how to set a background image as colorWithPatternImage in swift

Question

My questions is, is it possible to have a UIView display an image, and if so, how so I do it? All I can find is the colorwithpatternImage which no longer works

Answer 1

You have to add optional binding for the above code to work. That is exclamation after UIImage as shown below.

view.backgroundColor = UIColor(patternImage: UIImage(named: "backgroundSection.png")!)
