and

The only problem is that the image for the SELECTED states does not show. It just shows blank. Anyone else have this issue? Please see the screenshots below of the results:

Thanks!!!

Answer 1

So the way to go around this:

1. Set the tab with the default, unselected icon image you want to use in the "BAR ITEM" section in the Attributes Inspector:

2. Click on the Identity Inspector, and under "USER DEFINED RUNTIME ATTRIBUTES," click the + to add a new value.

KEYPATH: selectedImage (IT HAS TO BE THIS!!!)

TYPE: Image

VALUE: The name of your selected/highlighted icon image. I use Images.xcassets for my image assets.

Run your app. You'll notice that the image changes to the selected (not just highlighted version of it.

Works like a charm.
