i created a uibutton like so:
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
button.frame = CGRectMake(280, 320, 100, 30);
[button setTitle:#"World" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(button:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button.backgroundColor= [UIColor clearColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:button];
and the button's text looks edgy, someone know why?
Change
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
to
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
^^^^^^
All will be good..
Try giving Font :
// Configure the cell...
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 30);
[button setTitle:#"World" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(button:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button.titleLabel.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"HelveticaNeu-CondensedBold" size:16];
button.backgroundColor= [UIColor clearColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:button];

UITextField is shown but not the UIButton.
How can I show the button ??
UITextField *password = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30.0, 150, 300, 30.0)];
password.delegate = self;
[password setBorderStyle:UITextBorderStyleRoundedRect];
[password setClearButtonMode:UITextFieldViewModeAlways];
password.placeholder = #"Password";
[password setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:10]];
[self.view addSubview:password];
//button
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 200 , 50, 50)] ;
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(clicked) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button setTitle:#"Show View" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button = [UIButton buttonWithType: UIButtonTypeSystem];
[self.view addSubview:button];
Try to add BackgroundColor and TitleColor of button:
[button setBackgroundColor:[UIColor greenColor]];
[button setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
you are intializing button two times.
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 200 , 50, 50)] ;
button = [UIButton buttonWithType: UIButtonTypeSystem];
Intialize system button and set its frame later.
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType: UIButtonTypeSystem];
button.frame = CGRectMake(30, 200 , 50, 50);
Hope this will help.
I have a UIButton that is added on my super view as a subview, It is just a big block, how do I add an image to my button.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
button.frame = CGRectMake(890, 345 , 100, 100);
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
[self.collectionView.superview addSubview:button];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(changeContentOffset:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
}
you can add image in UIButton by following two ways.
1) With help of setting Background Image.
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(890, 345 , 100, 100);
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
[button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#""] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.collectionView.superview addSubview:button];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(changeContentOffset:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
2) Or you can add UIImageView as subview.
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(890, 345 , 100, 100);
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
[button setClipsToBounds:YES];
[button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#""] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
UIImageView * imgView = [[UIImageView alloc]init];
[imgView setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#""]];
[imgView setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100)];
[button addSubview:imgView];
[self.collectionView.superview addSubview:button];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(changeContentOffset:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
Use this:
-setBackgroundImage:forState:
you may looking for something like this, if you want to have an "image as button" and not only a default button with an image inside
BOOL ipad = UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad;
UIButton* btn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];;
CGRect frame;
//universal app
if (ipad)
{
btn.frame = frame = CGRectMake( x, y, w, h );
}
else
{
btn.frame = frame = CGRectMake( x, y, w, h );
}
btn.titleLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btn setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"buttonAsImage.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal && UIControlStateHighlighted];
[btn setTitle:title forState:UIControlStateNormal];
There are different ways to do it.
First one is you can add an imageview to your superview and set imageview's image whatever you want. Then, at the same position add your button with size of imageview and set button color to clearColor. But you need to add imageView first otherwise your button will be under the image.
Second one is default image to button, use setImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal or setBackgroundImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal.
Got it, here is how:
[button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"image.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal && UIControlStateHighlighted];
Use this method.
- (void)setBackgroundImage:(UIImage *)image forState:(UIControlState)state
i am creating three buttons and one uitextview dynamically but when i run the program its not display on my screen
this my code to create dynamic buttons and textview
-(void)getSmsdisplay
{
self.view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen]
applicationFrame]];
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button2 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UITextView *textview=[[UITextView alloc]init];
[button setTitle:#"Comment" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 setTitle:#"Share" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 setTitle:#"Like" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
//listen for clicks
[button addTarget:self
action:#selector(btncomment:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button1 addTarget:self
action:#selector(btnShare:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button2 addTarget:self
action:#selector(Like:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
smsdata *data=[[smsdata alloc]init];
[textview setText:data.Data];
[self.view addSubview:textview];
//add the button to the view
[self.view addSubview:button];
[self.view addSubview:button1];
[self.view addSubview:button2];
}
your coding is fine , but u r not added the frame for UIButton and UItextview
-(void)getSmsdisplay
{
self.view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen]
applicationFrame]];
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button2 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UITextView *textview=[[UITextView alloc]init];
button.frame=CGRectMake(20, 50, 200, 50);
button1.frame=CGRectMake(20, 150, 200, 50);
button2.frame=CGRectMake(20, 300, 200, 50);
button.backgroundColor=[UIColor redColor];
button1.backgroundColor=[UIColor grayColor];
button2.backgroundColor=[UIColor blackColor];
[button setTitle:#"Comment" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 setTitle:#"Share" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button2 setTitle:#"Like" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
//listen for clicks
[button addTarget:self
action:#selector(btncomment:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button1 addTarget:self
action:#selector(btnShare:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button2 addTarget:self
action:#selector(Like:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[textview setText:#"karthik"];
[self.view addSubview:textview];
//add the button to the view
[self.view addSubview:button];
[self.view addSubview:button1];
[self.view addSubview:button2];
}
the output is
You are assigning self.view to another UIView instance, which has not been added to the viewController. Note that self.view is already initialised in a viewController and it is dangerous to reassign the same.
