Changing title of UINavigationBar Created in Interface builder and General UINavigationBar logistics

Question

Hey all, the issue is that I have created a UINavigationBar in interface builder and I want to change the title. The Navigation bar is not hooked up to my UINavigation controller. Is there any way I can accomplish this with the Navigation Bar as a stand alone from my Nib?

The second part of my question is more a general understanding of how the UINavigationBars work. I don't understand how the stack of navigation items works. for example what if i want to change the right button item to say "done" instead of "edit"? My understanding is that the left, center, and right bar button item are on a stack? but then how do I know which item is at what place in the stack. I'm sorry if I am missing something elementary here but I need some clarification on how the left, center and right bar button items are managed, and how the stack works into this. Thanks in advance.

You could use a custom titleView in the navigation bar, in which you have added a UILabel with the text of your choice.

Read the "Configuring the Navigation Item Object" section of Apple's View Controller Programming Guide for iPhone OS documentation for more information on how to customize the navigation bar.
