Remove UISegmentedControl separators completely. (iphone)

Question

Is there a way to completely remove the line separating the two segments in a UISegmentedControl?

Setting the segmentedControlStyle is not helping.

Answer 1

I have used segmentcontrol.tintColor = [UIColor clearColor]; with iOS7 and it seems to work.

Answer 2

The following code will do exactly what you want.

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(CGSizeMake(1, self.segControlOut.frame.size.height), NO, 0.0);
UIImage *blank = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
[self.segControlOut setDividerImage:blank
                forLeftSegmentState:UIControlStateNormal
                  rightSegmentState:UIControlStateNormal
                         barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

Answer 3

- (void) configSegmentControl {
    [segmentControl setBackgroundImage:[self imageWithColor:[UIColor blueColor]] forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    [segmentControl setBackgroundImage:[self imageWithColor:[UIColor redColor]] forState:UIControlStateSelected  barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    segmentControl.layer.cornerRadius = 4.0f;
    segmentControl.clipsToBounds = YES;
}

- (UIImage *)imageWithColor:(UIColor *)color {
    CGRect rect = CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size);
    CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();

    CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, [color CGColor]);
    CGContextFillRect(context, rect);

    UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return image;
}
