I must have overlooked something completely obvious?? but my button displays its image and size correctly, but I simply can't get the Title to show up.
I did a really simple test, the Title does not even show up when I do this:
CGRect frameBtn = CGRectMake(160.0f, 150.0f, 144.0f, 42.0f);
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"left_halfscreen_button.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setTitle:@"Hello" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button setFrame:frameBtn];
NSLog(@"Title:%@", [button currentTitle]);
//prints "Title:Hello
[self addSubview:button];
I have a factory class that generates custom buttons for me and I thought I messed some detail up there, so I moved the above code directly into my UIView, the title is still blank.
Is this a bug or am I simply missing something right in front of my eyes.
Thank you for the extra set of eyes:)
Image overrides title, you need to make the image a background image to show the title.
ReplyDelete[button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"left_halfscreen_button.png"]
forState:UIControlStateNormal];
I just hab spome quite similar problem... Just set the title color, I guess the current one is white ;)
ReplyDelete[button setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
I found the problem!
ReplyDeleteIt's not Image overriding the title. It is being push off frame by the image.
Try use this:
[btn setTitleEdgeInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0, -img.size.width, 0.0, 0.0 )];
Hope it helps!
I had a similar problem that the title was not shown. I forgot to set the frame property:
ReplyDelete//set the position of the button
button.frame = CGRectMake(100, 170, 100, 30);
