如何为UINavigationBar设置背景图片

/ 2012.9.6更新 （iOS 4 & iOS 5 均适用）

针对局部NavigationBar进行背景更改的方法：

float version = [[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue];
UIImage *backgroundImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"myBackgroundImage.png"];
if (version >= 5.0) {
    [self.navigationController.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:backgroundImage forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
}
else
{
    [self.navigationController.navigationBar insertSubview:[[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:backgroundImage] autorelease] atIndex:1];
}

以下是全局更改NavigationBar背景的方法：

/ 2012.2.24更新 （iOS 4 & iOS 5 均适用）

- (UIImage *)barBackground
{
    return [UIImage imageNamed:@"topNavigationBar.png"];
}

- (void)didMoveToSuperview
{
    //iOS5 only
    if ([self respondsToSelector:@selector(setBackgroundImage:forBarMetrics:)])
    {
        [self setBackgroundImage:[self barBackground] forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    }
}

//this doesn't work on iOS5 but is needed for iOS4 and earlier
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect
{
    //draw image
    [[self barBackground] drawInRect:rect];
}

@end

/ iOS 5之前的解决方法，在iOS 5中已经不再适用

在iPhone开发中, 有时候我们想给导航条添加背景图片, 实现多样化的导航条效果, 用其他方法往往无法达到理想的效果, 经过网上搜索及多次实验, 确定如下最佳实现方案:

 

为UINavigatonBar增加如下Category:

@implementation UINavigationBar (CustomImage) - (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect { UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"NavigationBar.png"]; [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)]; } @end 

 

例如, 在我的项目中, 添加如下代码:

 

/ /* input: The image and a tag to later identify the view */ @implementation UINavigationBar (CustomImage) - (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect { UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @"title_bg.png"]; [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)]; } @end / @implementation FriendsPageViewController // Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib. - (void)viewDidLoad { self.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor purpleColor]; [self initWithRootViewController:[[RegPageViewController alloc] init]]; [super viewDidLoad]; } ...... 

 

实现的效果如下图:
