Change Color of Button

Hi Guys, Can't seem to get past this code challenge. Not sure what's wrong... Question Now we want to change the color of the text of our navigation bar buttons to white. Use the appearance proxy to change the color using [UIColor whiteColor].

Link: http://teamtreehouse.com/library/styling-the-navigation-bar

My Code

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    UIImage *backgroundImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"navBarBackground"];
    [[UINavigationBar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor redColor]];

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[UIColor whiteColor], UITextAttributeTextColor, nil]];

return YES;
}

Thanks!

Any ideas Amit Bijlani Ben Jakuben

Right before your return, go ahead and use the appearance proxy again on UINavigationBar. use the setTintColor: method to change the color.

remove all of that titleTextAttributes stuff too, it has nothing to do with the questions.

hint: sometimes you have to think outside of the box versus copying from the video.
