I have created custom navigation controller,
I want to be added, a date at the left, a back button on the right and the title next to back button.
I tried to add one label, but it does not work. Please show me a way
UINavigationBar *naviBarObj = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1024, 66)];
UILabel *navLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20,8,280,30)];
navLabel.text = @"My Text";
[self.navigationController.navigationBar addSubview:navLabel];
[self.view addSubview:naviBarObj];
UINavigationBar *naviBarObj = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1024, 66)];
UILabel *navLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(200,8,200,30)];
navLabel.text = @"My Text";
navLabel.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
[naviBarObj addSubview:navLabel];
[navLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[self.view addSubview:naviBarObj];
try this it will work .It works for me :)
add custom view in UIToolbar
UIToolbar *tools = [[UIToolbar alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f,190.0f, 44.01f)];
tools.barStyle = -1; // clear background
NSMutableArray *buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
UIBarButtonItem *bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:nil action:nil];
bi.width =10.0f;
[buttons addObject:bi];
[buttons addObject:add your view];
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:nil action:nil];
bi.width =10.0f;
[buttons addObject:bi];
[buttons addObject:add your view];
[tools setItems:buttons animated:NO];
UIBarButtonItem *buttons_ = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:tools];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = buttons_; //same to leftBarButtonItem
You can also achieve this from Interface Builder
1. First add a UIView
which will look like following
2. Then add a UILabel
inside the UIView
which will look like following
3. In the Center It will look like following
Now add necessary constraint to meet your requirement.
You need to add navigation item to the navigation bar. One per each navigation level. So you should have at least one of them.
** update **
UINavigationItem * myNavItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Some title"];
/*
* add buttons and labels
*/
[self.navigationController.navigationBar pushNavigationItem:myNavItem animated:NO];
You need to change the titleView
of the topItem
. Like this:
naviBarObj.topItem.titleView = navLabel;
** update: Complete code (tested and working) **
UINavigationBar *naviBar = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(.0, .0, 320.0, 44.0)];
UINavigationItem *navItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] init];
navItem.titleView = titleLbl;
[naviBar pushNavigationItem: navItem animated: NO];
[navItem release]; // you don't need this for ARC
[self.view addSubview: naviBar];
[naviBar release]; // you don't need this for ARC
