Change text color of buttons from black to white and then revert back

I have ten buttons in a slide out menu. How do I change the text color of the ten buttons from black to white by selection and then revert back to the original state when a user clicks on another button.

I am looping through the buttons one by one and I used the code

@IBAction func onBtnClick(sender: UIButton) {

        hmImg.hidden = true
    editprofileImg.hidden = true
    cntctsReqImg.hidden = true
    cntctsManImg.hidden = true
    preferencesImg.hidden = true
    timeRuleImg.hidden = true
    helpImg.hidden = true
    logoutImg.hidden = true


    var a: NSInteger = sender.tag

    if a == 1
    {


        homeBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState:UIControlState.Normal)
        hmImg.hidden = false


        }

    else if a == 2
    {
        editProfileBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        editprofileImg.hidden = false

    }
   else if a == 3
    {
        cntctsRequetsBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        cntctsReqImg.hidden = false

    }

   else if a == 4


    {
        cntctMangBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
         cntctsManImg.hidden = false

    }
 else   if a == 5
    {
        preferenceBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        preferencesImg.hidden = false
               }

  else  if a == 6
    {
        timeruleBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        timeRuleImg.hidden = false

    }

  else  if a == 7
    {
        helpBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
        helpImg.hidden = false

    }


  else  if a == 8
    {
        logoutBtn.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)

        logoutImg.hidden = false

    }

the problem with this state is the button color remains white when I select other buttons. I want to change the text color to black when a user selects another button

control state for selection is hardly present for a few seconds when I click on the button

Try this:

let buttons = [homeBtn, editProfileBtn, ...]
let images [hmImg, ....]
func selectItemAtIndex(index:Int) {
    buttons.forEach {
      $0.setTitleColor(UIColor.blackColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
   }  
   images.forEach {
       $0.hidden = true 
   }  
   buttons[index].setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState: UIControlState.Normal)
   images[index].hidden = false   
}
@IBAction func onBtnClick(sender: UIButton) {
    let index = sender.tag
    selectItemAtIndex(index - 1) // your tags is 1 based.
}

Or you may use a different way which involves less looping.

let images [hmImg, ....]
var currentBtn: UIButton!
var currentImg: UIImageView!
@IBAction func onBtnClick(sender: UIButton) {
   currentBtn?.setTitleColor(UIColor.blackColor(), forState:UIControlState.Normal)
    sender.setTitleColor(UIColor.whiteColor(), forState:UIControlState.Normal)
    currentBtn = sender
    let index = sender.tag - 1 // one based tages
    currentImg?.hidden = true
    currentImg = images[index]
    currentImg.hidden = false
}
