Table View insetGrouped Bug - ios

I have expandable table view cells, everything works, except animation. I have one cell with UISwitch, when I tap on it, other cells appear but with some view movements, same thing when I hide these cells when I tap on UISwitch.
I'm using insetGroup Table View and these movements make view square instead of round.
I want to keep animation, I tried reloadSections(IndexSet(integer: 0), with: .fade) seems like a solution, but it also reloads my header, but I don't want that.
My cellForRowAt func:
internal func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "RemindersCell", for: indexPath) as! RemindersCell
cell.switchReminder.isOn = remindersAllowed ? true : false
cell.switchReminder.addTarget(self, action: #selector(switchTapped(sender:)), for: .touchUpInside)
return cell
}
My numberOfRowsInSection func:
internal func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return remindersAllowed ? 5 : 1
}
My func for UISwitch:
#objc private func switchTapped(sender: UISwitch) {
if !remindersAllowed {
// Add
remindersAllowed = true
} else {
// Delete
remindersAllowed = false
}
tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.reloadSections(IndexSet(integer: 0), with: .none)
tableView.endUpdates()
}
Default remindersAllowed is true, when I switch it becomes false and hides cells. I really don't understand what the problem is, any help would be appreciated!
The gif shows this bug when I hide the cells.

you can use activate cell as a tableviewheader

You can try this code to delete system reload section animation and reload section with fade animation:
tableView.reloadData()
tableView.reloadSections(IndexSet(integer: 0), with: .fade)

UITableView Cell Does Not Become First Responder When Outside of Current View

I have a TableViewController which displays to-do list items. In the controller I have made a button which when pressed creates a new TableViewCell at the bottom which has a UITextView along with other elements.
Till now this is what I have managed to do -
Create a new cell upon button tap
Make the newly created cell's text view first responder
However, from what I have observed everything is working fine except when the last cell in the table is not visible, i.e., it is below the frame. In that case the cell gets created but is not made the first responder or some other cell's text view gets the cursor.
See the output here -
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mRN8MEO5HBJ3ICUiRE0Yc4ib8tp62MYc/view?usp=sharing
Here is the code -
import UIKit
class TableViewController: UITableViewController, InboxCellDelegate {
var cell = InboxCell()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations
// self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = false
// Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
// self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem
tableView.register(UINib(nibName: "InboxCell", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "InboxCell")
tableView.rowHeight = UITableView.automaticDimension
tableView.estimatedRowHeight = 50
}
#IBAction func inboxAddPressed(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
addRowToEnd()
}
func addRowToEnd() {
Task.tasks.append("")
tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.insertRows(at: [IndexPath(row: Task.tasks.count - 1, section: 0)], with: .automatic)
tableView.endUpdates()
cell.inboxTaskTextView.becomeFirstResponder()
}
func didChangeText(text: String?, cell: InboxCell) {
self.tableView.beginUpdates()
self.tableView.endUpdates()
}
// MARK: - Table view data source
override func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of sections
return 1
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of rows
return Task.tasks.count
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "InboxCell", for: indexPath) as! InboxCell
// Configure the cell...
cell.delegate = self
cell.inboxTaskTextView.text = Task.tasks[indexPath.row]
return cell
}
// Override to support conditional editing of the table view.
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
// Return false if you do not want the specified item to be editable.
return true
}
// Override to support editing the table view.
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCell.EditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if editingStyle == .delete {
tableView.beginUpdates()
Task.tasks.remove(at: indexPath.row)
tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .automatic)
tableView.endUpdates()
}
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return UITableView.automaticDimension
}
}
I have tried to scroll to the bottom of the table first and then making the newly created cell first responder but that didn't work. In that case only the very first cell created becomes the first responder while the subsequent cells are created but the cursor remains in the very first cell.
Here is the block of code I used for scrolling before cell.inboxTaskTextView.becomeFirstResponder() -
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.tableView.reloadData()
let indexPath = IndexPath(row: Task.tasks.count - 1, section: 0)
self.tableView.scrollToRow(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)
}
Edit -
After having tried for a while this is the closest I have got to a solution.
After Task.tasks.append("") I have added the following code which scrolls down the view to the bottom -
if tableView.contentSize.height >= tableView.frame.size.height {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.tableView.reloadData()
let indexPath = IndexPath(row: Task.tasks.count - 1, section: 0)
self.tableView.scrollToRow(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)
}
}
In this case the newly created cell becomes first responder but only momentarily. The keyboard doesn't even appear fully before it gets dismissed automatically in a flash. This happens only for cells that are created below the fold - i.e. when the table view has to scroll down and then create a new cell.
Try to keep it simple first. Put a breakpoint or print("indexPath.row = \(indexPath.row)") at the beginning of cellForRow UITableViewDataSource method that you implemented already.
Add the new task and see if your cellForRow is being called for the indexPath corresponding to your new cell.
If not - you may have to scroll the tableView up at least 44points or whatever is needed to reach the area where the new cell should already be displayed. If you don't do that - the cell might not be created yet, and cell most probably refers to the last cell in the table view (or it could also be referring to a cell in the pool if some logic is not implemented correctly). So the new cell must be in the visible area before making its UITextField or UITextView become first responder.
If you know that cell is already visible - better to get an reference to it via
let index = IndexPath(row: rowForNewCell, section: 0)
let cell = self.table.cellForRow(at: index)
Finally call:
cell.inboxTaskTextView.becomeFirstResponder()

