Changing the background color of a UIAlertView?

Question

I want to change the background color of my UIAlertView, but this doesn\'t appear to have a color attribute.

Answer 1

Well i solved the problem in a different way. I searched for the UIImageView which contains the background image and change the image.

... well show is maybe not the best solution for altering the view ...

@implementation CustomAlertView

- (void)show {
    [super show];

    for (UIView *view in self.subviews) {
        NSLog(@"%@ with %i children", view, [view.subviews count]);
        // change the background image
        if ([view isKindOfClass:[UIImageView class]]) {
            UIImage *theImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"password entry bg - default.png"];    
            ((UIImageView *)view).image = [theImage resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(49, 8, 8, 8)];
        }
    }
}

@end
