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
I usually add or change the back button in viewDidLoad of the UIViewController.
Something like that should work:
let leftButton = UIBarButtonItem(title: "Back", style: UIBarButtonItemStyle.Plain, target: self, action: "closeView:")
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = leftButton
Don't forget to change and implement the function that it's called to close the view.
Even easier, just change the title:
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem.title = "Back"
