Question

I wanted to make a UIButton with a shadow effect [UIButtonInst titleLabel].shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 1) (//shadow below text) for normal state while CGSizeMake(0, -1) (//shadow over the text) for highlighted state.

I read the documentation for UIButton. It seems that the [UIButtonInst titleLabel].shadowOffset cannot be set for different states. There are setBackgroundImage:forState, and setTitleColor:forState, but there is no such setTitleShadowOffset:forState.

Is there a way to make that happen?

Answer 1

Got it in documents,

@property(nonatomic) BOOL reversesTitleShadowWhenHighlighted 

is exactly what I need.

Need to read documents more carefully, :p