Also, you have not set any frames for the Buttons and textview.
The following code should make it work.
-(void)getSmsdisplay
{
UIView *smsView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen]
applicationFrame]];
[self.view addSubview: smsView]; //The new view needs to be added to something!
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button1 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UIButton *button2 = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
UITextView *textview=[[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake:(20,20,100,50)];
[button setTitle:#"Comment" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 setTitle:#"Share" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button1 setTitle:#"Like" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
//listen for clicks
[button addTarget:self
action:#selector(btncomment:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button1 addTarget:self
action:#selector(btnShare:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button2 addTarget:self
action:#selector(Like:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
smsdata *data=[[smsdata alloc]init];
[textview setText:data.Data];
[smsView addSubview:textview];
button.frame=CGRectMake(20, 50, 200, 50);
button1.frame=CGRectMake(20, 150, 200, 50);
button2.frame=CGRectMake(20, 300, 200, 50);
//add the button to the view
[smsView addSubview:button];
[smsView addSubview:button1];
[smsView addSubview:button2];
}
I tried to set Rounded button with the following but its disappearing from the view. if I removed the
takebtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
then its displaying the rectangular button. help me to get the RoundedRect Button.
takebtn = [[UIButton alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(30, 325, 250, 40)];
takebtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[takebtn setTitle:#"Take Photo" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
takebtn.backgroundColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:50.0/255.0 green:205.0/255.0 blue:50.0/255.0 alpha:1.0];
[takebtn addTarget:self
action:#selector(takePhoto:)
forControlEvents:(UIControlEvents)UIControlEventTouchDown];
[nextview addSubview:takebtn];
You need to modify your code like that below:-
takeBtn.layer.cornerRadius = 10; //value can be change accordingly.
takeBtn.clipsToBounds = YES;
Note:- No need to import Quartz framework in ios7
try this
UIButton* takebtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[takebtn setFrame:CGRectMake(30, 325, 250, 40)];
[takebtn setTitle:#"Take Photo" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
takebtn.backgroundColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:50.0/255.0 green:205.0/255.0 blue:50.0/255.0 alpha:1.0];
[takebtn addTarget:self
action:#selector(takePhoto:)
forControlEvents:(UIControlEvents)UIControlEventTouchDown];
[nextview addSubview:takebtn];
I know I could do this:
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
button.frame = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);
[button setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
but that leaves a border around the button.
I could also do this:
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);
[button setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
then put a UILabel behind the button.
Is there a way to accomplish this ^ without needing two objects?
UPDATE:
To clarify my question:
I want the have text, only text, that when pressed performs a method call. For reasons that are complicated to explain I need to do this by way of a button. So, how do I make the text of a button the only visible part of the button. No border. No background. Just text.
UIButton *btnLikeUserCount = [[[UIButton alloc] init] autorelease];
[btnLikeUserCount.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:12]];
btnLikeUserCount.frame = CGRectMake(posx,posy,width,height);
[btnLikeUserCount setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnLikeUserCount setTitleColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:50/255.0 green:79/255.0 blue:133/255.0 alpha:1.0] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[btnLikeUserCount addTarget:self action:#selector(btnLikeUserCountClick:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
no need to take label object.
I can't get what you want exactly but you might be missed [self.view addSubview:button] in your code. so you can not display button with text.
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);
[button setTitle:text forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:button];
Your second code is working fine. In the below image hello is a button.
My code is:
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(110, 100, 100, 50);
[button setTitle:#"Hello" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonPressed) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:button];
in this way u can do this
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
button.frame = CGRectMake(100, 400, 100, 50);
[button setTitle:#"Button text" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button.layer setBorderColor: [UIColor clearColor]];
[button.layer setBorderWidth: 0.0];
[self.view addSubview:button];
