Xcode 6 search bar tint clear color becomes black?

Question

I am using the Xcode 6 GM. Adding a search bar with default settings like this

Then i changed the bar tint to "Clear Color" in the attributes inspector, then it becomes this

Back to Xcode 5.1, The same bar tint color change looks more intuitive as the clear color means seeing through.

Is this some kind of bug or an expected changes by the new Xcode?

I have the same problem with Xcode6 GM. Btw, setting up batTintColor in code doesn't help. So, its not a problem of IB at all. – Exosmosis

+1. Its work for me, but now UISearchBar textfield is become transparent. i.e it takes background color of parentView. How can i set textfield color to white? – Dylane

@Kampai, for that, you need to add this line - searchBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: UIBarPosition.any, barMetrics: .default) – Linell
