using image or tint color on uinavigationbar in iphone?

Question

how do i show a background image on a navigation bar or give tint color to the navigation bar in a native iphone application??

Answer 1

For the iOS5 and iOS6 I've used this solutions and it worked perfectly, Making a Universal UINavigationBar Background Image.

iPhone Retina Portrait 640px x 88px / iPhone Non-Retina Portrait 320px x 44px

Inside AppDelegate.m

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions

Place this code

// Set the status bar to black color.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque animated:NO];

// Change @"menubar.png" to the file name of your image.
UIImage *navBar = [UIImage imageNamed:@"menubar.png"];

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setBackgroundImage:navBar forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

Don't forget to change the image name (menubar.png)
