iOS: Navigation bar with images for buttons

Question

I would like to create a NavigationBar with images as buttons on the right side of the NavigationBar.

Something like below Snapshot

Answer 1

I use a category for this:

UIBarButtonItem+WithImageOnly.h:

#import 

@interface UIBarButtonItem (WithImageOnly)

- (id)initWithImageOnly:(UIImage*)image target:(id)target action:(SEL)action;

@end

UIBarButtonItem+WithImageOnly.m:

#import "UIBarButtonItem+WithImageOnly.h"

@implementation UIBarButtonItem (WithImageOnly)

- (id)initWithImageOnly:(UIImage *)image target:(id)target action:(SEL)action {    
    CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, image.size.width, image.size.height);
    frame = CGRectInset(frame, -5, 0);

    UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
    [button setImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [button addTarget:target action:action forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

    return [self initWithCustomView:button];
}

@end

Usage:

UIBarButtonItem *button = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithImageOnly:[UIImage imageNamed:@"image"] target:self action:@selector(someAction:)]
