I am new to iOS development.I have create a navigation bar in my iPad application view.I don't need navigation controller that's why i have added only navigation bar. Now i want to add button in that navigation bar.I tried a lot but no success. Is it possible to add only navigation bar with button ? If yes then suggest me some sample code.
"i don't have navigation controller or need it. i just want to add navigation bar in only one view."
Bellow is my code which i write for adding navigation bar in ViewDidLoad()
UINavigationBar *navBar = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1026, 50)];
[navBar setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
[navBar setDelegate:self];
[self.view addSubview:navBar];
Thanks in advance....
I used the Interface Builder to make a static tableView in a UITableViewController.
This UITableViewController is shown modally. Then I added a NavigationBar without the UINavigationController behind it as follows:
//Creating the plain Navigation Bar
UINavigationBar *headerView = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
//The UINavigationItem is neede as a "box" that holds the Buttons or other elements
UINavigationItem *buttonCarrier = [[UINavigationItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"Sign-In"];
//Creating some buttons:
UIBarButtonItem *barBackButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Zurück" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleDone target:self action:#selector(signInBackPressed:)];
UIBarButtonItem *barDoneButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Fertig" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(signInDonePressed:)];
//Putting the Buttons on the Carrier
[buttonCarrier setLeftBarButtonItem:barBackButton];
[buttonCarrier setRightBarButtonItem:barDoneButton];
//The NavigationBar accepts those "Carrier" (UINavigationItem) inside an Array
NSArray *barItemArray = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:buttonCarrier,nil];
// Attaching the Array to the NavigationBar
[headerView setItems:barItemArray];
// Adding the NavigationBar to the TableView
[self.tableView setTableHeaderView:headerView];
I hope this helps somebody!
UIBarButtonItem *bi1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Edit" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(editButton)];
bi1.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
bi1.tintColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.305f alpha:0.0f];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = bi1;
[bi1 release];
You can add buttons to navigation bar as follows:
UIBarButtonItem *btnSave = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:#"Save"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self
action:#selector(save_Clicked:)];
navBar.rightBarButtonItem = btnSave;
[btnSave release];
UIBarButtonItem *btnCancel = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:#"Cancel"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self
action:#selector(cancel_Clicked:)];
navBar.leftBarButtonItem = btnCancel;
[btnCancel release];

In my project, some viewControllers have multiple text fields,
I found how to add a toolbar above keyboard with a "Ok" button to hide keyboard when the button is tapped.
The code I am using is this below :
UIBarButtonItem *flex = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:self action:nil];
UIBarButtonItem *barButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:_destField action:#selector(resignFirstResponder)];
UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 34)];
toolbar.items = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:flex, barButton, nil];
_destField.inputAccessoryView = toolbar;
How can I easily reuse this code in the same view controller?
The "target" makes this difficult, is there a way without creating a toolbar for each textField?
Thanks!
If this code is in a view controller then there is a simple solution. Change the barButton to something like this:
UIBarButtonItem *barButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:#selector(dismissKeyboard)];
Then add this method to the view controller:
- (void)dismissKeyboard {
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}
That will dismiss the keyboard no matter what view is showing it.
Now you can reuse that toolbar as the inputAccessoryView for any text field/view in the view controller.
I had a little problem which is my uicollectionviewcontroller top bar doesn't appear in simulator and device. I already set the top bar to translucent navigation bar for uicollectionviewcontroller, then I dragged navigation item to navigation bar and finally I set an image for left bar button items to function as back button. Below is there screenshot.
Top Bar Storyboard:
Simulator Result:
It doesn't look like you have a navigation controller, to add a navigation bar programatically without a navigation controller controlling the view hierarchy you can do the following.
-(void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
UINavigationBar *navBar = [[UINavigationBar alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 50)];
[UINavigationBar appearance].barTintColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
[self.view addSubview: navBar];
UIBarButtonItem *cancelItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Cancel"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self
action:nil];
UIBarButtonItem *doneItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Done"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self action:nil];
UINavigationItem *navItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Navigation Title"];
navItem.rightBarButtonItem = doneItem;
navItem.leftBarButtonItem = cancelItem;
navBar.items = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: navItem,nil];
[UIBarButtonItem appearance].tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
}
To add the navigation controller (which will add the bar), highlight the UICollectionViewController in storyboard, and select Editor->Embed in->Navigation Controller from the menus.
