Nav Bar

Is there a way to have a png image appear in the top nav bar instead of text? And also, is there a way to have a png image as the background of a menu list button instead of a color.

Like your previous post, all of this is possible, just depends on how much hacking around you want, and are capable of doing. The BT software is modularized for flexibility. This is good and bad. Example: All the screens call the same method to set the nav. bar text, style, buttons, etc. If all the screens call the same method to build the nav. bar it would be tough to then use an image on 'one screen and not 'all the screens' Hope this makes sense. Scroll through BT_viewUtilities.m and you'll see where interface parts are setup. Again, not sure where your talent level is? Backgrounds: Same as above. THe screens are setup to allow backgrounds (as you probably already realize). Menu-items are created in classes that don't exect background images. They expect an optional icon, title, description. You can freely change this stuff but I worry that if you do you would have to constantly modify your app if you downloaded a new version. You can do LOTS with background images, transparent lists, rows, etc. Not trying to discourage, just trying to help.
