iOS 7 : Disable UINavigationBar Translucency For Entire App

Question

Is there a way to disable UINavigationBar Translucency for an entire application?

I\'m aware that using [self.navigationController.navigationBar setTranslucent

Answer 1

Adding this in case anyones still battling this.

You can fool it though by specifying a non exist image, which will make the nav bar INCLUDING it's tool bar go opaque

[[UIToolbar appearance] setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:219.0/255.0 green:67.0/255.0 blue:67.0/255.0 alpha:1.0]];

[[UIToolbar appearance] setBackgroundImage:[[UIImage alloc] init] forToolbarPosition:UIBarPositionAny barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

Answer 2

If you don't use storyboard, but IB, set the navigation bar style of your MainWindows.xib to NOT translucent and set as color not the clear color.

Answer 3

Here is a Swift solution if you want to apply this Styling to the whole app.

in the AppDelegate class add this to the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:

For Swift 2:

UINavigationBar.appearance().translucent = false

For Swift 3+:

UINavigationBar.appearance().isTranslucent = false
