Tint image in UISegmentedControl for selected index

Question

I have a UISegmentedControl with three images.

When the value of the control changes I want to recolor the icon of the selected segment . I know it's possible for text but I haven't found an option to change the tint color for a segmented control which consists of images instead of text titles.

Answer 1

While setting your image use:

UIImage *image = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"xyz.png"] imageWithRenderingMode:UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysTemplate];

Swift:

let image = UIImage(named:"xyz.png")?.imageWithRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate)

Then you can set tint color.

Answer 2

change tintcolor won't change the image's color in selected segment here. But you can directly change the segment's image when it is selected

func setImage(_ image: UIImage?, forSegmentAtIndex segment: Int)

and use always original rendering mode UIImage
