![]() Today we see how we could add a little feature in your tab bar to make it more vivid to the user. If is selected we change to the bold font and a little bigger, else just set the regular font with a smaller size. After that, Mark 2 will be used to set the right font to the right TabBarItem. Mark 1 as stated earlier is necessary because the first time the APP opens. So imagine that you have a UITabBarController called MainTabViewController you can add the selection feature using this: If you only override the selectedViewController when the app opens, it will not modify the font of the default selected item. ![]() We need to override two variables the selectedIndex and the selectedViewController. To achieve that we need to make two adjustments to the UITabBarController. If you look closely the selected item label is bigger and bold.

He was a controversial French painter, who bridged the gap between Romanticism and the Impressionist school of painters. This is The River Plaisir Fontaine an 1865 painting from Gustave Courbet. Special shoutout for this week’s supporter: Tom – You are awesome! So if I miss some weekly posts until I am completely set up in a new country, take my beforehand apologies. The good thing is that I’ll be fulfilling a long-time dream to move to Europe (now I’m in Brazil), the bad thing is that my wife and IHAVE A LOT to do before immigration. I got a new job in the Netherlands as an iOS Developer □□□. The problem is that the default UITabBarItem doesn’t behave as much as we expected and when we have to custom his attributes so this post is about one problem I found with them. UITabBarController is a very handy component when you want to flat the navigation of your app. We will explore an easy but tricky problem about tab bar controllers. This week I was challenged on How to change the Tab Bar Item font when selected in Swift. ![]()
