back button

Okay, I'm sure this is simple and yes I've read forum posts about it… Is the back button on a screen regulated in the nav bar section? I can't seem to make the back button appear on a menu simple, or mac image screens. Thanks for any help! Sarah

If it's the first screen on a tab bar it won't appear, hopefully it's that simple. the button is created from the BT_viewcontroller it automatically puts a back button if that view controller/screen has been pushed.

Hmm… 'Typically' you have a 'home' screen, which will usually have a 'refresh data' button… But all screens leading off of the home screen menu 'should' have a 'back' button regardless of the kind of screen it is. Can you explain a bit more about your situation? Android/iOS? PC or Macintosh? do you have any log files that can show us what's going on? Cheers! -- Smug

Ok, I'm on a Mac, and the home screen does have the refresh. The next screen is another menu (button), and each button loads an image. I'd like to have each image screen with the back button at the top, to return to the menu button screen. It's funny, because when I click where the back button should be, I can briefly see a ghost of the word "back" before it returns to the menu, so I know it's there somewhere- what silly thing am I doing or not doing with the nav bar or something at the top of each image screen??

Right it sounds like the nav bar color is the same as the button text color. Change the nav bar title color to check if it is and you want the button to change color use In view did load method [Self. Navigationitem.leftbutton setTint:[uicolor redColor]]; This code won't be accurate but it's the gust it will auto type as you write it

Yes, simple, that was it! Thanks, Kittsy. I was so proud of myself for just figuring out how to include audio that I got too excited. =)

No probs that was an easy one Let's do a Sherlock Holmes diagnostic It had to be ios app as it had the mac image gallery. As the core code automatically adds a back button It could only be 3 things 1 plugin not included in old 2.0 package . Couldn't be that as you woukd have said nothing was showing 2 the first screen on one of 2,3,4 or 5 tab bar obviously as the refresh would be there on tab 1 and a common mistake 3 finally the nav bar same color as the button must be ios 7. You clinched it when you said it appeared briefly when pressed. This is because pressed navigation buttons change the tint to a darker color to acknowledge a press. Elementary my dear camp girl lol

Haha! Excellent powers of deduction, Mr. Holmes.