UITableView: how stop selection while swipe the table view cell

I have swipe to delete code here and it my custom TableViewCell I have implemented setSelected method like below ..
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell.EditingStyle {
// tableView.allowsSelectionDuringEditing = false
if tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow != nil, tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow == indexPath {
return UITableViewCell.EditingStyle.none
}
return UITableViewCell.EditingStyle.delete
}
override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
//some code here
}
The logic will do tableview expand collapse based on selection ..but the problem here is if I swipe to delete setSelected also triggers.. not sure how to prevent that any help would be appreciated..
Try this in cellForRow
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell_identifier", for: indexPath)
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCell.SelectionStyle.none
//or this based on swift version
cell.selectionStyle = .none
return cell
I'm not sure what the appearance you are going for but this will produce the same effect.
If swipe is across the whole screen it will trigger the delete without button press.
If half swipe you can present buttons for user to choose options.
Half swipe (Shows options):
Full swipe (Triggers delete button):
Try adding these two tableView delegate methods for a swipe to delete
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
// Determine which rows should be editable
return true
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath:
IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let button1 = UITableViewRowAction(style: .default, title: "Delete") {
action, indexPath in
print("delete pressed")
// Consider alert to confirm that it was intentionally deleted
}
button1.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
// Create any buttons you want
return [button1]
}
I tried it with and without your tableView method and it seemed to work fine both ways but I don't think your method is necessary if you choose this route
Hope this helps

When deleting row using trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt strange missing other rows issue

I am trying to delete row from UITableView by using trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt function.
The row gets deleted and disappears. This part is ok.
But next rows that are coming to the screen or when I swipe down the same amount as the rows been deleted are not even loaded on the tableView.

cell.backgroundColor = .red

let hide = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Hide") { action, view, completion in
self.filteredProducts.remove(at: indexPath.row)
tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .automatic)
completion(true)
}
hide.image = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "hdie_product")
hide.backgroundColor = .midGrey
let conf = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [hide])
return conf
}
The code you showed obviously works, thus the problem is elsewhere.
Without other code I suspect that the problem is because table view cells are re-used: When you scroll your table view, some cells are scrolled out of view and can be reused. Cells that are scrolled in are either re-used cells or new cells.
In any case, the table view datasource function tableView(_:cellForRowAt:) must be used to configure the displayed cells.
It seems too me that you do not configure the cells in tableView(_:cellForRowAt:).
If so, re-used cells look as the were when they have been scrolled out, but new cells are simply blank.
So I suggest to check if you really configure all the cells in tableView(_:cellForRowAt:) correctly.
The issue was that I did not call super.prepareForReuse() inside TablewViewCell
override func prepareForReuse() {
super.prepareForReuse() // this was missing
}

Swift animate UITableViewCell expanding height constraint [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
Collapsable Table Cells [Swift 3] [duplicate]
(1 answer)
Closed 5 years ago.
I have a TableView with a static cell inside which I would like to expand when a button has been pressed. There is a container view inside the cell, the constraints have been set up correctly but I am not sure how to actually animate the cell expanding as it requires me to refresh the table view to update the constraints and expand the cell.
Currently when I call expandContainerView it doesn't animate, because I am calling self.tableView.reloadData.
Here is the code that I have used to expand the cell
#objc private func expandContainerView(notification: NSNotification) {
self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
UIView.animate(withDuration: 2.0, delay: 0.0, options: .curveEaseOut, animations: {
self.containerHeightConstraint.constant = 410
self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
self.tableView.reloadData()
}, completion: nil)
}
And here is my height for each row at index code
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}
Try without an animation block:
containerHeightConstraint.constant = 410
tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.endUpdates()
You can only reload cell which you want to expand using below code. I added in the didSelectRowAt but you can add same code in button action method.
Set expandCell variable to true for changing height of cell when reloading.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
// Expand View
self.expandCell = true
self.tableView.beginUpdates()
self.tableView.reloadRows(at: [indexPath], with: UITableViewRowAnimation.automatic)
self.tableView.endUpdates()
}
You need specify height to expand cell view else it will show default height.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
if indexPath.row == expandRowIndex && self.expandCell {
return 200
}
return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}
Note : No need of animation for this. Expansion of view animation at time of reloading cell

