iOS 13 Navigation Bar Large Title Issue

Question

I am trying to show a large Title in a Navigation bar , but with clear background. When scrolled up, it will be the Navigation bar with a blur effect.

This looks correct, however, when scrolling, the animation seems to be broken. Also, transition gets stuck from time to time:

My code as follows:

UINavigationController :

override func viewDidLoad() {
   super.viewDidLoad()

   if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {

      self.navigationBar.prefersLargeTitles = true

      let style = UINavigationBarAppearance()
      style.configureWithDefaultBackground()

      style.titleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 18)]

      self.navigationBar.standardAppearance = style
      self.navigationBar.compactAppearance = style


      //Configure Large Style
      let largeStyle = UINavigationBarAppearance()
      largeStyle.configureWithTransparentBackground()

      largeStyle.largeTitleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 28)]

      self.navigationBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = largeStyle

   }
}

The UITableView is inside the UINavigationController . Both are from storyboards via a segue way.

Instead of UITableview, You can try using UITableViewController. I have tried using UITableViewController and its working fine for me. Please check the following design and code.

class ViewController: UITableViewController
{
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
          if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
                  self.navigationController?.navigationBar.prefersLargeTitles = true
                  let style = UINavigationBarAppearance()
                  style.configureWithDefaultBackground()
                  style.titleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 18)]
                  self.navigationController?.navigationBar.standardAppearance = style
                  self.navigationController?.navigationBar.compactAppearance = style
                  //Configure Large Style
                  let largeStyle = UINavigationBarAppearance()
                  largeStyle.configureWithTransparentBackground()
                  largeStyle.largeTitleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 28)]
                  self.navigationController?.navigationBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = largeStyle
              }
        self.tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "Cell")
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }

    override func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
        1
    }
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        10
    }
    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell", for: indexPath)
        cell.textLabel?.text = "\(indexPath.row)"
        return cell
    }
}

hey How are you here is your code try to remove this line

    largeStyle.configureWithTransparentBackground()

you have to configure with white background

your code:

    override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {

  self.navigationBar.prefersLargeTitles = true

  let style = UINavigationBarAppearance()
  style.configureWithDefaultBackground()

  style.titleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 18)]

  self.navigationBar.standardAppearance = style
  self.navigationBar.compactAppearance = style


  //Configure Large Style
  let largeStyle = UINavigationBarAppearance()
  largeStyle.configureWithTransparentBackground()

  largeStyle.largeTitleTextAttributes = [.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 28)]

  self.navigationBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = largeStyle

  }
 }

Debug - 1) In view debugger, check if navigation title goes beyond navigation bar bounds.

If this is case then

let titleHeight = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 28).lineHeight
if titleHeight > self.view.frame.size.height {
   self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.size.width, titleHeight + topAndBottomPadding)
}
