read the following code:
// Creiamo la toolbar sotto
UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 372, 320, 44)];
toolbar.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"imgImpostazioniToolbar.png"]];
UIBarButtonItem *pulsanteImpostazioni = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:imageView];
[pulsanteImpostazioni setTarget:self];
[pulsanteImpostazioni setAction:#selector(prova)];
[imageView release];
UIBarButtonItem *spaziatore = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];
NSArray *buttons = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:spaziatore, pulsanteImpostazioni, spaziatore, nil];
[toolbar setItems:buttons animated:NO];
[self.view addSubview:toolbar];
[buttons release];
I can see correctly my image but when I try to touch it nothing happen.
I didn't set correctly the selector of "pulsanteImpostazioni"?
Thanks
P.s. "prova" contain only a NSLog.
Try
[pulsanteImpostazioni setAction:#selector(prova:)];
The colon at the end of the selector name matters.
i find the solution in this mode:
UIButton *pulsanteImpostazioni = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[pulsanteImpostazioni setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50)];
[pulsanteImpostazioni setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"imgImpostazioniToolbar.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[pulsanteImpostazioni addTarget:self action:#selector(prova) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *pulsanteImpostazioni = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:pulsanteImpostazioni];
Thanks anyway for your answers =)

When One of my app navigate from one controller to another, the 'go back' UIBarButtonItem disappear, so I wrote codes:
UIBarButtonItem *barButton1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#""
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleDone
target:self
action:#selector(barButtonItemPressed:)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = barButton1;
[barButton1 setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"fdj.png"]];
[barButton1 release];
It works, but it display as
but I prefer the style (like standard go back barbuttonitem
Is it possible?
Welcome any comment
You should edit the navigationItem of the parent view controller:
You can place this in the viewDidLoad of the previous view controller:
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:nil style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil] autorelease];
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"fdj.png"];
here is the code how you can do this
UIButton *btnBack = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
btnBack.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 55, 36);
[btnBack setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"btnBack"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnBack setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"btnBack"] forState:UIControlStateSelected];
[btnBack addTarget:self action:#selector(onClickBack) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *item4 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:btnBack];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = item4;
just make image and set it in uibutton, it's simple way to do this.
you can set any image you want.
hope this may help you what you want.
In the parent view controller's init method, set
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithImage: [UIimage imageNamed: #"fdj.png"]
style: UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target: nil
action: nil] autorelease];
This is what I'm using in an older project of mine (and yes, I know that stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth is deprecated).
#implementation UIViewController (UIView_ExtenderClass) // this is a category, obviously
...
-(void)setLeftButton:(id)theTarget navItem:(UINavigationItem *)myNavItem action:(SEL)myAction title:(NSString *)myTitle;
{
CGSize titleWidth = [myTitle sizeWithFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:14.0]];
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, titleWidth.width + 20, 32)];
[button setTitle: [NSString stringWithFormat:#" %#", myTitle] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.titleLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:14.0];
[button addTarget:theTarget action:myAction forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIImage *imgBack = [UIImage imageNamed:#"32_left_nav_bar.png"];
UIImage *imgBackStretched = [imgBack stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:15 topCapHeight:0];
UIImage *imgBackSelected = [UIImage imageNamed:#"32_left_nav_bar_selected.png"];
UIImage *imgBackSelectedStretched = [imgBackSelected stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:15 topCapHeight:0];
[button setBackgroundImage:imgBackStretched forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setBackgroundImage:imgBackSelectedStretched forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
UIBarButtonItem *buttonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button];
[buttonItem setTarget:theTarget];
myNavItem.leftBarButtonItem = nil;
myNavItem.leftBarButtonItem = buttonItem;
[imgBack release];
[imgBackSelected release];
[button release];
[buttonItem release];
}
Call it in the viewDidLoad of the second controller, like this:
[self setLeftButton:self navItem:self.navigationItem action:#selector(yourActionHere) title:#"Back"]

I am really having a hard time creating a UIToolBar programmatically(no xib file). This is what I would like to create.
But till now, I feel I have not approached it in the right way. I have tried adding a barbuttonitem to it, but I cant create the effect as shown in the png. How should I go about it. Help needed.
Edit: I have added a bigger image
UIBarButtonItem *spaceItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil];
[self.navigationController.toolbar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackOpaque];
UIBarButtonItem *customItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"toolbar title" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(onToolbarTapped:)];
NSArray *toolbarItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:spaceItem, customItem, spaceItem, nil];
[self setToolbarItems:toolbarItems animated:NO];
Create your toolbar with CGRECT to put it where you want
UIToolbar *myToolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(x, y, width, height)];
You can customize it with background image, title, text color, background color, ...
Next create your button
UIBarButtonItem *theButton = [UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"button title" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(selector:)];
Add it to yout toolbar :
NSArray *buttons = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: theButton, nil];
[myToolbar setItems:buttons animated:NO]
add your toolbar to the current view
[self.view addSubview:mytoolbar]
Just typed not tested, hope it'll help

