Adding image to navigation bar
- by 4thSpace
I'd like an image to take up all of a navigation bar. This is the navigation that comes with a navigation based app. It appears on the RootViewController with the accompanying UITableView. I've seen some examples of how this might work.
Set navigation bar title:
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"TableviewCellLightBlue.png"];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
[self.navigationController.navigationBar.topItem setTitleView:imageView];
The problem there is it only covers the title rather than the entire navigation bar.
There is also this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9254241#9254241. Towards the end, the solution looks to use a tab bar, which I'm not using. It is that complicated to set a navigation bar background? Is there some other simpler technique?
I'd like to have a background for the navigation and still be able to use title text.
