UIProgressView custom track and progress images in iOS 7.1

This is very annoying. I didn't find a way to fix this without subclassing UIProgressView.

Anyway here's how I fixed this: https://gist.github.com/JohnEstropia/9482567

You will have to change occurrences of UIProgressView to JEProgressView, including those in NIBs and storyboards.

Basically, you'd need to force assigning the images directly to the UIProgressView's children UIImageViews.

The subclass is needed to override layoutSubviews, where you adjust the heights of the imageViews according to the image sizes.

You are correct. This bug has been present since 7.1 first made its appearance in Xcode 5.1 seed 1. I submitted (and resubmitted) the same bug for all 5 seeds of Xcode 5.1, and now on Xcode 5.1. But Apple did not fix it.

Please submit this bug too! You may refer to my bug if you like: 15547259. The more the better! I regard this as serious breakage, because it means that an app that was working fine is now broken (if it uses a progress view with a progressImage).

I used John Estropia solution, but it was showing the blu tint bar in overlay to mine, with quite a strange graphical effect.

I added

_progressBar.tintColor = [UIColor clearColor];

and It went just fine. Thanks for the solution man.
