Same RGB but different color for cell, header background in TableView

Question

I have a headerView for a cell and a cell containing a collectionView. I wish to make both have a background color of

UIColor(red: 0.898, green: 0.898, blue: 0.898, alpha: 1.0)

I set both headerView's background color and the cell and its collectionView's background color with the color above. However, when I run the code, I get a little contrast in color between the headerView and the tableView cell. I'm not sure why. I used the same UIColor.

You can see the subtle difference.

Can you attach the full code of the Views configuration? Maybe you have other properties on the view itself that are different — CloudBalancing, Aug 04 '21 at 05:56
You should set color by adding /255 like : `UIColor(red: 0.898/255, green: 0.898/255, blue: 0.898/255, alpha: 1.0)` — Kudos, Aug 04 '21 at 06:10
@Kudos No absolutely not. The values are already in between 0-1 range. — Desdenova, Aug 04 '21 at 06:33

You also need to check out cell contentView, cells and its content views for your collection view.

If this still doesn't help, try examining the view hierarchy to check which view background wasn't changed.

Yes, the problem was that I was setting the cell's background's color. What I needed to do was set the cell's content view's background color instead. – infiniteObj Aug 06 '21 at 03:09
