UIView with rounded corners and drop shadow?

Question

I’ve been working on an application for a couple of years and received a simple design request: Round the corners on a UIView and add a drop shadow.To do as given below.

I want a custom UIView... : I just wanted a blank white view with rounded corners and a light drop shadow (with no lighting effect). I can do each of those one by one but the usual clipToBounds/maskToBounds conflicts occur.

Answer 1

Swift

// corner radius
blueView.layer.cornerRadius = 10

// border
blueView.layer.borderWidth = 1.0
blueView.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor

// shadow
blueView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
blueView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 3, height: 3)
blueView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7
blueView.layer.shadowRadius = 4.0

Exploring the options

Problem 1: Shadow gets clipped off

What if there are sublayers or subviews (like an image) whose content we want to clip to the bounds of our view?

We can accomplish this with

blueView.layer.masksToBounds = true

(Alternatively, blueView.clipsToBounds = true gives the same result.)

But, oh no! The shadow was also clipped off because it's outside of the bounds! What to do? What to do?

Solution

Use separate views for the shadow and the border. The base view is transparent and has the shadow. The border view clips any other subcontent that it has to its borders.

// add the shadow to the base view
baseView.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
baseView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
baseView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 3, height: 3)
baseView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7
baseView.layer.shadowRadius = 4.0

// add the border to subview
let borderView = UIView()
borderView.frame = baseView.bounds
borderView.layer.cornerRadius = 10
borderView.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
borderView.layer.borderWidth = 1.0
borderView.layer.masksToBounds = true
baseView.addSubview(borderView)

// add any other subcontent that you want clipped
let otherSubContent = UIImageView()
otherSubContent.image = UIImage(named: "lion")
otherSubContent.frame = borderView.bounds
borderView.addSubview(otherSubContent)

This gives the following result:

Problem 2: Poor performance

Adding rounded corners and shadows can be a performance hit. You can improve performance by using a predefined path for the shadow and also specifying that it be rasterized. The following code can be added to the example above.

baseView.layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: baseView.bounds, cornerRadius: 10).cgPath
baseView.layer.shouldRasterize = true
baseView.layer.rasterizationScale = UIScreen.main.scale

See this post for more details. See here and here also.

This answer was tested with Swift 4 and Xcode 9.

Answer 2

The following code snippet adds a border, border radius, and drop shadow to v, a UIView:

// border radius
[v.layer setCornerRadius:30.0f];

// border
[v.layer setBorderColor:[UIColor lightGrayColor].CGColor];
[v.layer setBorderWidth:1.5f];

// drop shadow
[v.layer setShadowColor:[UIColor blackColor].CGColor];
[v.layer setShadowOpacity:0.8];
[v.layer setShadowRadius:3.0];
[v.layer setShadowOffset:CGSizeMake(2.0, 2.0)];

Swift 5 Version :

// border radius
v.layer.cornerRadius = 30.0

// border
v.layer.borderColor = UIColor.lightGray.cgColor
v.layer.borderWidth = 1.5

// drop shadow
v.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
v.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.8
v.layer.shadowRadius = 3.0
v.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 2.0, height: 2.0)

You can adjust the settings to suit your needs.

Also, add the QuartzCore framework to your project and:

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

See my other answer regarding masksToBounds.

Note

This may not work in all cases. If you find that this method interferes with other drawing operations that you are performing, please see this answer.

Answer 3

Check out the example project on GitHub to make sure you use the component correctly.

Simple Swift 5 solution without any additional subviews or subclassing:

extension UIView {

    func addShadow(offset: CGSize, color: UIColor, radius: CGFloat, opacity: Float) {
        layer.masksToBounds = false
        layer.shadowOffset = offset
        layer.shadowColor = color.cgColor
        layer.shadowRadius = radius
        layer.shadowOpacity = opacity

        let backgroundCGColor = backgroundColor?.cgColor
        backgroundColor = nil
        layer.backgroundColor =  backgroundCGColor
    }
}

Note that you should set up your view with corner radius and other properties before calling addShadow.

After that, just call this from viewDidLoad like this:

button.addShadow(offset: CGSize.init(width: 0, height: 3), color: UIColor.black, radius: 2.0, opacity: 0.35)

Final result:

Super easy and simple!

Answer 4

One way to do this is to put the view with rounded corners in a view with the drop shadow.

UIView* roundedView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: frame];
roundedView.layer.cornerRadius = 5.0;
roundedView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;

UIView* shadowView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: frame];
shadowView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor blackColor].CGColor;
shadowView.layer.shadowRadius = 5.0;
shadowView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(3.0, 3.0);
shadowView.layer.shadowOpacity = 1.0;
[shadowView addSubview: roundedView];

Then you can add the shadowView wherever you want.

Answer 5

This worked for me. Trick was to move the background color from the main view to the layer.

