I am attempting to change the text color of the status bar from black to white on a Modally Presented View Controller embedded in a Navigation Controller called ChildViewController
I am using the Chameleon framework for colors.
I can change the background color with no issues using:
guard let navBar = navigationController?.navigationBar else {fatalError("Navigation controller does not exist.")}
guard let navBarColour = UIColor(hexString: colourHexCode) else { fatalError()}
navBar.barTintColor = navBarColour
navBar.tintColor = ContrastColorOf(navBarColour, returnFlat: true)
navBar.largeTitleTextAttributes = [.foregroundColor : ContrastColorOf(navBarColour, returnFlat: true)]
I have tried multiple combination of the below in viewWillAppear & viewDidLoad in ChildViewController
self.modalPresentationCapturesStatusBarAppearance = true
UIApplication.shared.statusBarStyle = .lightContent
setNeedsStatusBarAppearanceUpdate()
setStatusBarStyle(.lightContent)
override var preferredStatusBarStyle: UIStatusBarStyle {
return .lightContent
}
I have even tried Chameleons own self.setStatusBarStyle(UIStatusBarStyleContrast) but again nothing is working.
In my Info.plist I have:
View controller-based status bar appearance = YES
And in the General Project settings under Deployment Info the Status Bar Style is set to Default
Targeting iOS 11.4 with Swift 4.1
What am I doing wrong?
