I have a button called
#IBAction func likeIt(_ sender: Any) {
}
and I have two images called
like and likeSelected
how do I change the button picture when pressed and when not pressed
All you need to do is to give the button an initial image in the storyboard by setting the Image property.
Then after that you can set the button's image on highlighted state like below.
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var buttonView: UIButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
buttonView.setImage(UIImage(named: "likeSelected"), for: .highlighted)
}
}
Remember to check out Apple's documentation!
You're looking for UIButton.setImage(_:for:). For states, see UIControl.State.

I am looking for a Swift5 Color Picker and I came across the Color Picker of Rastislav Mirek.
I added the Picker as a Swift Package and followed the instructions in the Read Me file. For a simple start I wanted open the Color Picker as a modal and select a color. This color is set as a background then in the root view controller.
Even after having followed all steps I do not seem to get it working. I added the delegate and a button to trigger the segue to the modal.
Xcode drops an error like
Use of undeclared type "ColorPickerDelegate"
and
Use of unresolved identifier "colorPickerController"
Does anyone have an hint for me?
class ViewController: UIViewController, ColorPickerDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var hexTextField: UITextField!
#IBAction func applyColorPressed(_ sender: UIButton) {
//self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.green
let navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: colorPickerController)
present(navigationController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
}
I have a view container in my view controller, which is stretched to whole screen. User interaction enabled is on. When I open another view via this view container in this view controller, button is clickable but doesn't respond. What should I do to make it work?
ViewController:
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var viewContainer: UIView!
var views: [UIView]!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
views = [UIView]()
views.append(LoginVC().view)
views.append(RegisterVC().view)
for v in views{
viewContainer.addSubview(v)
}
viewContainer.bringSubview(toFront: views[1])
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#IBAction func switchViewAction(_ sender: UISegmentedControl) {
print("clicked - segment")
self.viewContainer.bringSubview(toFront: views[sender.selectedSegmentIndex])
}
and this is the button in the another view
#IBAction func registerTapped(_ sender: UIButton) {
print("Clicked - register")
}
I used Managing View Controllers tutorial to make it working.
You have to replace the entire ViewController, not just the View.
#IBAction func switchViewAction(_ sender: UISegmentedControl) {
self.viewContainer.bringSubview(toFront: views[sender.selectedSegmentIndex])
}
Your current code is just replacing LoginVC's view with RegisterVC's view, instead of replacing LoginVC with RegisterVC. When you do that, you leave behind the ViewController in charge of actually responding to any interaction.
You'll have to rework your code to keep track of the ViewControllers instead of just their views. Then, instead of adding all of your views to viewContainer and moving them to the front when you need to change the current view, you should set the your child ViewController (the ViewController embedded in your container) to the ViewController you want to show (either LoginVC or RegisterVC).
I'm trying to change the title in a TableViewController from another ViewController. (see image)
The second ViewController is the one with the 3 cells and the third one is the one with a textfield (inputText in code), a button (changeText) and a label (outputLabel). I would like this app to remember what I put in the text field when I go back to the table view and then back into the ViewController. What happens now is:
- I change the text, hit the button and the label changes.
- I go back to the TableViewController and then I go into the ViewController that I was just in with a changed label
- The label is what it was before...
How can I make the app 'remember' what I put in in the text field and what the label was like? My code (ViewController.swift, I linked the 3rd controller to this file, haven't linked the 2nd controller to anything (yet?)):
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var outputLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var inputText: UITextField!
#IBAction func changeText(_ sender: UIButton) {
outputLabel.text = inputText.text
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
Thanks in advance!
You can reference your ViewController in first controller (TableViewController),
make public inputText
#IBOutlet public weak var inputText: UITextField!
and in viewDidAppear get your text
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
let text = ViewControllerVar.inputText.text //your text
}
I have been struggling to pass data between view controllers using segues. I have watched many youtube video tutorials and searched around on forums but I can't figure out why it won't work. I don't get any error messages but when I click the 'Button' the simulator crashes. I would love some help! Thanks!
Here is the code :
ViewController1 :
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet var textField: UITextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {
let destViewController : ViewController2 = segue.destinationViewController as! ViewController2
destViewController.labelText = textField.text!
}
}
ViewController2 :
import Foundation
import UIKit
class ViewController2 : UIViewController {
#IBOutlet var Label: UILabel!
var labelText : String = ""
override func viewDidLoad() {
Label.text = labelText
}
}

As stated on the comment the problem was that you were using a push segue on a UIViewController.
Please note that push and modal segues are deprecated... Please take a look at this post entry and let me know if you have any doubts
What's the difference between all the Selection Segues?
Make sure to enter some text in your label textField before tapping the button since you are passing that label's text to next scene by using force unwrap.
destViewController.labelText = textField.text! //here compiler expects that your textField has the value
I made a sample project using your same code and didn't get an error. There's nothing wrong with your code.
Try this: Go to your storyboard and check outlets inspector for each view controller and make sure you don't have an outlet to nowhere.
How do I reveal the passcode dots in swift, so then the user can see their password by clicking a button.
Thanks

TextField has a property called secureTextEntry. All you need is to connect an outlet to your textfield and toggle secureTextEntry:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var passwordField: UITextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
passwordField.secureTextEntry = true
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#IBAction func showHide(sender: UIButton) {
passwordField.secureTextEntry = !passwordField.secureTextEntry
sender.setTitle({passwordField.secureTextEntry ? "Show":"Hide"}(), forState: .Normal)
}
}
stackoverflow provides a working search engine, but anyway here you is the answer.
Do the same, but with false instead of true
Obscure a UITextField password
By the way make sure that the user knows what he does when reveal the secure text.
