Question

I\'m building an app using swift in the latest version of Xcode 6, and would like to know how I can modify my button so that it can have a rounded border that I could adjust mys

You can subclass UIButton and add @IBInspectable variables to it so you can configure the custom button parameters via the StoryBoard "Attribute Inspector". Below I write down that code.

@IBDesignable
class BHButton: UIButton {

    /*
    // Only override draw() if you perform custom drawing.
    // An empty implementation adversely affects performance during animation.
    override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
        // Drawing code
    }
    */

    @IBInspectable lazy var isRoundRectButton : Bool = false

    @IBInspectable public var cornerRadius : CGFloat = 0.0 {
        didSet{
            setUpView()
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable public var borderColor : UIColor = UIColor.clear {
        didSet {
            self.layer.borderColor = borderColor.cgColor
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable public var borderWidth : CGFloat = 0.0 {
        didSet {
            self.layer.borderWidth = borderWidth
        }
    }

    //  MARK:   Awake From Nib

    override func awakeFromNib() {
        super.awakeFromNib()
        setUpView()
    }

    override func prepareForInterfaceBuilder() {
        super.prepareForInterfaceBuilder()
        setUpView()
    }

    func setUpView() {
        if isRoundRectButton {
            self.layer.cornerRadius = self.bounds.height/2;
            self.clipsToBounds = true
        }
        else{
            self.layer.cornerRadius = self.cornerRadius;
            self.clipsToBounds = true
        }
    }

}
