Question

How do you set the image for a UIButton in code   I have this   UIButton  btnTwo    UIButton buttonWithType UIButtonTypeRoundedRect    btnTwo frame   CGRectMake 40  140  240  30    btnTwo setTitle   vc2 v1  forState UIControlStateNormal    btnTwo addTarget self action  selector goToOne  forControlEvents UIControlEventTouchUpInside    self view addSubview btnTwo     but don t see what will set the image for it

Mike s solution will just show the image  but any title set on the button will not be visible  because you can either set the title or the image   If you want to set both  your image and title  use the following code   btnImage    UIImage imageNamed   image png     btnTwo setBackgroundImage btnImage forState UIControlStateNormal    btnTwo setTitle   Title  forState UIControlStateNormal

Don t worry so much framing the button from code  you can do that on the storyboard  This worked for me  one line   more simple    self button setBackgroundImage  UIImage imageNamed    yourPic png   forState UIControlStateNormal

I was looking for a solution to add an UIImage to my UIButton  The problem was just it displays the image bigger than needed  Just helped me with this    imageViewBackground     UIImageView alloc  initWithFrame rectImageView    imageViewBackground image    UIImage imageNamed   gradientBackgroundPlain     self addSubview  imageViewBackground    self insertSubview  imageViewBackground belowSubview self label    imageViewBackground hidden   YES    Every time I want to display my UIImageView I just set the var hidden to YES or NO   There might be other solutions but I got confused so many times with this stuff and this solved it and I didn t need to deal with internal stuff UIButton is doing in background

Before this would work for me I had to resize the button frame explicitly based on the image frame size   UIImage  listImage    UIImage imageNamed   list icon png    UIButton  listButton    UIButton buttonWithType UIButtonTypeCustom       get the image size and apply it to the button frame CGRect listButtonFrame   listButton frame  listButtonFrame size   listImage size  listButton frame   listButtonFrame    listButton setImage listImage forState UIControlStateNormal    listButton addTarget self navigationController parentViewController                 action  selector revealToggle         forControlEvents UIControlEventTouchUpInside   UIBarButtonItem  jobsButton        UIBarButtonItem alloc  initWithCustomView listButton    self navigationItem leftBarButtonItem   jobsButton
