UIButton with Custom border colour, iPhone

Question

I want to create Custom UIButton with rectangular shape. for this I am using rectangular view as a Background for UIButton and making UIbuttons background colour as clearcolor.

Answer 1

I wasted a few minutes and got frustrated that the border was not showing up even though I was setting the layer property as suggested above.

When I set the width using the following, I saw the button border.

[[button layer] setBorderWidth:2.0f];
