I am trying to create a UILabel that will have a gradient background color. I am wondering if there is a way to do this through the interface builder. If not, is there a way to accomplish this programmatically using the Swift programming language?
Any input or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You actually can't put directly a gradient layer in a UILabel, since the text will dissapear. See Adding a CGGradient as sublayer to UILabel hides the text of label
You can use an UIView, put your UILabel inside it, and then add the gradient layer to the UIView like this.

How to animate the background color of a UILabel?
I'm pretty new to animating things on iOS and have a basic question.
I have a UILabel that I want to briefly change the color of. Basically, inside of cellForRowAtIndexPath: I am reloading my cell's every 15 seconds or so. If a certain cell meet's a requirement, I want to briefly change the label's color and animate it to fade off back to it's original color.
Pop on, fade out.
Any tips would be amazing. Thanks guys.
This isn't the brightest solution, but it might get you to what you need: Create an identical, new UILabel with the same frame, font, etc... but with a different color. Use the animatable "alpha" property to fade your old color out and it will seem as if the underlaying label's color is being transitioned in.

I dont wan't to show drawing on that button.
How can i do that?
There are 2 approaches:
1) You can do this IB:
Drag your UIImageView in IB to bottom of your stack subviews of view where your UIView (where you are drawing) is placed.
2) You can do this in code:
Push your view on the top of views using following method
- (void)bringSubviewToFront:(UIView *)view
For example:
UILabel * labelgreen;
[labelgreen.superview bringSubviewToFront:labelgreen];

I want to add a background image to a textview. Can it be done through the interface editor?
If not, what will be the code required to do so?
I want the text to scroll with the background image as the number of lines with text increase.
Well I found the following way, using patternImage. Multiple lines can be made, pattern will contain a single line :)
textView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed: #"line.png"]];
Just put UIImageView with your desired image, and, above that, use textview with ClearColor Background.
