UIToolbar is not translucent in iOS 7

Question

I'm making an UIToolbar above keyboard and it doesn't have blur effect in iOS 7, it's just grey. I've tried to change alpha value, backgroundColor, explicit YES to translucent, but it all didn't work. Appreciate any help!

Answer 1

You could try this:

[toolbar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent];
[toolbar setBarTintColor:[UIColor yellowColor]];
[self.toolbar setTranslucent:YES];

it should work then you can tweak bar tint color and adding the alpha component if you like.
