Setting background color of grouped UITableViewCell

I have a grouped UITableView. I am trying to make a custom UITableViewCell background:

 - (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewCellStyle)style reuseIdentifier:(NSString *)reuseIdentifier
{
    self = [super initWithStyle:style reuseIdentifier:reuseIdentifier];
    if (self) {

        self.contentView.opaque = YES;
        self.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"rowbg@2x"]];

        //Change Indicator
        CGRect rect;
        rect = CGRectMake(0, 0, 10, 50);
        changeImageIndicator = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        [self.contentView addSubview: changeImageIndicator];

        //Symbol
        rect = CGRectMake(10, 10, 200, 20);
        symbolLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        symbolLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
        symbolLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:22];
        symbolLabe开发者_C百科l.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:0.0 blue:0.0 alpha:1.0];
        symbolLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
        [self.contentView addSubview: symbolLabel];

        //Company
        rect = CGRectMake(10, 30, 180, 20);
        companyLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        companyLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
        companyLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:13];
        companyLabel.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
        companyLabel.minimumFontSize = 10.0; 
        companyLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
        companyLabel.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:118.0/255.0 green:118.0/255.0 blue:118.0/255.0 alpha:1.0];
        [self.contentView addSubview: companyLabel];

        //Price
        rect = CGRectMake(190, 10, 100, 20);
        priceLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        priceLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentRight;
        priceLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:20];
        priceLabel.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:0.0 blue:0.0 alpha:1.0];
        priceLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
        [self.contentView addSubview: priceLabel];

        //Change
        rect = CGRectMake(190, 30, 100, 20);
        changeLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
        changeLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentRight;
        changeLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:15];
        changeLabel.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:0.0 blue:0.0 alpha:1.0];
        changeLabel.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
        changeLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
        changeLabel.minimumFontSize = 10.0; //adjust to preference obviously

        [self.contentView addSubview: changeLabel];
    }
    return self;
}

The background color bleeds past the rounded corners. See image:

How can I make this not bleed?

This works for iOS 3.0 and later:

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
}

What about self.tableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone; ?

This worked for me when nothing else did. Set the background color in IB to the grouped Table view color (default). Then in code, set the color to clearColor. I also have the cells marked opaque=NO and clearsContextBeforeDrawing=NO, but those settings alone didn't change anything until I added the clearColor by code – Bdebeez

self.contentView.superview.opaque = YES; self.contentView.superview.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"rowbg@2x"]];

Have you tried setting the backgroundColor of the backgroundView rather than the contentView?

I had to create a rounded top, middle and button graphic image and set it to the background view of the cell depending on which row it is.

Set the cell background color in the tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:

cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage  imageNamed:@"Gradient.png"]];