CALayer *layer = view.layer;
layer.cornerRadius = 15.0f;
layer.masksToBounds = NO;

layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 3);
layer.shadowColor = [[UIColor blackColor] CGColor];
layer.shadowRadius = 2.0f;
layer.shadowOpacity = 0.35f;
layer.shadowPath = [[UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:layer.bounds cornerRadius:layer.cornerRadius] CGPath];

CGColorRef  bColor = view.backgroundColor.CGColor;
view.backgroundColor = nil;
layer.backgroundColor =  bColor ;

Answer 6

I solved the problem using the following trick when assigning shadow path for the container view :

[UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:cell.bounds cornerRadius:12]

Notice that the path given to the shadow is a rounded rectangle with the same corner radius as the background that the cell contains:

//this is the border for the UIView that is added to a cell
cell.backgroundView.layer.cornerRadius = 12;
cell.backgroundView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
cell.backgroundView.layer.borderColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor].CGColor;
cell.backgroundView.layer.borderWidth = 1;

//this is the shadow around the cell itself (cannot have round corners with borders and shadow, need to use two views
cell.layer.shadowRadius = 2;
cell.layer.cornerRadius = 12;
cell.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
[[cell layer] setShadowColor:[[UIColor darkGrayColor] CGColor]];

[[cell layer] setShadowOffset:CGSizeMake(0.0,0.0)];
[[cell layer] setShadowOpacity:1.0];

UIBezierPath *path = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:cell.bounds cornerRadius:12];
[[cell layer] setShadowPath:[path CGPath]];

Answer 7

If you are struggling because of the rounded corners vs. subviews vs. masksToBounds, then try using my function:

- (UIView*)putView:(UIView*)view insideShadowWithColor:(UIColor*)color andRadius:(CGFloat)shadowRadius andOffset:(CGSize)shadowOffset andOpacity:(CGFloat)shadowOpacity
{
    CGRect shadowFrame; // Modify this if needed
    shadowFrame.size.width = 0.f;
    shadowFrame.size.height = 0.f;
    shadowFrame.origin.x = 0.f;
    shadowFrame.origin.y = 0.f;
    UIView * shadow = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:shadowFrame];
    shadow.userInteractionEnabled = NO; // Modify this if needed
    shadow.layer.shadowColor = color.CGColor;
    shadow.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset;
    shadow.layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius;
    shadow.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    shadow.clipsToBounds = NO;
    shadow.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity;
    [view.superview insertSubview:shadow belowSubview:view];
    [shadow addSubview:view];
    return shadow;
}

call it on your view. whether your view has rounded corners, no matter its size, its shape - a nice shadow will be drawn.

Just keep the return value of the function so you can refer to it when you want to remove the table (or for example use insertSubview:aboveView:)

Answer 8

Using Swift 4 and Xcode 9, this is a working example of rounding an ImageView with a drop shadow, and a border.

    //set dimensions and position of image (in this case, centered)
    let imageHeight: CGFloat = 150, imageWidth: CGFloat = 150
    let xPosition = (self.view.frame.width / 2) - (imageWidth / 2)
    let yPosition = (self.view.frame.height / 2) - (imageHeight / 2)

    //set desired corner radius
    let cornerRadius: CGFloat = 20

    //create container for the image
    let imageContainer = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: xPosition, y: yPosition, width: imageWidth, height: imageHeight))

    //configure the container
    imageContainer.clipsToBounds = false
    imageContainer.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
    imageContainer.layer.shadowOpacity = 1
    imageContainer.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 3.0, height: 3.0)
    imageContainer.layer.shadowRadius = 5
    imageContainer.layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: imageContainer.bounds, cornerRadius: cornerRadius).cgPath

    //create imageView
    let imageView = UIImageView(frame: imageContainer.bounds)

    //configure the imageView
    imageView.clipsToBounds = true
    imageView.layer.cornerRadius = cornerRadius
    //add a border (if required)
    imageView.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
    imageView.layer.borderWidth = 1.0
    //set the image
    imageView.image = UIImage(named: "bird")

    //add the views to the superview
    view.addSubview(imageContainer)
    imageContainer.addSubview(imageView)

If you want the image to be circular: (and shown without border)

let cornerRadius = imageWidth / 2

Answer 9

You need to use use shadowView and roundView

shadowView

• Must has background color
• Should lay behind roundView
• The trick is to layout shadowView a bit inside, and its shadow needs to glow out. Adjust the insets so that shadowView is completely invisible behind roundView

roundView

• Must clips subviews

The code

addSubviews(shadowView, roundView)
roundView.addSubviews(titleLabel, subtitleLabel, imageView)

// need inset
shadowView.pinEdges(view: self, inset: UIEdgeInsets(constraintInsets: 2))
roundView.pinEdges(view: self)

do {
  shadowView.backgroundColor = .white // need background
  let layer = shadowView.layer
  layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
  layer.shadowRadius = 3
  layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 3, height: 3)
  layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7
  layer.shouldRasterize = true
}

do {
  roundView.backgroundColor = .white
  let layer = roundView.layer
  layer.masksToBounds = true
  layer.cornerRadius = 5
}

Or you can just do below without specifying clipToBounds/maskToBounds

layer.shadowColor = UIColor.gray.cgColor
layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 3, height: 3)
layer.shadowOpacity = 0.8

Answer 10

Here is the solution that will work for sure!

