Setting a title to a UIToolBar in IOS 7

Question

I have a UIToolBar button declared below:

UIToolbar *toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] init];
toolbar.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, self.view.frame.size.width, 64.0);

I also have a UIBarButtonItem that gets added in on the left as a back button. But how do I just add a centered label title to the UIToolbar?

Answer 1

Create a UILabel and add it as an item of the toolbar:

UIBarButtonItem *toolBarTitle = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:myLabel];

If you want to center it, add flexible spaces on the sides:

UIBarButtonItem *flexible = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:nil action:nil]
