Question

I am working on UISearchBar which I have created programmatically. Below is what I am having an issue with:

How can I get rid of that line on this search bar?

The code is as following:

[self setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[self setBarStyle:UIBarStyleDefault];
[self setTintColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[self setShowsCancelButton:NO];

Answer 1

You are setting the background color as clearColor. You can remove the background view of UISearchBar instead :

for(UIView *view in [searchBar subviews]){
    if([view isKindOfClass:NSClassFromString(@"UISearchBarBackground")]){
        [view removeFromSuperview];
    }
}

// in the above code in place of "searchBar" you have to use "self"