I have created UIView extension with required edges to apply shadow on as below

enum AIEdge:Int {
    case
    Top,
    Left,
    Bottom,
    Right,
    Top_Left,
    Top_Right,
    Bottom_Left,
    Bottom_Right,
    All,
    None
}

extension UIView {
        
    func applyShadowWithCornerRadius(color:UIColor, opacity:Float, radius: CGFloat, edge:AIEdge, shadowSpace:CGFloat, cornerRadius: CGFloat)    {

        var sizeOffset:CGSize = CGSize.zero
        
        switch edge {
        case .Top:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: -shadowSpace)
        case .Left:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: -shadowSpace, height: 0)
        case .Bottom:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: shadowSpace)
        case .Right:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: shadowSpace, height: 0)
            
            
        case .Top_Left:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: -shadowSpace, height: -shadowSpace)
        case .Top_Right:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: shadowSpace, height: -shadowSpace)
        case .Bottom_Left:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: -shadowSpace, height: shadowSpace)
        case .Bottom_Right:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: shadowSpace, height: shadowSpace)
            
            
        case .All:
            sizeOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: 0)
        case .None:
            sizeOffset = CGSize.zero
        }

        self.layer.cornerRadius = cornerRadius
        self.layer.masksToBounds = true

        self.layer.shadowColor = color.cgColor
        self.layer.shadowOpacity = opacity
        self.layer.shadowOffset = sizeOffset
        self.layer.shadowRadius = radius
        self.layer.masksToBounds = false

        self.layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect:self.bounds, cornerRadius:self.layer.cornerRadius).cgPath
    }
}

Finally, you can call the shadow function as below for any of your UIView subclass, you can also specify the edge to apply shadow on, try different variations as per your need changing parameters of below method call.

viewRoundedToBeShadowedAsWell.applyShadowWithCornerRadius(color: .gray, opacity: 1, radius: 15, edge: AIEdge.All, shadowSpace: 15)

NOTE: If still that doesn't work, try calling it from MAIN THREAD

DispatchQueue.main.async {
   viewRoundedToBeShadowedAsWell.applyShadowWithCornerRadius(color: .gray, opacity: 1, radius: 15, edge: AIEdge.All, shadowSpace: 15)
}

Hope someone finds this useful !

I've created a helper on UIView

@interface UIView (Helper)

- (void)roundCornerswithRadius:(float)cornerRadius
               andShadowOffset:(float)shadowOffset;
@end

you can call it like this

[self.view roundCornerswithRadius:5 andShadowOffset:5];

Here's the implementation

- (void)roundCornerswithRadius:(float)cornerRadius
               andShadowOffset:(float)shadowOffset
{
    const float CORNER_RADIUS = cornerRadius;
    const float SHADOW_OFFSET = shadowOffset;
    const float SHADOW_OPACITY = 0.5;
    const float SHADOW_RADIUS = 3.0;

    UIView *superView = self.superview;

    CGRect oldBackgroundFrame = self.frame;
    [self removeFromSuperview];

    CGRect frameForShadowView = CGRectMake(0, 0, oldBackgroundFrame.size.width, oldBackgroundFrame.size.height);
    UIView *shadowView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frameForShadowView];
    [shadowView.layer setShadowOpacity:SHADOW_OPACITY];
    [shadowView.layer setShadowRadius:SHADOW_RADIUS];
    [shadowView.layer setShadowOffset:CGSizeMake(SHADOW_OFFSET, SHADOW_OFFSET)];

    [self.layer setCornerRadius:CORNER_RADIUS];
    [self.layer setMasksToBounds:YES];

    [shadowView addSubview:self];
    [superView addSubview:shadowView];

}

Answer 12

After one whole day research of the round corner view with shadow, I'm glad to post my custom uiview class here, hope to end this question:

RoundCornerShadowView.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface RoundCornerShadowView : UIView

@end

RoundCornerShadowView.m

#import "RoundCornerShadowView.h"

@implementation RoundCornerShadowView

// *** must override this method, not the other method ***
// otherwise, the background corner doesn't disappear....
// @2015/05/29
-(void) layoutSubviews {
    [super layoutSubviews];//is must to ensure rightly layout children view

    //1. first, create Inner layer with content
    CALayer *innerView = [CALayer layer];
    innerView.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.bounds.size.width,self.bounds.size.height);
    //instead of: innerView.frame = self.frame;
    innerView.borderWidth = 1.0f;
    innerView.cornerRadius = 6.0f;
    innerView.masksToBounds = YES;
    innerView.borderColor = [[UIColor lightGrayColor] CGColor];
    innerView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor whiteColor] CGColor];
    //put the layer to the BOTTOM of layers is also a MUST step...
    //otherwise this layer will overlay the sub uiviews in current uiview...
    [self.layer insertSublayer:innerView atIndex:0];

