
I have added a navigation controller to it
Because I want this navigation controller to show a toolbar at the bottom, I have clicked on the navigation controller and turned the toolbar on (see pic).
after that, a white rectangle appeared at the bottom of the navigation controller on interface builder. I think this is a the UIToolBar or a placeholder. I have tried to drag a BarButtonItem to this "space" and Xcode allowed, showing it like this:
When I run the app, the toolbar shows as a white rectangle at the bottom but not the button.
The button shows like this on the hierarchy:
I suppose the button should be inside the Toolbar item, but Xcode forbids dragging the item there.
How do I make the button show?
The problem here is that your are trying to add an UIToolBar in a UINavigationController ...
Try in an UIViewController and that will work !
Edit:
Try this :
You just drag and drop the UINavigationItem on UINavigation RootViewController instead of UIToolbar.
It will allow you to put UIBarButtonItem on that UINavigationItem and works same like UIToolbar Button.
I'm developing a simple UI for an iOS app.
what I've done is I developed it into a table view which has a navigation controller associated to it and had it laid out in Storyboard.
Everything seems working fine, except the navigation bar accidentally cover the view's title bar "Click to select item" as shown in the pictures below.
the first picture is when it first shows on the screen.
the second one illustrates when I drag the title bar off the covering navigation bar.
what do i do to get completely rid of this?
In Interface Builder, select your view controller and on the attributes inspector turn off Layout: Wants Full Screen. Then, your layout will automatically adjust its size to make room for the navigation bar.
Add this code in your viewDidLoad method
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.translucent = false
It works for me, since you've the same problem with me, I think it's work for you as well.
where u want hide navigation bar use this line
self.navigationController.hidden = YES;
Using the storyboard I created a new screen for a second View controller and added a Toolbar at the bottom. But when the view is shown, the toolbar doesn't appear. I'm using Segue to change views.
What could be wrong?
If you're using a Navigation Controller, make sure to tick "Shows Toolbar" and add the buttons there, not on a standalone toolbar.
In order to show only on some, you'll need 2 different views, one that will hide it and another that won't and add the following to the respective view's viewWillAppear:
self.navigationController.toolbarHidden = YES;
(Set to YES to hide, NO to show)
You can play around with the Simulated Metrics on the Storyboard so as to visually simulate the run-time effect by setting Bottom Bar to either None or Toolbar instead of inferred, as appropriated.
EDIT: Check this sample project I made.
Select the Navigation Controller in the storyboard. Under Bar Visibility, check "Shows Toolbar".
try this
self.navigationController.toolbarHidden=NO;
In the show the size inspector in the field autosizinf choose to bind to the top of the screen and remove the binding to the bottom of the screen.
