Picker options show in simulator, but not on a device

[raysarebest]

I'm making an app in Swift, and when invoking my instance of RMPickerViewController in the simulator, all goes well, but when I run it on my iPhone 5s on iOS 8.1.1 (built with the iOS 8.2 SDK), none of the options in the picker show, and I'm left with a blank square

Are you using the black version of RMPickerViewController?

[raysarebest]

I'm setting the blurEffectStyle to .Dark, if that's what you mean

[CooperRS]

Yes, that is what I mean.

That's a bug on Apples side. The simulator supports tint colors for the UIDatePicker and UIPickerView while the real devices don't. I already submitted a bug report to Apple (It`s No. 18040667 if you want to reference it).

Any workaround for this?

Just found a solution. You need to use this method from the delegate:

- (NSAttributedString *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView attributedTitleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component;

Example:

- (NSAttributedString *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView attributedTitleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
    NSString *title = @"Picker Value";
    NSAttributedString *attString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:title attributes:@{NSForegroundColorAttributeName:[UIColor whiteColor]}];

return attString;

}

With Swift:

func pickerView(pickerView: UIPickerView, attributedTitleForRow row: Int, forComponent component: Int) -> NSAttributedString? {
    let string = "Picker Value"
    return NSAttributedString(string: myString, attributes: [NSForegroundColorAttributeName:UIColor.whiteColor()])
}

[CooperRS]

Yes, that maybe a working workaround for RMPickerViewController :)

Does not help for RMDateSelectionViewController though, which basically has the same problem in the dark version :/...

it has a bug that content of the pickerView dose not show like something white on it when it is running on swift2.2 xcode7.3 iOS 9.3 .

Same here since iOS 9.3, and I have it on ExtraLight. Is there a workaround for this? I don't necessary need the blur effect if that is what causing the problem. Thanks!

i was facing same issue, i have resolved it with help of @NipulDaki - by change 1 line coding, i given solution to below

At Creation of RMPickerViewController object.

RMPickerViewController *pickerVC = [RMPickerViewController pickerController]; [RMPickerViewController setLocalizedTitleForSelectButton:@"Done"];

* pickerVC.disableBlurEffects=YES; * <-- add this like in your code and RMPickerViewController work without affecting any thing.

Thanks AkshayDegada it work perfectly on iOS 9.3

[Alifar]

@AkshayDegada GREAT!! You saved the day!

@AkshayDegada Thanks a lot :)

This problem should be solved somewhere in between iOS 9 and 10.1.1. It is not present in iOS 10.1.1 anymore :). However, for supporting older versions of iOS, the above workaround should be used.
