Fullscreen UIView with Status bar and Navigation Bar overlay on the top
Objective CIphoneObjective C Problem Overview
What is the proper way to implement the status bar and navigation bar that go on top of an UIView?
Objective C Solutions
Solution 1 - Objective C
Just set “wants fullscreen layout” in your view controller. That solves the problem for me.
self.wantsFullScreenLayout = YES;
Solution 2 - Objective C
In the screenshot above, there's a translucent status bar and a translucent navigation bar.
The status bar is set using
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle: UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent];
The navigation bar is set using
theNavigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
Solution 3 - Objective C
If you have a view controller inside a navigation controller, and you want to hide the status bar in order to have your viewController's view in full screen, you can always call :
[self.navigationController.view setNeedsLayout];
after hiding the status bar. But I personally think
[self setWantsFullScreenLayout:YES];
is a better way.
Solution 4 - Objective C
The best way I came up was this: when using a "complex" hierarchy of Tab bar containing navigation controllers, with one "detail" view being a full screen view.
In the app delegate just before the tab bar controller's view is added to the window, I added this:
tabBarController.view.frame = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
This will make the tab bar controller cover the entire screen, even below the area of the status bar. I had to offset heights of several views to +20px, notably the navigation bars.
Solution 5 - Objective C
Set the statusbar style as black translucent and navigation bar style as black translucent. If you are using a navigation-based application, in the MainWindow.xib check the status bar is hidden and navigation bar is hidden checkboxes.
When the user touches the screen, start a timer to see if this was a single tap or double tap. If a single tap, make the statusbar and navbar hidden = NO. and once user activity stops, start a timer again. after some time of no activity, make them hidden again.
Solution 6 - Objective C
step 1 Set the UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance to No in the plist
Then add the following code in did finish launch option
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 7) {
[application setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleLightContent];
self.window.clipsToBounds =YES;
self.window.frame = CGRectMake(0,20,self.window.frame.size.width,self.window.frame.size.height-20);
}
Please follow this code it worked for me
