Change color of UISwitch in “off” state

Question

I\'ve learned that we can change the UISwitch button appearance in its \"on\" state, but is it also possible to change the color of the UISwitch in the \"off\" state?

Answer 1

The Best way to manage background color & size of UISwitch

For now it's Swift 2.3 code

import Foundation
import UIKit

@IBDesignable
class UICustomSwitch : UISwitch {

    @IBInspectable var OnColor : UIColor! = UIColor.blueColor()
    @IBInspectable var OffColor : UIColor! = UIColor.grayColor()
    @IBInspectable var Scale : CGFloat! = 1.0

    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        super.init(frame: frame)
        self.setUpCustomUserInterface()
    }

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        self.setUpCustomUserInterface()
    }


    func setUpCustomUserInterface() {

        //clip the background color
        self.layer.cornerRadius = 16
        self.layer.masksToBounds = true

        //Scale down to make it smaller in look
        self.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(self.Scale, self.Scale);

        //add target to get user interation to update user-interface accordingly
        self.addTarget(self, action: #selector(UICustomSwitch.updateUI), forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.ValueChanged)

        //set onTintColor : is necessary to make it colored
        self.onTintColor = self.OnColor

        //setup to initial state
        self.updateUI()
    }

    //to track programatic update
    override func setOn(on: Bool, animated: Bool) {
        super.setOn(on, animated: true)
        updateUI()
    }

    //Update user-interface according to on/off state
    func updateUI() {
        if self.on == true {
            self.backgroundColor = self.OnColor
        }
        else {
            self.backgroundColor = self.OffColor
        }
    }
}
