No text on the tab bar - just icons

Hi All, I've searched the forums and couldn't find a solution! Is there a way to have just icons in the tab bar and no text at all? cheers Darrel

under the laout section, and the tabbed layout section. just remove anything thats typed into 'Label' and just leave the icon name. That should do it?

Thanks @Bonzo, But it comes up with some generic text (which I can't remember at the moment!) Something like "no label" or such text. I tried adding a space or 2 but no luck.

i only work with xcode, so hopefully you are also. in BT_application.m search for //initialize a navigation controller using the view controller comment out the following line [thisTabsNavController.tabBarItem setTitle:textLabel]; so it should look like this //[thisTabsNavController.tabBarItem setTitle:textLabel]; let me know if this works...

No code mod required, works for Android and iOS: control + space is a 'hard' space, and will suffice. Cheers! -- Smug

Thanks guys ... I was thinking non-breaking space   and thought that I had read it some where on the forums but couldn't find it. Good stuff! Buzztouch forums to the rescue again :)) I'll look into the code from @bonzo for increasing the image size of the icon in the tab bar as well. Cheers

That worked ... I used option(alt) space. Now who knows how to change the tint color? Back to the BT knowledge bank (forums & users!) Cheers
