I have one view , and want set backGroudColor for this view by UIImage. The code as :

self.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"backImage.png"]];

the problem is: the backImage'frame is small than the view. how to stretch UIImage to full my view. I konw use UIImageView can reach.

someone have good idea?

update:

I can't upload one image.

Like this:backImge's size is 30*30, and my view's size is 1024*700, when i use myview.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"backImage.png"]];

The result is myview's backGroup has many 'backImage.png'. my goal is have one 'backImage.png' streth full myview.

Have a try.

self.layer.contents = (id)[UIImage imageNamed:@"freshBackground.png"].CGImage;

Swift:

self.view.layer.contents = UIImage(named: "freshBackground")!.cgImage
