I have an app that incorporates many round rect buttons. However, in xcode 5, those dont exist. How do I get the round rect buttons back? They are essential to my app. Now it ju
Click on the button you want to get rounded. Then click on the Identity Inspector on the right top side. There You can see User Defined Runtime Attributes. Click on plus (+)
You wont see the changes in View. You will see it in Runtime
Here's a similar answer to the one I gave to this question:
-EDIT-
Add: #import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>
to the top of your .h
file.
If you want rounded corners just ctrl-drag
from the button to your .h
file, call it something like roundedButton
and add this in your viewDidLoad
:
CALayer *btnLayer = [roundedButton layer];
[btnLayer setMasksToBounds:YES];
[btnLayer setCornerRadius:5.0f];
To make the button white (or any other colour), select the attributes inspector and scroll down to the View
section, select Background and change it to White:
Set a background image on your buttons with the desired borders, using a stretchable image.
Check this link for a good example: Stretch background image for UIButton
OR, embrace the new iOS7 UI and scrap the borders ... ;-)
Swift 2.0:
let sampleButton = UIButton(frame: CGRectMake(100,100,200,100))
sampleButton.titleLabel?.text = "SAMPLE"
sampleButton.backgroundColor = UIColor.grayColor()
//Setting rounded boarder
sampleButton.layer.cornerRadius = 10
sampleButton.layer.borderWidth = 1
sampleButton.layer.borderColor = UIColor.blackColor().CGColor
self.view.addSubview(sampleButton)
Same can achieved by programmatically.where myView is IBOutlet object.
myView.layer.cornerRadius = 5;
myView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
The higher the number, the more rounded the corners. 50 is a circle for a standard button (or width/2). You won't see the change in the storyboard, but it will show at runtime.
