I know I should go at the BT_viewUtilities.m and change some code to any of the standard buttons code. But I can't figure out the right code for this... thanks in advance!

In your plugin screen where you want the button image, choose an action that you don't want... In this example, we're going to get rid of our 'fast forward' right button choice... So, in your plugin control panel, choose right nav button type of 'fast forward', and the screen you want it to transition to, and all that... Then, in BT_viewUtilities.m go to line 376 or so... It will have a Looooong line that says: if([rightButtonType isEqualToString:@"fastForward"]) theBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFastForward target:theViewController action:@selector(navRightTap) ]; and replace it with this: if([rightButtonType isEqualToString:@"fastForward"]) theBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"yourProperlyAddedImage.png"] style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:theViewController action:@selector(navRightTap)]; You won't be able to use Fast Forward as 'fast forward' anymore, but if that's a problem you can easily substitute one of the other commands... this one was easy because it's at the bottom...

Posts: 6316 Reg: Nov 07, 2012 Tamuning, GU 81,410	06/12/13 12:57 AM (10 years ago) In your plugin screen control panel, there is almost always a way to assign the right nav button... and there is a drop down box of choices... 'fast forward' is one of those choices... You'll know it when you see it.
