Set default color of UI element

Question

Let's say I wanted to set the default onTintColor globally for all of my UISwitches to red. Is there a way to set it so when I choose "default" color in the storyboard, it will appear red?

Answer 1

You can set appearance from your appDelegate

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
    UISwitch.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.blueColor()
    UISwitch.appearance().onTintColor = UIColor.redColor()
    return true
}