Swift What is the best way to replace content in TableViewCell

I want to do something like in the GIF
I tried 2 ways, one was hiding the elements on selecting the row and showing others, but that's not really elegant and doesn't work very well
and second was creating 2 views, one with labels, another with buttons, adding them as subviews to cell.contentView but that caused some issues with other cells as they were displaying wrong data. How can I recreate something like this?
I think something like this would work:
Use 2 different UITableViewCells: add them to the table view in your storyboard and design them separately, also you can use 2 different UITableViewCell subclasses for them
Have an array in the tableview's datasource class that will define the type of the cell from each row (e.g. the simplest solution would be an array of integers, with values: 0 representing the first cell, 1 representing the second cell)
Initialise that array with 0s for each row
In tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell :
if cellTypes[indexPath.row] == 0 --> return a cell of first type
if cellTypes[indexPath.row] == 1 --> return a cell of the second type
In tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) :
switch the cell type in the array
reload the row with animation, e.g. you can use .fade or .left or .right etc.
tableView.reloadRows(at: [indexPath], with: .fade)
EDIT: Your solution is also a good one, but it can cause problems when the cells are dequeued, so if a cell with the wrong subviews is dequeued then you need to switch the subviews back in the cellForRowAt indexPath datasource method.
EDIT2: I took some time and I have tried my solution in Xcode. Here is the code of my tableview controller:
class TableViewController: UITableViewController {
private var cellTypes: [Int] = [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
public override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.cellTypes.count
}
public override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return 56.0
}
public override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
if self.cellTypes[indexPath.row] == 1 {
return tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell1", for: indexPath)[![enter image description here][1]][1]
} else {
return tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell2", for: indexPath)
}
}
public override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
tableView.deselectRow(at: indexPath, animated: true)
if self.cellTypes[indexPath.row] == 1 {
self.cellTypes[indexPath.row] = 2
tableView.reloadRows(at: [indexPath], with: .fade)
} else {
self.cellTypes[indexPath.row] = 1
tableView.reloadRows(at: [indexPath], with: .right)
}
}
}
And here is how it is working in the iOS simulator:
I believe you are on the right track about creating 2 separate views inside the cell; one for showing 3 buttons (Play Now, Play Next etc.) and, one for showing the song's details (song name, singer name etc.).
In order not to mess with frames or constraints (in case you are using Autolayout), the main trick here is to create a snapshot of the view containing the buttons and move it to the end of the cell.
As I said above, you should have 2 separate views. I'll call them:
infoView: View that has 2 labels showing the song's and the singer's name.
actionsView: View that has 3 buttons for play actions. (Now, Next, Last etc.)
Here are things that you should do when user taps on a cell:
Check if cell is not selected. If it is not, then hide infoView and show actionView.
If cell is selected:
Deselect the cell.
Create a snapshot out of actionsView, set its frame accordingly so it'll shadow the real actionsView.
Set actionView's isHidden property to true.
Set infoView's isHidden property to false.
Set frame.origin.x value of the snapshot to contentView's maxX in an animation block so it'll move to the right side of the cell smoothly.
At the end of the animation, remove the snapshot from view hierarchy.
I've created a cell class and defined a method that executes those steps:
public class SongCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet fileprivate weak var infoView: UIView!
#IBOutlet fileprivate weak var actionsView: UIView!
...
public func showActions(_ show: Bool) {
switch show {
case true:
infoView.isHidden = true
actionsView.isHidden = false
case false:
if let snapshot = actionsView.snapshotView(afterScreenUpdates: true) {
snapshot.frame = actionsView.frame
contentView.addSubview(snapshot)
actionsView.isHidden = true
infoView.isHidden = false
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.25, animations: {
snapshot.frame.origin.x = self.contentView.frame.maxX
}, completion: { _ in
snapshot.removeFromSuperview()
})
}
else {
infoView.isHidden = false
actionsView.isHidden = true
}
}
}
}
Here is how it looks on my simulator:
