I have an app that sometimes needs its navigation bar to blend in with the content.

Does anyone know how to get rid of or to change color of this annoying little ba

I Just created an extension for this... Sorry about formatting (this is my first answer).

Usage:

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    self.navigationController?.hideShadow = true
}

Extension:

 UINavigationController.swift
//  Created by Ricardo López Rey on 16/7/15.

import Foundation


struct UINavigationControllerExtension {
    static var hideShadowKey : String = "HideShadow"
static let backColor = UIColor(red: 247/255, green: 247/255, blue: 248/255, alpha: 1.0)
}

extension UINavigationController {

    var hideShadow : Bool {
        get {
            if let ret =  objc_getAssociatedObject(self, &UINavigationControllerExtension.hideShadowKey) as? Bool {
                return ret
            } else {
                return false
            }


        }
        set {
            objc_setAssociatedObject(self,&UINavigationControllerExtension.hideShadowKey,newValue, objc_AssociationPolicy(OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC))

            if newValue {


            self.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(solidImage(UINavigationControllerExtension.backColor), forBarMetrics: UIBarMetrics.Default)

                self.navigationBar.shadowImage = solidImage(UIColor.clearColor())
            } else {
                self.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(nil, forBarMetrics: UIBarMetrics.Default)
            }
        }
    }

    private func solidImage(color: UIColor, size: CGSize = CGSize(width: 1,height: 1)) -> UIImage {
        var rect = CGRectMake(0, 0, size.width, size.height)
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, 0)
        color.setFill()
        UIRectFill(rect)
        var image: UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        return image
    }