    //2. then, create shadow with self layer
    self.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    self.layer.shadowColor = [[UIColor darkGrayColor] CGColor];
    self.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.4f;
    //shadow length
    self.layer.shadowRadius = 2.0f;
    //no offset
    self.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 0);
    //right down shadow
    //[self.layer setShadowOffset: CGSizeMake(1.0f, 1.0f)];

    //3. last but important, MUST clear current view background color, or the color will show in the corner!
    self.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
}

@end

so, NO need to add subview in view or below in target view, just add one layer in current view, and do 3 step to complete it!

take a close look at to the comments in the code, it's helpful to understanding the component!

Swift 3 & IBInspectable solution:
Inspired by Ade's solution

First, create an UIView extension:

//
//  UIView-Extension.swift
//  

import Foundation
import UIKit

@IBDesignable
extension UIView {
     // Shadow
     @IBInspectable var shadow: Bool {
          get {
               return layer.shadowOpacity > 0.0
          }
          set {
               if newValue == true {
                    self.addShadow()
               }
          }
     }

     fileprivate func addShadow(shadowColor: CGColor = UIColor.black.cgColor, shadowOffset: CGSize = CGSize(width: 3.0, height: 3.0), shadowOpacity: Float = 0.35, shadowRadius: CGFloat = 5.0) {
          let layer = self.layer
          layer.masksToBounds = false

          layer.shadowColor = shadowColor
          layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset
          layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius
          layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity
          layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: layer.bounds, cornerRadius: layer.cornerRadius).cgPath

          let backgroundColor = self.backgroundColor?.cgColor
          self.backgroundColor = nil
          layer.backgroundColor =  backgroundColor
     }


     // Corner radius
     @IBInspectable var circle: Bool {
          get {
               return layer.cornerRadius == self.bounds.width*0.5
          }
          set {
               if newValue == true {
                    self.cornerRadius = self.bounds.width*0.5
               }
          }
     }

     @IBInspectable var cornerRadius: CGFloat {
          get {
               return self.layer.cornerRadius
          }

          set {
               self.layer.cornerRadius = newValue
          }
     }


     // Borders
     // Border width
     @IBInspectable
     public var borderWidth: CGFloat {
          set {
               layer.borderWidth = newValue
          }

          get {
               return layer.borderWidth
          }
     }

     // Border color
     @IBInspectable
     public var borderColor: UIColor? {
          set {
               layer.borderColor = newValue?.cgColor
          }

          get {
               if let borderColor = layer.borderColor {
                    return UIColor(cgColor: borderColor)
               }
               return nil
          }
     }
}

Then, simply select your UIView in interface builder setting shadow ON and corner radius, like below:

The result!

Something swifty tested in swift 4

import UIKit

extension UIView {
    @IBInspectable var dropShadow: Bool {
        set{
            if newValue {
                layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
                layer.shadowOpacity = 0.4
                layer.shadowRadius = 1
                layer.shadowOffset = CGSize.zero
            } else {
                layer.shadowColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor
                layer.shadowOpacity = 0
                layer.shadowRadius = 0
                layer.shadowOffset = CGSize.zero
            }
        }
        get {
            return layer.shadowOpacity > 0
        }
    }
}

Answer 15

iOS shadow and cornerRadius

[iOS CALayer]

[iOS masksToBounds]

[iOS debug rendering]

You are able to setup shadow using layer

//shadow
view1.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.magenta.cgColor

view1.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: 0)
view1.layer.shadowOpacity = 1
view1.layer.shadowRadius = 5

//cornerRadius
view1.layer.cornerRadius = 5

Visualization

1.shadowOffset.width, 2.shadowOffset.height, 3.shadowOpacity, 4. shadowRadius

• shadowOffset width and height are any
• shadowOpacity is from 0 to 1
• shadowRadius is positive from 0

Not simple task

Please note that shadow is not calculated only based on boundaries and cornerRaduis. During creating shadows next items are taken into account:

• subviews layers
• sublayers
• content(Backing Image)

view1.backgroundColor = .clear
view1.layer.contents = UIImage(named: "ring")?.cgImage
view1.layer.contentsScale = UIScreen.main.scale

ScaleFactor(contentsScale, rasterizationScale) - by default is 1.0

currentBitmapSize = layerSize * scaleFactor

//non retina
1 point == 1x pixels

//Retina
1 point == 2x pixels
//or
1 point == 3x pixels

//For example to draw line 
point(width: 4, height: 2) == 1x pixels(width: 4, height: 2)(8 pixels) == 2x pixels(width: 8, height: 4)(32 pixels)

