Question

Is it possible to make the navigationcontroller title a button? but without a button look to it. I want it to be just text that if you click on it a view/actionsheet pops up from the bottom
If so, can you show me programmatically how I would make it a button?
Thanks

Answer 1

You can set TitleView of navigationItem to set a button as title.

Here is what i tried and got it working:

UIButton*button=[UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
button.frame=CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 20);
[button setTitle:@"Testing" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:@selector(btnAction) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[[self navigationItem] setTitleView:button];

But if you don’t want it to look like a button, you have set the buttonWithType to custom and set its backGroundImage property.

in btnAction have your code to show the pop ups.
