I am using a custom tableviewcell in one of my view's. I have decided to add a UISwitch to this cell to enable the user to delete multiple row's at once.
Normally when the user selects a row and taps my delete button I have a UIAlert pop up for confirmation and after that the alert clickedButtonAtIndex method handles the outcome. In that method I get the indexpath ( [self.myTableView indexPathForSelectedRow] ) and delete (or not) accordingly.
So basically as the title states instead of using the indexPath to fall into my delete statement, I need to check to see if self.myTableView.myCell.mySwitch.on is TRUE. Can anyone point me in the right direction for doing this? I will need to iterate through all rows in the tableview and for each row where the state is on it needs to be removed.
Thanks.
you should iterate through your cells using a nested loop ( or a single loop if you have only one section) and cellForRowAtIndexPath:.if you see a cell's switch.on = TRUE save it's indexPath in an array by calling indexPathForCell:. after you're done iterating through your cells, call deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:withRowAnimation: with the array previously created.

I am using a UITableView to display some items and i have implemented a UISearchBar to this UITableView.
If the user presses the cell, a checkmark appears (accessory type of the cell is changed) and when pressed again the checkmark accessory disappears.
My problem is when the user searches using the search bar, all the checked cells are not checked anymore, no more checked cells at all.
I've been trying to fix this and searching for it for a while but no results ...
Any help ??
Thanks you.
That is because your table view where you put the checkmarks and the table view that you see after you enter something in the search bar is not same. To have the same check marks on the search table view cells, you need to explicitly add the checkmarks.
I can't see the way you are adding and removing check marks. So, in theory, what you need is a way to know which cells have check marks. So, let's assume you have an array of items and a parallel array which holds the 1 or 0 to signal if the items have the check marks when 1 means check marked and 0 means no check mark.
Let's call this parallel array, checkMarkSignalArray. Now, in your cellForRowAtIndexPath method, you can do something like-
if(self.resultSearchController.active){
cell.textLabel.text = [self.filteredItemsArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
if([self.checkMarkSignalArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]){
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
}
}
i have the indexPath number... i need to remove the cell accessory from that cell based on the number in the variable i have?
NSInteger *removeAccessoryFrom = 3;
[studentTableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:removeAccessoryFrom].accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
It doesn't work like that. You need to reload the table data (either for the whole table or for just this row) and, inside cellForRowAtIndexPath, set the accessoryType to UITableViewCellAccessoryNone conditionally. In other words, you keep a list, or have some other way of knowing, at every moment, and for the entire table, exactly what cells get exactly what accessory. That way, any time cellForRowAtIndexPath is called, you can configure this cell for this index path correctly.
I have a UITableView with gets populated from a backing array every time cellForRowAtIndexPath is called. The user can either go Back (via the nav bar) or they must submit the tableview's dataset to a server. Our GUI team wants the interface designed with a 'Done' button as the last cell in the table row in order to submit the dataset. Right now, numberOfRowsInSection is returning [myArray count] and I could conceivably alter the backing array with a "ghost" record for the done button, or simply return [myArray count] + 1 and catch the mis-matched array count in cellForRowAtIndexPath. Both ways, however, seem like trouble down the road. What's the best way to implement this?
Either put the button in the footer for the tableview, or mess with the row count. I've used both methods, just depends how much that last cell needs to look like the rest of the rows (or not look like them, in the case of using the footer)
Is there a way to move the highlighted tableviewcell programatically. If I wanted to highlight cell number 3 and then highlight cell number 4 instead, based on something the user did in the detail view of my split view controller, can I do this?
Is there a way I can get the indexpath for the row two below one that I have?
Thanks!
You can do this via the UITableView selectRowAtIndexPath:animated:scrollPosition: method.
In terms of getting the "next" row from the indexPath, you can simply use the indexPath.row property (as supplied from your UITableViewDelegate's tableView:didDeselectRowAtIndexPath: method) as the basis for the selected row.
I have a NSTableView that contains a NSButtonCell in one of the columns. I can set up the action that is called when the button is clicked in Interface Builder fine, but I can't find anyway to determine which row in the table that the button exists in. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks. :)
The cell for a particular column is reused throughout the whole table so there isn't one cell per row by default. You can get the the row that was clicked on though in your action method by sending the clickedRow message to the cell's table view.
NSInteger clickedRowIndex = [tableView clickedRow];