I am trying to place a UISearchBar on toolbar in an .xib file.
i am able to drag and drop the search bar onto the toolbar but it shows the following error.
ControllerName.xib:error: illegal Configuration: UISearchBar embedded in UIBarButtonItems (Only available ub iPad documents).
Please guide me how to include the UISearchBar into the Toolbar in xib.
As far as I know unless you are using IPAD for your development, you can not add UISearchBar directly in UIToolBar in IPHONE , you need to add the UISearchBar to a customView first and then add it to the toolbar programatically
// your searchbar
UISearchBar *searchBar = [[UISearchBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(xposition, yposition, width, height)];
//create a customview and make its frame equal to your searchbar
UIView *searchBarView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:searchBar.frame];
// add your searchbar to the custom view
[searchBarView addSubview:searchBar];
//finally add it to your bar item of the toolbar
UIBarButtonItem *searchBarItem =
[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:searchBarView];
By Programetically:
UIToolbar *Toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
[Toolbar sizeToFit];
UISearchBar *testbar = [[UISearchBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,2,250,38)];
NSMutableArray *barItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
UIBarButtonItem *flexSpace = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:self action:nil];
[barItems addObject:flexSpace];
UIBarButtonItem *btnCancel = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Button" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(ButtonMethod)];
[barItems addObject:btnCancel];
[Toolbar setItems:barItems animated:YES];
[Toolbar addSubview:testbar];
[self.view addSubview:Toolbar];
Here is Button Method;
-(void)ButtonMethod
{
// Write Code for ButtonMethod Method
}
You can do this Interface Builder now that Apple fixed this in Xcode 8.2. I think they disabled it before because popovers were not allowed on iOS before iOS 8.0 and a search bar in a toolbar implies that a popover will be used most times. But they forgot to disable it with iOS 8.0.
How can I add a toolbar on the left side of the splittview?
I have a navigationcontroller
and i already tried this:
UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] init]; toolbar.barStyle =
UIBarStyleDefault;
[toolbar sizeToFit];
UIBarButtonItem *infoButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:#"back" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self
action:#selector(info_clicked:)];
[toolbar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:infoButton,nil]];
[self.navigationController.view addSubview:toolbar];
But it is noch working. It appears at the top and not at the bottom

You don't have to create your own toolbar for a UINavigationController, just set toolbarHidden to NO to use its built-in one and add your UIBarButtonItem to it.
When an item from a UITableView is selected, a detail view is loaded which has a banner bar at the top with a back button on it to navigate back to the table.
How do I add other buttons to that banner bar?
As Andrew said, you can add custom views to the navigation bar. For example, if you are looking to add multiple buttons to the right side of the navigation bar, you can do something like this:
// right side of nav bar
UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 106, 44)];
NSMutableArray *buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:3];
UIBarButtonItem *deleteButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemTrash
target:self
action:#selector(deleteAction:)];
deleteButton.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
[buttons addObject:deleteButton];
[deleteButton release];
UIBarButtonItem *spacer = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace
target:nil
action:nil];
[buttons addObject:spacer];
[spacer release];
UIBarButtonItem *cancelButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemCancel
target:self
action:#selector(cancelAction:)];
cancelButton.style = UIBarButtonItemStylePlain;
[buttons addObject:cancelButton];
[cancelButton release];
[toolbar setItems:buttons animated:NO];
toolbar.barStyle = -1;
[buttons release];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:toolbar];
[toolbar release];
Make sure to adjust the width (106 above) if you need more or wider buttons, and then provide methods for the selectors (deleteAction: and cancelAction: above).
From your description, it sounds like you have a UINavigationController correctly set up. That "banner bar" you are describing is properly called a navigation bar.
From within the detail view, you can use:
UIBarButtonItem* button = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:"HiMom" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(onHiMom:)] autorelease];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = button;
You can also add custom views (instead of a button) plus a few other settings. I suggest poking around the documentation for UINavigationItem, UINavigationBar, and UIBarButtonItem for ideas.
