Change color of translucent black UINavigationBar

Question

I stumbled upon this many times, never found a solution. A UINavigationController\'s navigationBar can be set to black translucent like:

self.navigationContr         


        

Answer 1

To mimic more accurately the translucent effect, meaning that only the background of the navbar is translucent, and the buttons, title and everything else are opaque, you can do like this:

self.navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;
[(UIView*)[self.navigationController.navigationBar.subviews objectAtIndex:0] setAlpha:0.7f];
