The settings in question

This is for a UIButton specifically. I understand that the alignment options pertain to the label inside the UIButton, but what does the 'content' settings do? They seem like they correspond to the setEnabled:, setSelected:, setHighlighted: methods of the UIButton class, however clicking Highlighted or Selected doesn't seem to change the button's behavior outside of interface builder. Also, what would be the use-case for having a button always show highlighted or selected?
