UIDatePicker Change color of text of "today" date

Question

I know that this question as been made other times, but with xCode 7 and iOS9.2 is it possible to change the font color of "today" date on a UIDatePicker?

[self.dpData setValue:[UIColor colorWithRed:111/255.0f green:113/255.0f blue:121/255.0f alpha:1.0f] forKeyPath:@"setHighlightsToday"];

I tried this and it crashed, so I know that this don't work.

Any other options that I have, or I really need to build my own DatePicker?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

With some more search I found the solution.

[_dpData setValue:[UIColor colorWithRed:111/255.0f green:113/255.0f blue:121/255.0f alpha:1.0f] forKeyPath:@"textColor"];
SEL selector = NSSelectorFromString( @"setHighlightsToday:" );
NSInvocation *invocation = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature :
                            [UIDatePicker
                             instanceMethodSignatureForSelector:selector]];
BOOL no = NO;
[invocation setSelector:selector];
[invocation setArgument:&no atIndex:2];
[invocation invokeWithTarget:_dpData];

With this solution we can change the color of the text (even today date) without problems.
