Ios – How to adjust an UIButton’s imageSize

iosobjective cuibuttonxcode

How can I adjust the image size of the UIButton? I am setting the image like this:

[myLikesButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"icon-heart.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

However this fills up the image to the full button, how do I make the image smaller?

If I understand correctly what you're trying to do, you need to play with the buttons image edge inset. Something like:

myLikesButton.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 30, left: 30, bottom: 30, right: 30)
