Styling the Navigator

You can style the navigator appearance and behavior by passing a navigatorStyle object. This object can be passed when the screen is originally created; can be defined per-screen by setting static navigatorStyle = {}; on the screen component; and can be overridden when a screen is pushed.

The easiest way to style your screen is by adding static navigatorStyle = {}; to your screen React component definition.

export default class StyledScreen extends Component {
  static navigatorStyle = {
    drawUnderNavBar: true,
    navBarTranslucent: true
  };
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <View style={{flex: 1}}>...</View>
     );
  }

Setting styles dynamically

Use the setStyle method to change a screen’s style dynamically.

this.props.navigator.setStyle({
  navBarBackgroundColor: 'blue'
});

Styling the StatusBar

If you set any styles related to the Status Bar, make sure that in Xcode > project > Info.plist, the property View controller-based status bar appearance is set to YES.

Custom fonts

If you’d like to use a custom font, you’ll first have to your project.

• Android - add the .ttf or .otf files to src/main/assets/fonts/

• iOS - follow this guide

All supported styles are defined here. There’s also an example project there showcasing all the different styles.
