Set a UIView as the background of a UITabBar - ios

I know how to customize the background color or the background image of a UITabBar:
tabBar.barTintColor = [UIColor ...]; // set background color
tabBar.backgroundImage = [UIImage ...]; // set background image
Unfortunately I have not found any option how to set a UIView as the background of a tab bar in the docs. Is there a way how I can achieve that?

Change Color from "Large" UINavigationBar

I'm facing a problem with a "Preferred Large Title" UINavigationBar.
I use in UINavigationController in ViewDidLoad:
self.navigationBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
But for iPhoneX I see the view's background colors on TopBar! I will set the yellow color complete to the top.

How can I set the correct Nav Bar tint color?

I am creating a title view in my navigation bar. I designed my title view with background view color R:255 G:182 B:22 (on photoshop). In my storyboard, I've set the navigation bar tint color with the same RGB code, default style and translucent checked.
I put my image on my navigation title using:
UIImage *titleImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Icon-Small-40.png"];
self.navigationItem.titleView = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithImage:titleImage];
When I run the app, you can clearly see a square icon in the title view. The title view has a slightly darker background. I want to make the background the same color. I get the feeling that it has something to do with some storyboard setting but I can't find the issue.
the view has a tintColor property, so
self.navigationItem.titleView.tintColor = ...
Below answer for your navigation bar tint color
self.navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor greenColor];
Trying to make colours match up like this can be maddening. Colour space problems aside, the actual colour of the navigation bar isn’t guaranteed by the API to be the same as its barTintColor. You might find it easier to give the title image a transparent background.

iOS - Button background changes with gradient background on iPad

I have one view and on view several buttons. I have added a gradient background to view and background image to buttons. But my button's color is changing as gradient background goes down on iPad 6.0.
I have tried to add gradient background to view using both programatically and by adding a gradient image to view by:
CAGradientLayer *bgLayer = [BackgroundLayer greyGradient];
bgLayer.frame = self.view.bounds;
[self.view.layer insertSublayer:bgLayer atIndex:0];
And
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"keyboard_BG.png"]];
But nothing is working.

It sounds like the background image you're using for the buttons is semi-tranparent. Try removing the image, and instead setting an opaque background color. If that works, you'll probably need to edit the background image to make it fully opaque.
