is it possible to have an image as background of a custom table cell?

[ishaq]

Hi,

 

I am writing my custom cell class and was wondering whether is it possible to use an image as background of the cell?

 

I am trying to make a similar look at feel as in 'Notes' application (i.e. notebook style).

 

any tips are much appreciated.

let me rephrase, can I set the background of a LABEL to be transparent?

 

I have tried

 

label.backgroundColor = [uIColor clearColor];

 

it doesn't help

[stroke]

label.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0 alpha:0];
