I'm trying to add a 1px black drop shadow to a button label with no luck. I've tried this:self.setTitleShadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, -1);
but I get:
Request for member 'setTitleShadowOffset' in something not a structure or union
Any suggestions would be fantastic thanks!
Go to the Storyboard. Add a Button to the main view and give it a title of "Shadow Tutorial". Select the Resolve Auto Layout Issues button and select Reset to Suggested Constraints. The Storyboard should look like this.
Add a shadowTap to select an object, or select multiple objects. , then tap Style. Turn on Shadow, then tap a shadow style.
The right property is self.titleLabel.shadowOffset:
UIButton *b = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[b setTitleShadowColor:[UIColor purpleColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
b.titleLabel.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(1.0, 1.0);
[b setTitle:@"Hello, I'm a Button" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
b.frame = CGRectMake(10.0, 10.0,300.0, 40.0);
The other answers do not properly set the shadow color (I suspect they didn't notice because they were trying to set the shadow color to what it is by default, black.)
This code worked for me to add a white shadow to the text of my button:
myButton.titleLabel.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 1);
[myButton setTitleShadowColor:[UIColor whiteColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
