You said you set a custom image for the UIControlStateHighlighted state. This should disable the default behaviour. If you still have problems you can disable this effect by setting the adjustsImageWhenHighlighted property to NO and use whatever custom effect you want.
Image overrides title, you need to make the image a background image to show the title. [button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@”left_halfscreen_button.png”] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
Swift 4.x version of Kubba’s answer: Need to Update Line Break as Clip/WordWrap/ in Interface builder to corresponding buttons. class ResizableButton: UIButton { override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize { let labelSize = titleLabel?.sizeThatFits(CGSize(width: frame.width, height: .greatestFiniteMagnitude)) ?? .zero let desiredButtonSize = CGSize(width: labelSize.width + titleEdgeInsets.left + titleEdgeInsets.right, height: labelSize.height + titleEdgeInsets.top + titleEdgeInsets.bottom) return desiredButtonSize } … Read more
I had the same problem. I see this question is a little old, but I want to provide a clear and correct answer to save other folks (like me) some time when it pops up in their search results. It took me a bit of searching and experimenting, but I found the solution. Simply set … Read more
You can replace target-action with a closure by adding a helper closure wrapper (ClosureSleeve) and adding it as an associated object to the control so it gets retained. This is a similar solution to the one in n13‘s answer. But I find it simpler and more elegant. The closure is invoked more directly and the … Read more
I have been working extensively with Live Views since it’s introductions and like a lot of new features in Xcode initially, it has some flaws. Still I like it a lot and I hope that it will be improved in newer versions. Cause: Live Views work with @property properties that get a special IB_Designable tag … Read more
If your code allows, I’d recommend you set the UIButton tag equal to the indexPath.row, so when its action is triggered, you can pull the tag and thus row out of the button data during the triggered method. For example, in cellForRowAtIndexPath you can set the tag: button.tag = indexPath.row button.addTarget(self, action: “buttonClicked:”, forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside) … Read more
You should use setTitle:forState: to change the title of a UIButton. If you change the title yourself, the button has no indication that it needs to resize the label – you’d end up having to do something like this: myButton.titleLabel.text = @”this is the new label”; [myButton setNeedsLayout]; but I’m not even sure that would work … Read more
UIView *lineView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, btn.frame.size.width, 1)]; lineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor]; [btn addSubview:lineView]; you can do the same for each border. Adding multiple UIViews you can add bottom and left or top and right or any border you want. i.e. bottom & left: UIView *bottomBorder = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, btn.frame.size.height – 1.0f, btn.frame.size.width, … Read more
