i have subClass from UIBarButtonItem, when set setBackgroundImage with appearance not working, but create subClass from UIButton set image worked!.

my code:

MyCustomBarButtonItem.appearance().setBackgroundImage(UIImage(named: "back_image"), for: .normal, barMetrics: .default)
Solution

  • you must create subClass from UIButton and assign to customView property in subClass from UIBarButtonItem and set image background to custom UIButton. for more information you can see this post: https://stackoverflow.com/a/66074112/5140621
