UIAlertController tint color defaults to blue on highlight

Question

I\'m use the following code to present a UIAlertController action sheet with the item text as red. I\'ve used the tint property to set the color.

UIAlertCont         


        

Answer 1

To prevent the fast "popping up" of the new tint color the alpha value of the alert controller can be animated. Then it looks exactly the same as if there where no bug:

    alertController.view.alpha = 0.0
    presentViewController(alertController, animated: false) {
        alertController.view.tintColor = UIColor.redColor()
        UIView.animateWithDuration(0.2, animations: { alertController.view.alpha = 1.0 }, completion: nil)
    }