button_slice_over.png for button background (pressed)
UIToolbar *toolbar = [UIToolbar new];
toolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
toolbar.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
Then add a UIBarButtonItem to toolbar.
UIToolbar *myToolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, self.view.frame.size.height - 44, 320, 44)];
myToolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack;
UILabel *myLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
myLabel.text = #"Sperre aufheben";
myLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
myLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
myLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[myToolbar addSubview:myLabel];
[self.view addSubview:myToolbar];
[myLabel release];
[myToolbar release];
Seems like a better fit for a nav bar (at least if you are keeping with the spirit of what you are doing: IE adding a title to the bottom of the screen)
Anyway I created a simple test project and this is what I did to get the functionality pictured, you may have to insert it into the view/controller differently but it gets what you want relatively easy and doesn't use the button bar
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
UINavigationBar *navBar = [[UINavigationBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, self.view.frame.size.height - 44, 320, 44)];
[navBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlack];
UINavigationItem *title = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Your Title"];
NSArray *array = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:title, nil];
[navBar setItems:array];
[self.view addSubview:navBar];
}
I want to insert one button and one label in my NavigationBar in iOS.
I have tried with UISegmentedControl and it works completely fine with one control!
Now the problem is I want to add multiple controls as i have said before How can I?
Look at my code
UIView *v;
[v insertSubview:listingsLabel atIndex:0];
[v insertSubview:shareBtn atIndex:1];
[v setFrame:[self.navigationController.toolbar bounds]];
self.navigationItem.titleView = v;
v.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 29);
and it gives me error of EXC_BAD_ACCESS
UIToolbar* tools = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 44.01)];
// create the array to hold the buttons, which then gets added to the toolbar
NSMutableArray* buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:3];
// create a standard "add" button
UISegmentedControl *segmentedControl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:[NSArray array]];
[segmentedControl insertSegmentWithTitle:#"All" atIndex:0 animated:NO];
[segmentedControl insertSegmentWithTitle:#"Related" atIndex:1 animated:NO];
segmentedControl.selectedSegmentIndex = 0;
segmentedControl.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStyleBar;
[segmentedControl addTarget:self action:#selector(segmentedAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
// create a standard "add" button
UIBarButtonItem* bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView: segmentedControl];
bi.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
// create a spacer
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:nil action:nil];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
// create a standard "refresh" button
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemSave target:self action:#selector(save:)];
bi.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
// stick the buttons in the toolbar
[tools setItems:buttons animated:NO];
[buttons release];
// and put the toolbar in the nav bar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:tools];
[tools release];
Because you don't init the UIView the right way, it crashes because the iPhone doesn't know what to do with
[v insertSubview:listingsLabel atIndex:0];
This is because v isn't an object yet. So change
UIView *v;
to
UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 29)];
And release it here again (if not using arc)
self.navigationItem.titleView = v;
[v release];
The navigation bar on iPhone only supports only a left and right bar button item, and a title view. Only the (larger) navigation bar on iPad allows an arbitrary number of buttons.
If you're using a navigation bar without a navigation controller, I suppose you could just plop whatever you want onto it as subviews.
UIButton *btnBack = [[UIButton alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5,5,60,32)];
[btnBack setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"back_btn.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
btnBack.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[btnBack addTarget:self action:#selector(eventBack:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UILabel *lbl = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(12, 2, 60,25)];
[lbl setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
lbl.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:12];
lbl.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12];
lbl.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
lbl.text =#" Back";
[btnBack addSubview:lbl];
[lbl release];
UIBarButtonItem *backBarBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:btnBack];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = backBarBtn;
[btnBack release];
[backBarBtn release];
UILabel *lblTitle = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(110, 0, 170, 40)];
lblTitle.text = #"ABC";

lblTitle.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
lblTitle.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:17];
lblTitle.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:17];
self.navigationItem.titleView = lblTitle;

