Question

I have a UIView in an .xib file connected to it’s relevant .h file as an IBOutlet. I wish to set it’s layer properties: borderColor, borderWidth and cornerRadius.

I did it once before and it was quite easy. It was something like:

-(void) viewDidLoad {
     [super viewDidLoad];
     self.myView.layer.borderColor = [UIColor blueColor].CGColor;
     self.myView.layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
     self.myView.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0f;
}

For some reason, when I do it in this new project, these layer properties are not available. When I write “self.myView.layer.” I get no options to fill.

Does anyone have any idea what may be the problem?

Add QuartzCore framework to your project

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h> 

in your .h or .m file
