Customize Switch

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

Hi Everyone,

Is it possible to change the image that is used in a switch for IOS. I see there is a background image property but when I apply my image nothing changes.

I am using the latest version of the TI Studio and SDK.

Thanks in advance Sean

No, the switch does not take a custom background image. If you wanted to create a custom switch you'd either have to build one from low level views or build a native module that allows you to set a bg image.

  • Hi Anthony,

    Thats what I thought but just wanted to confirm since it was in the documentation. Are their any plans to include this in the next version?

    Thanks

  • Its in the docs because the Switch inherits from a base View and a View has a backgroundImage. Even though all Views will have a bg image property, some Views, mostly controls will override that property natively. There are not plans to change this in any upcoming versions.

Sean. Have a look at this native module if you want to customise the switch changing its backgroundImages and colours. TintSwitch.
