iOS tip: How to change a navigation bar colour
UINavigationController *navC = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:startVC]; navC.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:130/255.0 green:60/255.0 blue:35/255.0 alpha:1.0];
iOS tip: Transparent table cells
Here is a simple yet poweful iOS development trick. All you need to do to make your table cells transparent is to replace the cell’s background view.
UIView *bgV = [[[UIView alloc] init] autorelease]; bgV.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:216/255.0 green:195/255.0 blue:164/255.0 alpha:1.0]; bgV.alpha = 0.4; cell.selectedBackgroundView = bgV; [bgV release];
