How can I change the font color of a UIBarButton item?

Question

I want to change the color to red.

Answer 1

I found a simpler way to just change the color of title: iOS7:

UIBarButtonItem *button =   [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Title"                                    style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered                                   target:nil                                   action:nil]; [button setTitleTextAttributes:           [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:                 [UIColor redColor], NSForegroundColorAttributeName,nil]                                              forState:UIControlStateNormal]; 

and prior iOS7:

UIBarButtonItem *button =    [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Title"                                     style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered                                    target:nil                                    action:nil]; [button setTitleTextAttributes:           [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:                 [UIColor redColor], UITextAttributeTextColor,nil]                                      forState:UIControlStateNormal];
