Set Image Underlay of Transparent Navigation Bar and Status Bar in Swift iOS 8

Question

I am new in iOS swift development and I am facing a problem. I want to set transparent navigation bar and make image underlay of transparent navigation bar and status bar li

Answer 1

I solved this by setting transparent UIColor for status bar background.

    guard  let statusBar = UIApplication.sharedApplication().valueForKey("statusBarWindow")?.valueForKey("statusBar") as? UIView else {
                return
            }
            statusBar.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 2, green: 200.0, blue: 200, alpha: 0) // color value has no effect. Only alpha value is needed to make it transparent
