uinavigationbar - iOS 7 | Navigation bar / Toolbar buttons very close to status bar

Question

I have a problem when dragging a navigation bar or toolbar (storyboard) to my view controller.

UINavigationBar:

As you can see in the image above, the right button is almost overlapping the status bar.

With a UIToolbar it happens the same:

This view controllers are intended to be used as a Modal, that's the reason I'm not using a UINavigationController.

In another section I use a UINavigationController and it appears as I expect:

How can I drag a UINavigationBar / UIToolbar to a view controller without overlapping the status bar?

Answer 1

The navigation bars or toolbars have to be at (0, viewController.topLayoutGuide.length) with bar positioning of UIBarPositionTopAttached. You should set the delegate of your navigation bar or your toolbar to your view controller, and return UIBarPositionTopAttached. If positioned correctly, you will have the result in your third image.