Use UIScreen.main.scale = scale factor of current screen

[iOS pixels vs points vs units]

Perfomance

Using layer.cornerRadius, shadow has some performance impact

As for layer.cornerRadius perfomance:

Applying it color blending is used [Read more]

As for shadow Xcode hint you to:

The layer is using dynamic shadows which are expensive to render. If possible try setting shadowPath, or pre-rendering the shadow into an image and putting it under the layer

1. Additionally use shadowPath

For internally static layer. By default it is nil that is why UIKit should create view off-screen and based on this information create a shadow. That is why you are able to predefine a path and set it. One more advantage is that you are able to create a custom shadow as you wish

view1.layer.shadowPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: view1.bounds, cornerRadius: 50).cgPath

Disadvantage - not dynamic. If view changes boundaries(width, height, cornerRadius...) the shadow remains as it was(old boundaries). If view's position is changed(moved, scrolled) shadowPath will be correct

2. Cache Rasterize

[iOS shouldRasterize]

Notes:

• To hide shadow you can just set view.layer.masksToBounds = true

• When view doesn't have a backgroundColor (clear/transparent) - shadow is applied for all subviews. Official doc

• UITableView where every section has a shadow:

  • UITableView in Grouped or Inset Grouped Style
  • UITableView backgroundColor is clear

public func applyShadowForGroupedTableView(
  _ tableView: UITableView,
  shadowColor: CGColor,
  shadowOpacity: Float,
  shadowRadius: CGFloat,
  shadowOffset: CGSize
) {
  tableView.layer.masksToBounds = false
  tableView.layer.shadowColor = shadowColor
  tableView.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity
  tableView.layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius
  tableView.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset
  tableView.layer.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor
}

Answer 16

Here is the solution for masksToBounds conflict problem, it works for me.

After you set the corderRadius/borderColor/shadow and so on, set masksToBounds as NO:

v.layer.masksToBounds = NO;

Here is my version in Swift 3 for a UIView

let corners:UIRectCorner = [.bottomLeft, .topRight]
let path = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: rect, byRoundingCorners: corners, cornerRadii: CGSize(width: radius, height: radius))
let mask = CAShapeLayer()

mask.path = path.cgPath
mask.fillColor = UIColor.white.cgColor

let shadowLayer = CAShapeLayer()
shadowLayer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
shadowLayer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0.0, height: 4.0)
shadowLayer.shadowRadius = 6.0
shadowLayer.shadowOpacity = 0.25
shadowLayer.shadowPath = mask.path

self.layer.insertSublayer(shadowLayer, at: 0)
self.layer.insertSublayer(mask, at: 1)

Answer 20

Well if you don't want to change your nibs and view hierarchy as suggested David C. this method will do it for you. To add rounded corners and shadow to your UIImageView just use this method, for example:

[Utils roundCornersForImageView:myImageView withCornerRadius:6.0 
andShadowOffset:2.0];

(!) For performance reasons I don't think it is a good idea to use this code in something like UITableView, since this code changes view hierarchy. So I will suggest to change your nib and add a container view for shadow effect and use Davic C. code.

+ (void)roundCornersForImageView:(UIImageView *)imageView 
withCornerRadius:(float)cornerRadius andShadowOffset:(float)shadowOffset
{
    const float CORNER_RADIUS = cornerRadius;
    const float BORDER_WIDTH = 1.0; 
    const float SHADOW_OFFSET = shadowOffset;
    const float SHADOW_OPACITY = 0.8;
    const float SHADOW_RADIUS = 3.0;

    //Our old image now is just background image view with shadow
    UIImageView *backgroundImageView = imageView;
    UIView *superView = backgroundImageView.superview;

    //Make wider actual visible rect taking into account shadow
    //offset
    CGRect oldBackgroundFrame = backgroundImageView.frame;
    CGRect newBackgroundFrame = CGRectMake(oldBackgroundFrame.origin.x, oldBackgroundFrame.origin.y, oldBackgroundFrame.size.width + SHADOW_OFFSET, oldBackgroundFrame.size.height + SHADOW_OFFSET);
    [backgroundImageView removeFromSuperview];
    backgroundImageView.frame = newBackgroundFrame;        

    //Make new UIImageView with rounded corners and put our old image
    CGRect frameForRoundedImageView = CGRectMake(0, 0, oldBackgroundFrame.size.width, oldBackgroundFrame.size.height);
    UIImageView *roundedImageView = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:frameForRoundedImageView];
    roundedImageView.image = imageView.image;
    [roundedImageView.layer setCornerRadius:CORNER_RADIUS];
    [roundedImageView.layer setBorderColor:[UIColor lightGrayColor].CGColor];        
    [roundedImageView.layer setBorderWidth:BORDER_WIDTH]; 
    [roundedImageView.layer setMasksToBounds:YES];

    //Set shadow preferences
    [backgroundImageView setImage:nil];
    [backgroundImageView.layer setShadowColor:[UIColor blackColor].CGColor];
    [backgroundImageView.layer setShadowOpacity:SHADOW_OPACITY];
    [backgroundImageView.layer setShadowRadius:SHADOW_RADIUS];
    [backgroundImageView.layer setShadowOffset:CGSizeMake(SHADOW_OFFSET, SHADOW_OFFSET)];   

    //Add out two image views back to the view hierarchy.
    [backgroundImageView addSubview:roundedImageView];
    [superView addSubview:backgroundImageView];   
}    

Answer 21

Old thread still current...

