Xlpagertabstrip: ButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController selectedBarBackgroundColor won't change

[MahmoudTarek]

Hello,
Here's my code:
`
override func viewDidLoad() {
buttonBarView.backgroundColor = .white
settings.style.buttonBarBackgroundColor = .white
settings.style.buttonBarItemBackgroundColor = .white
settings.style.buttonBarItemTitleColor = UIColor(netHex: 0x8c8c8c)
settings.style.selectedBarBackgroundColor = UIColor.black
settings.style.selectedBarHeight = 5
super.viewDidLoad()
}

`

Every option of these is working fine apart from selectedBarBackgroundColor which won't get applied as you see here, I've created the buttonBarView as explained in issue #253

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It's not working in the example as well.

I think you need some space for selectedbar.

In my case, I have space with buttonbarview and container view

like this,

If i want to help

[MahmoudTarek]

Thanks for your help, unfortunately this did not make the selected bar appear.

[JayHan-K]

if i can see your code and storyboard,
i can more help to you.

[MahmoudTarek]

Here's everything, thanks for your interest.

I think you need more space for selectedbar
and it seem to use the constraints.
have a control the space! ^^

[MahmoudTarek]

I added enough space between buttonBarView and containerView (around 100px) and it still changed nothing.

[JayHan-K]

can you make new git??
if you make new git project and sharing to me.
i can check the problem

[MahmoudTarek]

If you'd share your code for this controller and screenshots of the storyboard that'd be easier, thanks man.

I am also facing the same issue. Creating a constraint of Empty space in between the buttonBarView and my Container did not ending up showing the selected bar.

[MahmoudTarek]

UPDATE
selectedBar appears if you clear the controller's constrains (keep it without constrains)
Waiting for a fix.

If you want to use autolayout, see this issue:
https://github.com/xmartlabs/XLPagerTabStrip/issues/229

The solution:
after ViewDidLoad

add below code , it works to me

self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
buttonBarView.selectedBar.frame.origin.y = buttonBarView.frame.size.height - settings.style.selectedBarHeight

[MahmoudTarek]

Worked fine, thank you so much.
