I'm trying to change the background color of a button when it's selected and don't want to use an image.
[mBtn setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor] forState:U开发者_如何学JAVAIControlStateHighlighted];
Any thoughts?
I'm replying to this old thread because it pops up consistently in searches for a solution to this problem and I have seen no solution elsewhere. It is truly annoying that setTintColor only applies to the highlighted state of a UIButton. Six months ago, it was equally annoying that it applied only to iOS 5, but that will hopefully be less of an issue going forward. With that in mind, I've drawn upon and combined a number of community suggestions to composite a general purpose solution to tinting a group of buttons in their normal state.
The method below accepts an NSArray of UIButtons and a set of color specifications as input. It applies the color specifications to one button using setTintColor, renders the result to a UIImage, and applies that image as the background image of the entire set of buttons. This avoids the need to create discrete image files for button colors. Also, it does so using a stretchable image so that it may work with a collection of buttons of different sizes (though note that it assumes the default corner rounding factors of UIButton). I hope you'll find it useful for iOS 5 targets.
- (void) setColorOfButtons:(NSArray*)buttons red:(float)red green:(float)green blue:(float)blue alpha:(float)alpha {
if (buttons.count == 0) {
return;
}
// get the first button
NSEnumerator* buttonEnum = [buttons objectEnumerator];
UIButton* button = (UIButton*)[buttonEnum nextObject];
// set the button's highlight color
[button setTintColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:red/255.9999f green:green/255.9999f blue:blue/255.9999f alpha:alpha]];
// clear any existing background image
[button setBackgroundImage:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
// place the button into highlighted state with no title
BOOL wasHighlighted = button.highlighted;
NSString* savedTitle = [button titleForState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setTitle:nil forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setHighlighted:YES];
// render the highlighted state of the button into an image
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(button.layer.frame.size);
CGContextRef graphicsContext = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
[button.layer renderInContext:graphicsContext];
UIImage* image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIImage* stretchableImage = [image stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:12 topCapHeight:0];
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
// restore the button's state and title
[button setHighlighted:wasHighlighted];
[button setTitle:savedTitle forState:UIControlStateNormal];
// set background image of all buttons
do {
[button setBackgroundImage:stretchableImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
} while (button = (UIButton*)[buttonEnum nextObject]);
}
[mBtn setTintColor:[UIColor grayColor]];
This only effects the highlighted state, so I believe that this is what you're looking for.
You can also set it from Interface Builder, from the Highlight Tint drop-down menu.
Just for people that will land here like I did when searching for changing background colors for highlighted state...
I ended up with an UIButton subclass that has a property for backgroundHighlightColor and tracks highlighting through KVO. Here's the link to GitHub: SOHighlightButton
You should be able to adapt it to any other scenario if you need more / other properties ot the UIButton to change if highlighted.
There is no method like this, setBackgroundColor: forState:
Check documentation. you need to use image.
