UIButton doesn't listen to content mode setting?

Question

firstButton is a UIButton of type Custom. I\'m programmatically putting three of them across each cell of a table, thusly:

[firstButton setImage:markImage fo         


        

Answer 1

Only solution which worked for me:

[button setImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill;
button.contentHorizontalAlignment = UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentFill;
button.contentVerticalAlignment = UIControlContentVerticalAlignmentFill;

Answer 2

Found a fix for this. Set the adjustsImageWhenHighlighted property of UIButton to NO.

  UIButton *b = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        [b setImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        [b.imageView setContentMode:UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill];
        [b setAdjustsImageWhenHighlighted:NO];

Hope this helps. Feel free to comment below, I will follow up on any questions that you have.
