How can I set the titlebar title for a modal view controller?

self.title = @"My View";

Doesn't work when my view is pre开发者_开发问答sented modally.

You must write following code for presenting modalView Controller..

yourModelController =[[Yourmodelcontroller alloc]init];

UINavigationController *controller = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController: yourModelController];

[[self navigationController] presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
[controller release];

Then in the viewDidLoad-method you need to write:

self.title =@"My View";

Please try this one:

self.title = NSLocalizedString(@"My View", @"Comment goes here");

You can use UINavigationItem property in ViewDidLoad() to set the navigation bar's title.

Swift Code:

self.navigationItem.title = "Bar Title"
