1,505 PointsScreen goes black after adding StatusBarStyle to AppDelegate
I'm not sure what went wrong, everything ran properly until I ended up changing the info section to change/add the 'View controller-based status bar' bool to the info list, and then added the
application.setStatusBarStyle(UIStatusBarStyle.LightContent, animated: false)
snippet of code.
Any suggestions/ feedback would be taken kindly. Thank you!

42,016 Pointshave you tried removing that line and verifying that it is indeed the one causing the issue
Gabriel Ruiz
1,505 PointsYes, i've tried removing the line, yet I still have the issue. :'(
Stone Preston
42,016 Pointsalright set the view controller based status bar plist value back to what it was and then see if you still have the issue. If that doesnt work try restarting your simulator/xcode
do you see your app launch at all? like do you see the launch screen?

1,337 PointsI see the launch screen, but I am having the same issue. In the console I see:
```2014-12-21 21:05:00.369 FunFacts[2084:201494] -[UIButton setText:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7f83284525f0 2014-12-21 21:05:00.371 FunFacts[2084:201494] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[UIButton setText:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7f83284525f0'
But I am not calling .text on a button, only a label.
Antonio Cancio
1,337 PointsJust figured this out. I think there is a bug in xcode where if you created an outlet for funFactButton and accidentally named it funFactLabel (Which I did, and maybe others have), Xcode will think that funFactLabel is of type UIButton even after you change the name of the outlet to funFactButton.
The solution for me was to delete both outlets for funFactLabel and funFactButton and create them again by control-dragging from the label and button in the storyboard.

1,780 PointsI am having the same all black issue as you. Im not sure exactly what you are saying above. I deleted both outlets, commented out code that uses them and its still all black. I then tried deleting them and recreating them by the dragging method and it is still all black.

1,337 PointsIf you go on to the video after this it actually talks about "orphaned outlets" and goes into detail on how to properly fix the issue. Have you gone on to the next video debugging?
Anthony Rios
1,780 PointsI did go to the next video but blazed through it just to find how to run with break points...i will check out the entire video and see if that helps.

1,780 PointsSo the problem ended up being in the Fun Facts General tab. The deployment info section has a Main Interface drop down that was blank. I changed it to main and everything works. Im not sure how that got removed but at least its fixed.
