Questions tagged [uitoolbar]

A toolbar is a control that displays one or more buttons, called toolbar items. A toolbar momentarily highlights or does not change the appearance of an item when tapped.

A UIToolbar is a bar of buttons in an iOS app. As formally defined by Apple, it is a control that displays one or more buttons, called toolbar items. A toolbar momentarily highlights or does not change the appearance of an item when tapped. Navigation controllers can display toolbars on the bottom of their views and manage the items for their child view controllers. The UIToolbar Class Reference can be found here on Apple's developer page.

The UIToolbar is also part of an important group in the iOS user interface, along with the status bar, navigation bar, tab bar, which all have specifically defined appearances and behaviors in iOS apps.
