I'm trying to implement UINavigationBar with custom controls. So, I've added UIView on left side of UINavigationBar and trying to add controls to that UIView with following code:
UIView *view = navigationController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem.customView;
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:view.frame];
[button setTitle:@"TEST" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[view addSubview:button];
[button sizeToFit];
[button release];
Code works, but button doesn't appear.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
UPD
OK, I gave a try to code below and made such thing:
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 40, 50)];
[button setTitle:@"XXX" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
UIBarButtonItem *cust开发者_StackOverflow中文版omItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button];
navigationController.visibleViewController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = customItem;
[customItem release];
[button release];
The "XXX" title did appear, but it looks like simple label, not button. Any ideas?
Yes, your UIButton doesn't come with any shading. What I've done is used a UISegmentedControl to get shading for free:
// Add the Menu button to the navigation bar
NSString* menuLabel = "ShadeButton";
CGSize textSize = [menuLabel sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0]];
UISegmentedControl* menuSegmentedButton = [[UISegmentedControl alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, textSize.width, 29.0f)];
menuSegmentedButton.momentary = YES;
menuSegmentedButton.selected = NO;
menuSegmentedButton.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStyleBar;
[menuSegmentedButton insertSegmentWithTitle:menuLabel atIndex:0
animated:NO];
[menuSegmentedButton addTarget:self action:@selector(doMenu)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
UIBarButtonItem* barButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:menuSegmentedButton];
[menuSegmentedButton release];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButton;
Create your UIBarButtonItem with the UISegmentedControl as shown above rather than a UIButton and you should get the effect you're after. The alternative is to do more work on the button and create a texture/custom image for it yourself.
Note quite right.
If you just want a different title:
UIBarButtonItem *customItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"TEST" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];
navigationController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = customItem;
[customItem release];
If you really want a custom view:
// Create Custom View called myView.
UIBarButtonItem *customItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:myView];
navigationController.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = customItem;
[customItem release];
