Unchanged barTintColor UINavigationBar on iOS 13.4

Question

After upgrading Xcode to Version 11.4 (11E146) on iOS 13.4 barTintColor only changes through the storyboard. In the code, changes are ignored.

self.navigationController.navigationBar.barTintColor = UIColor.redColor;

Also a problem with the color of the title.

Fixed in Xcode 11.4.1:

Answer 1

I was having the same issue, what fixed it for me was this:

On the storyboard, for your Navigation Controller change the "Bar Tint" to its "Default" value, then on your code you can change it as you normally would.

    // For the navigation bar
    navigationController?.navigationBar.barTintColor = .red

    // For the title
    let attributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.white ]
    navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = attributes

I have the code in viewDidLoad()

Oddly enough for me, it also fixed the issue I was having with the "Status Bar".
