How to make the naveigation bar and开发者_运维问答 toolbar transparent and fadeout like in photo app in iPhone

Thank u ..

UINavigationBar inherits from UIView, so you can use UIView's animation methods to fade it out by setting the alpha property to 0. This should work:

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.5];
[navigationBar setAlpha:0.0];
[UIView commitAnimations];

Since I'm a block-using kinda guy, I use this little snippet.

[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 animations:^{
    [navigationBar setAlpha:0.0];
}];

Feels nicer to me, but you should probably only do this if you're used to blocks and you're rockin' iOS 4.0 or later.

To make the bar transparent, using setBarStyle: using the UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent.

To hide the bar with fade animation, use the code snippet Macatomy posted.

According to Apple specs, you should never change the frame, bounds, or alpha values of the navigation bar.

To hide (or show) the navigation bar, you can change the navigationBarHidden property or call the setNavigationBarHidden:animated method.
