斯威夫特3:

extension UIButton {
    private func imageWithColor(color: UIColor) -> UIImage {
        let rect = CGRect(x:0.0,y:0.0,width: 1.0,height: 1.0)
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size)
        let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()

        context!.setFillColor(color.cgColor)
        context!.fill(rect)

        let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

        return image!
    }

    func setBackgroundColor(color: UIColor, forUIControlState state: UIControlState) {
        self.setBackgroundImage(imageWithColor(color: color), for: state)
    }
}

试试这个!!!!

TouchedDown事件设置一种颜色，TouchUpInside设置另一种颜色。

- (IBAction)touchedDown:(id)sender {
    NSLog(@"Touched Down");
    btn1.backgroundColor=[UIColor redColor];
}

- (IBAction)touchUpInside:(id)sender {
    NSLog(@"TouchUpInside");
    btn1.backgroundColor=[UIColor whiteColor];    
}

下面是Swift中选择按钮状态的代码:

func imageWithColor(color:UIColor) -> UIImage {
    let rect:CGRect = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0)
     UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size)
    let context:CGContextRef = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!
    CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, color.CGColor)
    CGContextFillRect(context, rect)
    let image:UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
    return image;
}

例子:

    self.button.setImage(self.imageWithColor(UIColor.blackColor()), forState: .Highlighted)

如果你不重写 只需要设置两个动作 触地得分 touchUpInside

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)

class CustomButton: UIButton {

    override var isHighlighted: Bool {
        didSet {
            if (isHighlighted) {
                alpha = 0.5
            }
            else {
                alpha = 1
            }            
        }
    }

}
