How to remove all navigationbar back button title

问题:

When I push a UIViewController, it has some title in back button at new UIViewController, if the title has a lot of text, It does not look good in iPhone 4s So I want to remove it.

If I add some code in prepareForSegue function, it is going to be a trouble.

Any better way to achieve this？

回答1:

If you want back arrow so following code put into AppDelegate file into didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method.

For Objective-C

 [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonTitlePositionAdjustment:UIOffsetMake(0, -60) forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

For Swift

let BarButtonItemAppearance = UIBarButtonItem.appearance()
BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes([NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.clear], for: .normal)

Another option give below.

In Objective C

self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];

In Swift

self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title:"", style:.plain, target:nil, action:nil)

UPDATE :

    let BarButtonItemAppearance = UIBarButtonItem.appearance()

    let attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey: Any] = [
    BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes([NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.clear], for: .normal)
            NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 0.1),
            NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.clear]

    BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes(attributes, for: .normal)
    BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes(attributes, for: .highlighted)

UPDATE SWIFT 4.1 :

    let attributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.font:  UIFont(name: "Helvetica-Bold", size: 0.1)!, NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.clear]

    BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes(attributes, for: .normal)
    BarButtonItemAppearance.setTitleTextAttributes(attributes, for: .highlighted)

Using Offset

UIBarButtonItem.appearance().setBackButtonTitlePositionAdjustment(UIOffsetMake(-1000, 0), for:UIBarMetrics.default)

So may be your problem has been solve.

Happy coding.

Work's like charm on Swift 3

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.topItem?.title = " "

I'm using this line of code in AppDelegate file into didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method to remove the backbutton title.

Swift 2.x

let barAppearace = UIBarButtonItem.appearance()
barAppearace.setBackButtonTitlePositionAdjustment(UIOffsetMake(0, -60), forBarMetrics:UIBarMetrics.Default)

Swift 3.x

UIBarButtonItem.appearance().setBackButtonTitlePositionAdjustment(UIOffsetMake(0, -60), for:UIBarMetrics.default)

Swift 4.x

UIBarButtonItem.appearance().setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.clear], for: .normal)
    UIBarButtonItem.appearance().setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.clear], for: UIControlState.highlighted)

Just need go to your Parent ViewController from where your other ViewControllers are dependent.

override func viewWillDisappear(animated: Bool) {
super.viewWillDisappear(true)
navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: "", style: .Plain, target: nil, action: nil)}

回答5:

You can use xcode 8 and swift 3.0

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.backItem?.title = " "

回答6:

let barAppearace = UIBarButtonItem.appearance()
barAppearace.setBackButtonTitlePositionAdjustment(UIOffsetMake(0, -60), for:UIBarMetrics.default)

used this line of code in swift 3.0

You could create a subclass for all UIViewControllers you want this behavior for, and in the subclass's viewDidLoad:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(
        title: "", style: .plain, target: nil, action: nil)
}

This way, you can choose which controllers you want the behavior for, without duplicating code. I prefer my controllers to just say "Back", rather than the title of the previous controller, so I set that title here.

Taking inspiration from rordulu's answer here, I ended up creating a custom UINavigationController and UINavigation bar which seems to handle all cases of this tricky problem.

1) Initialise new UINavigationController with your custom UINavigationBar:

class CustomNavigationController: UINavigationController {

    convenience init() {
        self.init(navigationBarClass: CustomNavigationBar.self, toolbarClass: nil)
    }
}

2) Set the backItem.title property of the navigation bar to an empty string, every time the view lays itself out

class CustomNavigationBar: UINavigationBar {

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        backItem?.title = ""
        super.layoutSubviews()
    }
}

Now every time you use this navigation controller and bar combination, it will never have back button text!
