make transparent navigation bar and transparent tab bar in ios 7.

Question

how to create a transparent tab bar and navigation bar in ios 7 ? i tried setting

[[UITabBar appearance]setBarTintColor:[UIColor clearColor]];

but then a translucent tab bar appears. then i tried setting the translucency property of tab bar to NO

[self.tabBarController.tabBar setTranslucent:NO];

also the tab button is always highlighted in blue color. Even though i put different color images . has anyone had similar experiences ? observed only in ios7

Please re-word question. It sounds like you are dismissing the results you were looking for. But whatever your meaning, you might try doing a search for iOS 7 bar color. — bilobatum, Oct 15 '13 at 19:10

By default the selected tab button item has highlighted blue color and unselected has gray color. This behavior is a independent of tool bar item image color.

Example to change the selection color for tab Bar item

self.tabController.tabBar.tintColor = [UIColor redColor];

tanks.. it did change the tab item color. Any help on changing the tab bar and navigation bar color transparent? – Dhanesh KM Oct 16 '13 at 04:17
Try this self.tabController.tabBar.barTintColor = [UIColor clearColor];. Hopefully it will solve your problem – Rocker Oct 16 '13 at 04:34
try to play with alpha value. self.tabController.tabBar.alpha = 0.5f; – Rocker Oct 16 '13 at 05:59
