# Changing pickerView Background Color and text color

Objective-C

//Displays the country pickerView with black background and white text
[self. countryPicker setValue:[UIColor whiteColor] forKey:@"textColor"];
[self. countryPicker setValue:[UIColor blackColor] forKey:@"backgroundColor"];

Swift

let color1 = UIColor(colorLiteralRed: 1, green: 1, blue: 1, alpha: 1)
let color2 = UIColor(colorLiteralRed: 0, green: 0, blue: 0, alpha: 1)
pickerView2.setValue(color1, forKey: "textColor")
pickerView2.setValue(color2, forKey: "backgroundColor")
