I am creating a custom tab bar for my iPhone app and I need to change the images. I have changed the actual tab bar background, but I need to know how to add custom images for the icons and their respective “selected” icons. I also need to remove the square highlight that is default. Pretty much, it just needs to be my icons. Also wondering if the images can be coloured or not. I’ve looked a lot of this, but no one seems to have the solution.
Someone please help.
No. You cannot customise the tab bar icons in the UITabBar.
They are designed to be used with an alpha masked image.
Someone discovered a way to hack the colours though here: Custom colors in UITabBar
