你可以使用这个类别添加方法setBackgroundColor:forState:

我已经开源了一个UIButton子类stabuton来填补这个功能缺口。在MIT许可下可用。适用于iOS 7+(我没有测试过旧的iOS版本)。

使用https://github.com/swordray/UIButtonSetBackgroundColorForState

使用CocoaPods添加到Podfile

pod "UIButtonSetBackgroundColorForState"

斯威夫特

button.setBackgroundColor(.red, forState: .highlighted)

objective - c

[button setBackgroundColor:[UIColor redColor] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];

在Swift 5中

对于那些不想使用彩色背景击败所选状态的人

简单地说，你可以通过使用#Selector & if语句轻松地为每个状态单独更改UIButton颜色来解决这个问题

例如:

    override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    self.myButtonOutlet.backgroundColor = UIColor.white  //to reset the button color to its original color ( optionally )
}

@IBOutlet weak var myButtonOutlet: UIButton!{
    didSet{  // Button selector and image here
        self.myButtonOutlet.setImage(UIImage(systemName: ""), for: UIControl.State.normal)

        self.myButtonOutlet.setImage(UIImage(systemName: "checkmark"), for: UIControl.State.selected)



        self.myButtonOutlet.addTarget(self, action: #selector(tappedButton), for: UIControl.Event.touchUpInside)
    }
}

@objc func tappedButton() {  // Colors selection is here
    if self.myButtonOutlet.isSelected == true {

        self.myButtonOutlet.isSelected = false
        self.myButtonOutlet.backgroundColor = UIColor.white         
    } else {
        self.myButtonOutlet.isSelected = true

        self.myButtonOutlet.backgroundColor = UIColor.black
        self.myButtonOutlet.tintColor00 = UIColor.white

    }
}

在Swift中，你可以重写高亮显示(或选中)属性的访问器，而不是重写setHighlighted方法

override var highlighted: Bool {
        get {
            return super.highlighted
        }
        set {
            if newValue {
                backgroundColor = UIColor.blackColor()
            }
            else {
                backgroundColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
            }
            super.highlighted = newValue
        }
    }

UIButton扩展与Swift 3+语法:

extension UIButton {
    func setBackgroundColor(color: UIColor, forState: UIControlState) {
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(CGSize(width: 1, height: 1))
        UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!.setFillColor(color.cgColor)
        UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!.fill(CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 1, height: 1))
        let colorImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        self.setBackgroundImage(colorImage, for: forState)
    }}

像这样使用它:

YourButton.setBackgroundColor(color: UIColor.white, forState: .highlighted)
