UIButtons that swap images

Hello, I'm trying to use a UIButton that switches an image onclick. I understand you can create a custom UIButton and change the background or create a "toggle" type switch. Unfortunately, for my app I need to have the button to be separate from the image (when clicked it changes between two images on a different part of the screen). I have found a tutorial on this before but now am having trouble locating it. Any help is much appreciated. I am brand new to treehouse and Objective-C btw ;)

Matthew,

I created a sample project with basic functionality to switch between images-- code available here :) I've documented certain things that'll hopefully help you along the way.

Have fun building your app!

Hey Matthew,

Welcome to Treehouse! (and learning like, the coolest language ever)

Do you think you could clarify more of what you mean? Would you like to have an image and then a button somewhere (maybe below it?) that would change the image when tapped?

Yes, exactly. An image with a button below it that changes the image when tapped. Also, when the button is pressed a second time, I would like the image to revert back to the original.

Thanks Matthew!
