I can't override the default UIBarButtonItem style

[bastos]

If I have a default UIBarButtonItem style in my .nss file and when I call [NUIAppearance init] I can't override those values using another class defined as runtime attribute on the Storyboard.

I've noticed that both NUIBarButtonItemRenderer and NUIAppearance are using setTitleTextAttributes but I could not find the reason why the NUIBarButtonItemRenderer is not overring the default value.

Example:

UIBarButtonItem {
  background-tint-color: @primaryBackgroundTintColor;
  font-name: @secondaryFontNameBold;
  font-color: @primaryFontColor;
  text-shadow-color: clear;
  font-size: 13;
}

MyMenuButton {
  font-color: #ff0000;
  text-shadow-color: clear;    
  font-size: 18;    
  background-tint-color: none;    
}

This is fixed. Bar button items are rendered using UINavigationBar+NUI, and it had been using NUIRenderer instead of going through all of the NUI initialization methods in UIBarButtonItem+NUI, as it should. I've corrected that, and tested the issue you were seeing, and it seems to be working fine now.

The UIBarButtonItem style class has been replaced with BarButton, so you'll want to make that change in your NSS, too.

I'll close this, but if any aspect of it isn't working, just let me know!

Thanks, I'm gonna test it on future projects!

Is there a way to remove the gloss effect for BarButton using NUI?