i was working with navigation bar button items.i was using the following code to do so
UIBarButtonItem *btnSave = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:#"Save"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self
action:#selector(save_Clicked:)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = btnSave;
[btnSave release];
UIBarButtonItem *btnCancel = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:#"Cancel"
style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
target:self
action:#selector(save_Clicked)];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = btnCancel;
[btnCancel release];
my question is how to add another button just adjacent to the left bar button item.
thanks in advance
To do this you need to create a toolbar then keep adding UIButton to it, then set the toolbar as the leftBarButton
something like this:
UIToolbar* tools = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 250, 44)];
tools.tintColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[tools setTranslucent:YES];
NSMutableArray* buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:9];
UIImage *myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"AL_HomeMod_Icon.png"];
UIButton *myButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[myButton setImage:myImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
myButton.showsTouchWhenHighlighted = YES;
myButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, myImage.size.width, myImage.size.height);
[myButton addTarget:self action:#selector(clickViewHomeMod) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:myButton];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"AL_History_Icon.png"];
myButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[myButton setImage:myImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
myButton.showsTouchWhenHighlighted = YES;
myButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, myImage.size.width, myImage.size.height);
[myButton addTarget:self action:#selector(clickViewHistory) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:myButton];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"AL_RX_Icon.png"];
myButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[myButton setImage:myImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
myButton.showsTouchWhenHighlighted = YES;
myButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, myImage.size.width, myImage.size.height);
[myButton addTarget:self action:#selector(clickViewCustomPopView2) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:myButton];
[buttons addObject:bi];
[bi release];
myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"AL_User_Icon.png"];
myButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[myButton setImage:myImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
myButton.showsTouchWhenHighlighted = YES;
myButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, myImage.size.width, myImage.size.height);
[myButton addTarget:self action:#selector(clickViewCustomPopView:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
bi = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:myButton];
[buttons addObject:bi];
popButton = myButton;
[bi release];
// stick the buttons in the toolbar
[tools setItems:buttons animated:NO];
[buttons release];
// and put the toolbar in the nav bar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:tools];
[tools release];
hope that help

Create a button as
UIBarButtonItem *logoutButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"logout.png"]
style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain
target:self action:#selector(doLogout)];
Add this button to right of navigation bar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = logoutButton;
or add this button to left side of navigation bar
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = logoutButton;
doLogout is a function which will be called on touch logout button
I achieved my task by using the following code :
UIToolbar *tools=[[UIToolbar alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 150, 44)];
tools.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
[tools setTranslucent:YES];
UIBarButtonItem *optionBtn=[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"Options" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(optionPressed:)];
UIBarButtonItem *doneBtn=[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"Done" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(donePressed:)];
NSArray *buttons=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:optionBtn,doneBtn, nil];
[tools setItems:buttons animated:NO];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem=[[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithCustomView:tools];
NOTE:From IOS 5.0 onwards, apple has done it lot easier . It can be done as
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItems=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:optionBtn,doneBtn, nil];
Create a custom view with two buttons and use UIBarButtonItem's initWithCustomView: initializer. That should do it.
How to Create multiple bar button in navigation bar?
From iOS 5 onwards, you can now do it using setLeftBarButtonItems:animated: or setRightBarButtonItems:animated:
You must use UIToolbar and set the toolbar with buttons:
// create a toolbar where we can place some buttons
UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 45)];
[toolbar setBarStyle: UIBarStyleBlackOpaque];
// create an array for the buttons
NSMutableArray *buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:3];
// create a standard save button
UIBarButtonItem *saveButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemSave
target:self
action:#selector(saveAction:)];
saveButton.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
[buttons addObject:saveButton];
// create a spacer between the buttons
UIBarButtonItem *spacer = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace
target:nil
action:nil];
[buttons addObject:spacer];
// create a standard delete button with the trash icon
UIBarButtonItem *deleteButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemTrash
target:self
action:#selector(deleteAction:)];
deleteButton.style = UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered;
[buttons addObject:deleteButton];
// put the buttons in the toolbar and release them
[toolbar setItems:buttons animated:NO];
// place the toolbar into the navigation bar
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithCustomView:toolbar];
you have to create a view with as much button you required and have to add them on navigation button like following :
UIView *parentView1 = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 60, 44)];
UIButton *infoButton1 = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 6, 30, 32)];
[infoButton1 setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed: #"navbtn.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[infoButton1 setTitle:#"Back" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
infoButton1.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:13.0f];
infoButton1.titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[infoButton1 addTarget:self action:#selector(backBarButtonClicked) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[parentView1 addSubview:infoButton1];
[infoButton1 release];
UIButton *infoButton2 = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 6, 30, 32)];
[infoButton2 setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed: #"navbtn.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[infoButton2 setTitle:#"Back" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
infoButton2.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:13.0f];
infoButton2.titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[infoButton2 addTarget:self action:#selector(backBarButtonClicked) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[parentView1 addSubview:infoButton2];
[infoButton2 release];
UIBarButtonItem *customBarButtomItem1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:parentView1];
[parentView1 release];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = customBarButtomItem1;
[customBarButtomItem1 release];`enter code here`
I know this question was already closed, but I find that the UIToolbar solution doesn't match visually.
If you instead use a second UINavigationBar set with a UINavigationItem that has a title of nil and the desired buttons you can add more buttons and have a bar that visually matches the original.
For iOS7 and higher, this is the right way to do it. No need for UIToolbar silliness.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];

UIBarButtonItem *three = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithTitle:#"Three" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:#selector(testMethod)];
// create a spacer
UIBarButtonItem *space = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFixedSpace target:self action:nil];
space.width = 30;
NSArray *buttons = #[one, space, two, space, three];