I've edited Daniel Gindi's method to make it possible to use it with buttons etc. as well. If anyone needs rounded corners or wants to combine round corners and a border it has to be set on the view's layer which is passed to this method. I've also set the rasterization to speed it up a little.

+ (UIView*)putView:(UIView*)view insideShadowWithColor:(CGColorRef)color 
                                 andRadius:(CGFloat)shadowRadius 
                                 andOffset:(CGSize)shadowOffset 
                                 andOpacity:(CGFloat)shadowOpacity
{
    // Must have same position like "view"
    UIView *shadow = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:view.frame]; 

    shadow.layer.contentsScale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;
    shadow.userInteractionEnabled = YES; // Modify this if needed
    shadow.layer.shadowColor = color;
    shadow.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset;
    shadow.layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius;
    shadow.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    shadow.clipsToBounds = NO;
    shadow.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity;
    shadow.layer.rasterizationScale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;
    shadow.layer.shouldRasterize = YES;

    [view.superview insertSubview:shadow belowSubview:view];
    [shadow addSubview:view];

    // Move view to the top left corner inside the shadowview 
    // ---> Buttons etc are working again :)
    view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height);

    return shadow;
}

Answer 22

The following worked best for me (this code lies in UIView extension, so self denotes some UIView to which we must add a shadow and round corner)

- (void)addShadowViewWithCornerRadius:(CGFloat)radius {

UIView *container = self.superview;

if (!container) {
    return;
}

UIView *shadowView = [[UIView alloc] init];
shadowView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
shadowView.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];
shadowView.layer.cornerRadius = radius;
shadowView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;

[container addSubview:shadowView];
[container bringSubviewToFront:shadowView];

[container addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:shadowView

                                                      attribute:NSLayoutAttributeWidth
                                                     multiplier:1.0
                                                       constant:0.0]];
[container addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:shadowView

                                                       constant:2.0]];

                                                       constant:0.0]];
[container addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:shadowView
                                                      attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop
                                                      relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
                                                         toItem:self
                                                      attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop
                                                     multiplier:1.0
                                                       constant:2.0]];
[container sendSubviewToBack:shadowView];
}

The main difference between this and other code samples is that this adds the shadow view as a sibling view (as against adding the current view as subview of shadow view), thereby eliminating the need to modify the existing view hierarchy in any way.

Answer 23

Swift 4 Solution for making UICollectionViewCell round and adding Shadows, without any extensions and complications :)

Note: For simple views e.g Buttons. See the @suragch's Answer in this post. https://stackoverflow.com/a/34984063/7698092. Tested successfully for buttons

In case if any one still struggling to round the corners and add shadows at the same time. Although this solution works with UICollectionViewCell, it can be generalized to any view.

This technique worked for me without making any extensions and all the complicated stuff. I am working with storyBoard.

Technique

You must add a UIView (lets say it "containerView") inside your UICollectionViewCell in storyBoard and add all the required views (buttons, images etc) inside this containerView. See the Screenshot.

Connect the outlet for containerView. Add following lines of code in CellforItemAtIndexPath delegate function.

//adds shadow to the layer of cell

cell.layer.cornerRadius = 3.0
    cell.layer.masksToBounds = false
    cell.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
    cell.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: 0)
    cell.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.6

//makes the cell round 

let containerView = cell.containerView!
    containerView.layer.cornerRadius = 8
    containerView.clipsToBounds = true

Output

See the simulator Screenshot

Answer 24

daniel.gindi's answer above did the trick for me! (+1 daniel) However, I had to make minor adjustments - change the shadowFrame size to be same as view's frame size, and enable user interaction. Here's the updated code:

+ (UIView*)putView:(UIView*)view insideShadowWithColor:(UIColor*)color andRadius:(CGFloat)shadowRadius andOffset:(CGSize)shadowOffset andOpacity:(CGFloat)shadowOpacity
{
    CGRect shadowFrame; // Modify this if needed

    // Modified this line
    shadowFrame.size = CGSizeMake(view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height);

    shadowFrame.origin.x = 0.f;
    shadowFrame.origin.y = 0.f;
    UIView * shadow = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:shadowFrame];

    // Modified this line
    shadow.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
    shadow.layer.shadowColor = color.CGColor;
    shadow.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset;
    shadow.layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius;
    shadow.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    shadow.clipsToBounds = NO;
    shadow.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity;

    [shadow addSubview:view];
    return shadow;
}

I would like to add that in my case, I was trying to add this to a 3rd party view controller, i.e. I did not have direct control over the code. So, here's how I used the function above:

UIView *shadow = [self putView:vc.view 
         insideShadowWithColor:[UIColor blackColor]
                     andRadius:5.0 
                     andOffset:CGSizeMake(0.0, 0.0) 
                    andOpacity:1.0];
vc.view = shadow;
vc.view.layer.cornerRadius = 5.0;
vc.view.layer.masksToBounds = YES;

Answer 25

I make some changes to the code of daniel.gindi

This is all you need to make it work.

