UISearchBar not displaying correct tintColor

Question

If i add my UISearchBar without referencing it to a UISearchDisplayController, my tintColor is displayed correctly.

searchBar.barTintColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:200.0f/255.0f green:21.0f/255.0f blue:26.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];

But if i reference my UISearchBar to a UISearchDisplayController the color seems different...

searchBar = [[UISearchBar alloc] init];
[searchBar setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:200.0f/255.0f green:21.0f/255.0f blue:26.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];
searchBar.delegate = self;
searchBar.searchBarStyle = UISearchBarStyleProminent;
searchBar.placeholder = @"Buscar restaurantes o platillos";
searchBar.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocapitalizationTypeNone;

searchController = [[UISearchDisplayController alloc] initWithSearchBar:searchBar contentsController:self];
    searchController.delegate = self;

self.tableView.tableHeaderView = searchBar;

My tintColor settings on my AppDelegate are

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:200.0f/255.0f green:21.0f/255.0f blue:26.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];
[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:@{NSForegroundColorAttributeName : [UIColor whiteColor]}];
[[UIToolbar appearance] setBarTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:200.0f/255.0f green:21.0f/255.0f blue:26.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];
self.window.tintColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleLightContent];
self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:200.0f/255.0f green:21.0f/255.0f blue:26.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];

Besides that also when my UISearchBar is referenced to my UISearchDisplayController and i tap on the search field... on the transition the background of the Status bar is white.

Any ideas?

i'm Using iOS7

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

you can set image in searcher. It will work for searchbar.

[[UISearchBar appearance] setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"red"]];
