I have followed a page view controller tutorial I have even downloaded the full project they give you as a sample however when I follow it exactly I can not see the page dots in my project. I have even copied and pasted the tutorial code into my files and also copied and pasted the storyboard viewcontrollers to my project. Still no dots.

Please could you have a look at the attached project file and see if you can figure out what the difference is between my version and the original so I can see the page indicator dots.

(I am viewing both on the iphone 4inch simulator)

My project

The tutorial sample code (this does show the page dots)

It's there, it's just that it's white on a white background, whereas in the demo project it's being tinted so that it shows, using the following code in the app delegate:

Code:
    UIPageControl *pageControl = [UIPageControl appearance];
    pageControl.pageIndicatorTintColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
    pageControl.currentPageIndicatorTintColor = [UIColor blackColor];
    pageControl.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

This will cause UIPageControls in the app to be darker and thus show up against light backgrounds.