+ (void)putView:(UIView*)view insideShadowWithColor:(UIColor*)color andBlur:         (CGFloat)blur andOffset:(CGSize)shadowOffset andOpacity:(CGFloat)shadowOpacity
{
    CGRect shadowFrame = view.frame;
    UIView * shadow = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:shadowFrame];
    shadow.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
    shadow.userInteractionEnabled = YES; // Modify this if needed
    shadow.layer.shadowColor = color.CGColor;
    shadow.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset;
    shadow.layer.shadowRadius = blur;
    shadow.layer.cornerRadius = view.layer.cornerRadius;
    shadow.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    shadow.clipsToBounds = NO;
    shadow.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity;
    [view.superview insertSubview:shadow belowSubview:view];
}

Answer 26

You need to use two UIViews to achieve this. One UIView will work like shadow and other one will work for rounded border.

Here is a code snippet a Class Method with a help of a protocol:

@implementation UIMethods

+ (UIView *)genComposeButton:(UIViewController <UIComposeButtonDelegate> *)observer;
{
    UIView *shadow = [[UIView alloc]init];
    shadow.layer.cornerRadius = 5.0;
    shadow.layer.shadowColor = [[UIColor blackColor] CGColor];
    shadow.layer.shadowOpacity = 1.0;
    shadow.layer.shadowRadius = 10.0;
    shadow.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0.0f, -0.5f);

    UIButton *btnCompose = [[UIButton alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0,60, 60)];
    [btnCompose setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
    btnCompose.layer.cornerRadius = 30;
    btnCompose.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
    [btnCompose setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"60x60"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [btnCompose addTarget:observer action:@selector(btnCompose_click:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
    [shadow addSubview:btnCompose];
    return shadow;
}

In the code above btnCompose_click: will become a @required delegate method which will fire on the button click.

And here I added a button to my UIViewController like this:

UIView *btnCompose = [UIMethods genComposeButton:self];
btnCompose.frame = CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width - 75,
                          self.view.frame.size.height - 75,
                          60, 60);
[self.view addSubview:btnCompose];

The result will look like this:

I have tried so many solutions from this post and ended up with the below solution. This is full proof solution unless you need to drop shadow on a clear color view.

- (void)addShadowWithRadius:(CGFloat)shadowRadius withOpacity:(CGFloat)shadowOpacity withOffset:(CGSize)shadowOffset withColor:(UIColor *)shadowColor withCornerradius:(CGFloat)cornerRadius
{
    UIView *viewShadow = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:self.frame];
    viewShadow.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    viewShadow.layer.shadowColor = shadowColor.CGColor;
    viewShadow.layer.shadowOffset = shadowOffset;
    viewShadow.layer.shadowRadius = shadowRadius;
    viewShadow.layer.shadowOpacity = shadowOpacity;
    viewShadow.layer.cornerRadius = cornerRadius;
    viewShadow.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    [self.superview insertSubview:viewShadow belowSubview:self];

    [viewShadow setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints:NO];
    [self.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeWidth relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:self attribute:NSLayoutAttributeWidth multiplier:1.0 constant:0]];
    [self.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:self attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight multiplier:1.0 constant:0]];
    [self.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterX multiplier:1.0 constant:0]];
    [self.superview addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterY relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:viewShadow attribute:NSLayoutAttributeCenterY multiplier:1.0 constant:0]];
    [self layoutIfNeeded];

    self.layer.cornerRadius = cornerRadius;
    self.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
}

Answer 29

The answer provided by Evan Mulawski will work perfectly. The catch is that you have to set the background color for the view to clearColor and the masksToBounds property to NO.

You can set whatever color you want for the view, set it like

v.layer.backgroundColor = your color;

Hope this helps..

Answer 30

This is how you do it, with rounded corners and rounded shadows without bothering with paths.

//Inner view with content
[imageView.layer setBorderColor:[[UIColor lightGrayColor] CGColor]];
[imageView.layer setBorderWidth:1.0f];
[imageView.layer setCornerRadius:8.0f];
[imageView.layer setMasksToBounds:YES];

//Outer view with shadow
UIView* shadowContainer = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:imageView.frame];
[shadowContainer.layer setMasksToBounds:NO];
[shadowContainer.layer setShadowColor:[[UIColor blackColor] CGColor]];
[shadowContainer.layer setShadowOpacity:0.6f];
[shadowContainer.layer setShadowRadius:2.0f];
[shadowContainer.layer setShadowOffset: CGSizeMake(0.0f, 2.0f)];

[shadowContainer addSubview:imageView];

The view with content, in my case a UIImageView, has a corner radius and therefore has to mask to bounds.

