Change tint color / font color of Done / Cancel buttons

[nneuberger1]

I'd like to change the font color of the text on the picker "Cancel" and "Done" buttons. How can they be changed directly.

My application typically has black menus with white text on the menu.

I'm calling the following:

[ActionSheetStringPicker showPickerWithTitle:@"A-Trapezoidal (A-Trap)" rows:self.atrapNamesArray initialSelection:0 target:self successAction:@selector(atrapWasSelected:element:) cancelAction:@selector(actionPickerCancelled:) origin:self.view];

I do have a workaround by calling this line of code, but it causes havoc elsewhere inside my app. i end up putting this in multiple locations and switching the UIColor to do it.

UIBarButtonItem *barButtonAppearance = [UIBarButtonItem appearance];
[barButtonAppearance setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]];

I'd be fine with changing the background color as an alternative.

Hi. There is no support to choose tint color yet.

If you want to set custom tint color for buttons - you can implement your own buttons and replace default buttons with your own by methods: setCancelButton: and setDoneButton:

+1 yeah this is a must have feature I think

[jruston]

Also would very much appreciate this.

@rustanacexd , @jrustonapps ok, I reopen this issue, since there is at least 3 person mention about this.. I can't promise, that I will implement it in near future, but I'm open for a pull requests and you can implement this feature by yourself also. (as I mention above by methods: setCancelButton: and setDoneButton: )

A working workaround you can use is to set a tint color to the main window that hosts the actionpicker, in the SWActionSheet.m file as follows:

- (UIWindow *)window
{
    if ( SWActionSheetWindow )
    {
        return SWActionSheetWindow;
    }
    else
    {
        return SWActionSheetWindow = ({
            UIWindow *window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[UIScreen mainScreen].bounds];
            window.windowLevel        = UIWindowLevelAlert;
            window.backgroundColor    = [UIColor clearColor];

            // Window Tint Color.
            [window setTintColor:[UIColor whatEverColor]];

            window.rootViewController = [SWActionSheetVC new];
            window;
        });
    }
}

PS. This will set the tint color of the default buttons in every single instance of actionsheetpicker in your project.

You can set the color for a single button by using setTitleTextAttiributes. Here is the example

    UIBarButtonItem *barButtonNext1 = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
                                       initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Next", nil)
                                       style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain
                                       target:self
                                       action:@selector(genderNextTapped:element:)];

    [barButtonNext1 setTitleTextAttributes:@{NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor blackColor]} forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [self.pickerGender setDoneButton:barButtonNext1];

+1, I'd love to have this feature too without to have override the native buttons.

[zerodiff]

For what it's worth, another workaround is to override this method from AbstractActionSheetPicker in whatever subclass of a subclass you can create to set whatever color you want:

- (UIBarButtonItem *)createButtonWithType:(UIBarButtonSystemItem)type target:(id)target action:(SEL)buttonAction
{
    UIBarButtonItem *barButton = [super createButtonWithType:type target:target action:buttonAction];
    barButton.tintColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    return barButton;
}

This will keep the default button behavior but change the styles. Of course, you could also make a property of your subclass, etc. I know people are all about composition over inheritance, but hackers gotta hack.

In any case, this a very useful library and saves a lot of time.

+1, I was just told to change the tint color.

ActionSheetStringPicker does not conform to the UIAppearanceContainer protocol
+1 would be nice have this protocol to set same colours for all pickers in app

Hooray, guys! Please welcome version 2.2.0. Now you can use toolbarButtonsColor to easily setup color of toolbar buttons! As well as toolbarBackgroundColor property to setup background color! 🎉

It would still be nice to set the font without having to override the button completely. If you do provide a custom button, do the doneBlock and cancel closures still get called? I ask because UIBarButtonItems ask for a target and action (a selector).

[tbaranes]

Yes, you don't have to set a selector to your custom UIBarButtonItem if you have a doneBlock set
(same for cancel). The block will be called.
