UIToolbar tintColor and barTintColor issues

Question

I have code like so:

UIView *colorView = [[UIView alloc] init];
colorView.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, self.view.frame.size.width, 64.0);
colorView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
//colorView.tintColor = [UIColor blackColor];

UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] init];
toolbar.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, self.view.frame.size.width, 44.0);

self.view addSubview:colorView];
[self.view addSubview:toolbar];

Why does the toolbar subview have a different color then my view? The view appears black and the toolbar appears light gray? Is there a blur or something causing this?

Answer 1

Behavior from some of the properties of UINavigationBar has changed from iOS 7. I have already explained this thing in my Answer.

Take a look at the Bar style for iOS 6 and iOS 7 :

You can note two points here :

1. You can change the Bar style to translucent dark instead of translucent light (default).
2. You can change the translucent property to NO from YES (default).