We create another equally sized view for the shadows, set it's maskToBounds to NO and then add the content view to the container view (e.g. shadowContainer).

Answer 31

I write this UIView category method to solve this problem, uses separate views for the shadow and the corner radius.

-(UIView *)shadowedWrapViewWithBounds:(CGRect)bounds {
UIView *baseView = [[UIView alloc] init];
baseView.bounds = bounds;
baseView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
baseView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor blackColor].CGColor;
baseView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 0);
baseView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
baseView.layer.shadowRadius = 4.0;

// improve performance
baseView.layer.shadowPath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:baseView.bounds cornerRadius:4].CGPath;
baseView.layer.shouldRasterize = YES;
baseView.layer.rasterizationScale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;

[baseView addSubview:self];
//use Masonry autolayout, self can set corner radius
[self makeConstraints:^(MASConstraintMaker *make) {
    make.edges.equalTo(baseView);
}];

return baseView;
}

Answer 33

If you specifically want custom rounded corners for UIButtons, there are many different ways of achieving that.

The following code examples (thanks to Erica) give a nice overview over all the possibilities.

Rounded corners button before iOS 15

Before iOS 15, you can make a rounded corners button by setting layer.cornerRadius, backgroundColor, and setTitleColor.

let button = UIButton(type: .system)
button.setTitle("Button", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(.white, for: .normal)
button.backgroundColor = .systemPink
button.layer.cornerRadius = 8

button.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(
  top: 10,
  left: 20,
  bottom: 10,
  right: 20
)

Capsule button

If we increase the corner radius with a large enough value, you can create a capsule-style button. To create a capsule style button, we set corner radius equals the half of a button height. Since a button height might vary based on title size or layout, I usually create a UIButton subclass for a capsule style.

class CapsuleButton: UIButton {
  override func layoutSubviews() {
    super.layoutSubviews()
    let height = bounds.height
    layer.cornerRadius = height/2
  }
}

let capsule = CapsuleButton(type: .system)
capsule.setTitle("Button", for: .normal)
capsule.setTitleColor(.white, for: .normal)
capsule.backgroundColor = .systemPink
capsule.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(
  top: 10,
  left: 20,
  bottom: 10,
  right: 20
)

Smooth corners

If you want to replicate Apple smooth corners, you can also do that with the cornerCurve property. To create a continuous smooth corner, you set layer.cornerCurve of a button to .continuous.

let button = UIButton(type: .system)
button.setTitle("Button", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(.white, for: .normal)
button.backgroundColor = .systemPink

Rounded corners button in iOS 15 using UIButton.Configuration

In iOS 15, Apple introduces a new way to customize a button via UIButton.Configuration.

var configuration = UIButton.Configuration.filled()

configuration.title = "Button"
configuration.baseBackgroundColor = UIColor.systemPink
configuration.contentInsets = NSDirectionalEdgeInsets(
  top: 10,
  leading: 20,
  bottom: 10,
  trailing: 20
)

let button = UIButton(configuration: configuration, primaryAction: nil)

Control corner radius using cornerStyle

UIButton.Configuration has many built-in corner styles for you to choose from. You can set this with the cornerStyle property.

configuration.cornerStyle = .small
configuration.cornerStyle = .medium
configuration.cornerStyle = .large
configuration.cornerStyle = .capsule

Custom corner radius

If you want something more unique, you can specify the corner radius via cornerRadius of UIBackgroundConfiguration.

var configuration = UIButton.Configuration.filled()
configuration.title = "Button"
configuration.baseBackgroundColor = UIColor.systemPink
configuration.contentInsets = NSDirectionalEdgeInsets(
  top: 10,
  leading: 20,
  bottom: 10,
  trailing: 20
)
configuration.background.cornerRadius = 20

configuration.cornerStyle = .fixed


let button = UIButton(configuration: configuration, primaryAction: nil)

Answer 34

You need add masksToBounds = true for combined between corderRadius shadowRadius.

button.layer.masksToBounds = false;

Answer 35

var shadows = UIView()
shadows.frame = view.frame
shadows.clipsToBounds = false
view.addSubview(shadows)


let shadowPath0 = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: shadows.bounds, cornerRadius: 10)
let layer0 = CALayer()
layer0.shadowPath = shadowPath0.cgPath
layer0.shadowColor = UIColor(red: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 0.23).cgColor
layer0.shadowOpacity = 1
layer0.shadowRadius = 6
layer0.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0, height: 3)
layer0.bounds = shadows.bounds
layer0.position = shadows.center

shadows.layer.addSublayer(layer0)
