Switch Class change background color on event

I have some simple on/off switches that I would like to alter the background color depending on the state. If Off background red, if on background green. The font color works for the switches but whenever I try to use Backgroundcolor designerapp tells me unrecognized property for the Switch class.

The only color control for uiswitch() is font color. There is also no ability to add graphics to uiswitch()
This is different than the older uicontrol which offered more customization.
