iPhone/Objective-C - Change default "navigationItem.prompt" color

Is there a way to set the self.navigationItem.prompt color to White? At the moment it's Black.

This is how I'm setting my navigationBar开发者_JAVA百科 color at the moment:

// Set top navigation bar.
UINavigationBar *bar = [navController navigationBar];
[bar setTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:180.0/255.0 green:25.0/255.0 blue:34.0/255.0 alpha:1]];
UIImageView *navBar = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
[navBar release];

..and this is how I'm setting my navigationItem.prompt:

self.navigationItem.prompt = @"Tap image for more options.";

Its possible now in iOS 5 or later. Try this code.

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:
      [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
       [UIColor whiteColor], UITextAttributeTextColor, nil]];

I'm afraid that the prompt color is hardcoded and not customizable.

I managed to customize the prompt using the following (tricky) hack, that replace the prompt :

• Set the navigationItem.prompt = @"" to force the navigationBar to display an empty prompt
• Set the navigationItem.titleView with :
  • A UILabel or whatever you want to replace title, with inside, as a subView, to replace the prompt :
    • Another UILabel as prompt, styled as you like
    • That label being x centered and with a y=-31px offset (that's where normal prompt is)
    • Make sure that the titleView has .clipsToBounds = NO so the custom prompt is drawed properly

I applied this for all my controllers by overriding UIViewController.setTitle: with something like (that won't work/build as is, it is a quick extraction of a more complex code, but that shows the logic) :

- (void)setTitle:(NSString *)title {
  [super setTitle:title];
  UILabel *titleLabel = ... build the titleLabel
  titleLabel.text = title;
  if (self.navigationItem.prompt) {
    UILabel *promptLabel = ... build the promptLabel
    promptLabel.text = self.navigationItem.prompt;
    self.navigationItem.prompt = @"";
    promptLabel.centerX = titleLabel.width/2;
    promptLabel.top = -31;
    [titleLabel addSubview:promptLabel];
    titleLabel.clipsToBounds = NO;
  }
  self.navigationItem.titleView = titleLabel;
}

In iOs 5 I changed with appearance of UINavigationBar. You can change color of prompt with following code

   [[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[UIColor grayColor], UITextAttributeTextColor, [UIColor colorWithRed:10 green:20 blue:30 alpha:1.0f], UITextAttributeTextShadowColor, [NSValue valueWithUIOffset:UIOffsetMake(0, -1)], UITextAttributeTextShadowOffset, nil]];

I used to random number & colors, You can customize colors by passing your own choice. Hope it will help.

try this way.

navigationhBar.tintColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.4039216041564941 green:0.6470588445663452 blue:0.062745101749897 alpha:1];

Swift:

        self.navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes =
                 [NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.white]
        self.navigationController?.navigationBar.barTintColor = UIColor.red
