UIButton with low alpha background but fully opaque title?
How can I make a UIButton with a transparent background but a non-transparent title? I tried the following
button.alpha = .5;
button.titleLabel.alpha = 1;
That did not have the desired effect. Other suggestions?

just make only the background 0.5 alpha
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:100.0/255.0 green:100.0/255.0 blue:100.0/255.0 alpha:0.5];

you can read existing backgroundColor and create new background color out of it by keeping all the components same except alpha

Just try playing with different parts of your button.
For example, if that is the image, that you want with alpha 0.5, then try this:
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"myImage"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.imageView.alpha = 0.5;
or even this:
button.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"myImage"]];
button.backgroundColor = [button.backgroundColor colorWithAlphaComponent:0.5];
You can even add alpha directly onto UIImage --

The above link would help if you are setting the image via:
[button setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"myImage"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
I don't know other solutions, though. Hope this helps.
