Make custom selected tab bar Item in iOS Swift

Question

I am working on an application using Swift which needs to have a TabBarController and when user will select a tab then that particular tab bar item shows a 3d visual effect (Although it will be an static image I guess) which contains shadow and that tab bar item will be bigger in size as well with different tint colour.

Please see the attached image.

I have searched a lot on internet but no luck. Please someone help :(

Answer 1

Use http://cocoapods.org/pods/M13InfiniteTabBar

For as much as I do not like answers in the tone It can't be done , I feel that the specific of your screenshot, namely going outside of the UITabbar background, can't be done with UITabBarController .

Answer 2

You can use -initWithTitle:image:selectedImage: . Documentation found here
