How to disable delete by swipe on destructive UITableViewRowAction? - ios

How to disable swipe left triggering deleteAction? I need it to be invoked only by tapping delete button.
I have this code for providing actions.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let deleteAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete", handler: { _, indexPath in
tableView.beginUpdates()
tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .left)
tableView.endUpdates()
})
return [deleteAction]
}
Tried this fix but it didn't work.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell.EditingStyle {
if tableView.isEditing {
return .delete
}
return .none
}

Found the solution. I used trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt method instead of editActionsForRowAt and there is a property performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe on a UISwipeActionsConfiguration which can be disabled.

Disable delete option for specific UITableViewCell in a UITableView

for UITableViews I have added three difference cells
How to Enable delete option for specific cell
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCell.EditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
switch dataSource[indexpath.section].menu {
case "Attachment":
if editingStyle == AttachmentTableViewCell.EditingStyle.delete {
attachmentList.remove(at: indexPath.row)
tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: UITableView.RowAnimation.automatic)
}
break
default:
break
}
}
In this case it's shows Delete option for other cell too.
How to stop showing the Delete option on swipe to other UITableViewCell.
Implement tableView(_:editingStyleForRowAt:) and return none for the index paths which should not show the delete option.
This worked for me.
Overriding this func from UITableViewController
or implementing it UITableViewDelegate
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?
The indexpaths were you want an action return a UISwipeActionsConfiguration else return nil.
like this
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
// return nil on specific rows
guard indexPath.row != 1 else {
return nil
}
let contexualAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title: "Action") { _, _, _ in
// Do Action
}
let swipeAction = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [contexualAction])
return swipeAction
}

trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt not work in stability

I am trying to make swipe-able table view cell for iOS 11 and above and trying to use the trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt but it works on iPad and doesn't work on iPhone. It is not called in iPhone.
Surprisingly if I try to swipe the cell more then 10 or 20 times it sometimes works for once.
Here is my controller's table view extension
import UIKit
extension CustomViewController: UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
func initTableView() {
tableView.register(cell: SingleLineListItemViewCell.self)
tableView.delegate = self
tableView.dataSource = self
tableView.estimatedRowHeight = 64
tableView.rowHeight = UITableView.automaticDimension
tableView.backgroundColor = .green
tableView.isEditing = false
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 3
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let model = SingleLineListItemViewModel(title: "coko")
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: SingleLineListItemViewCell.reuseIdentifier) as? SingleLineListItemViewCell
cell?.model = model
cell?.isFirst = indexPath.row == 0
cell?.isLast = indexPath.row == 2
return cell!
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
return nil
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 0
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return 100
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, estimatedHeightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return 64.0
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
tableView.deselectRow(at: indexPath, animated: true)
print("didSelectRowAt....")
router?.routeToTransfer()
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
#available(iOS 11.0, *)
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
return nil
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCell.EditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
// Action here
// In case of delete, you can simply do:
if editingStyle == .delete {
//Remove item at relative position from datasource array
//Reload tableview at the respective indexpath
}
}
#available(iOS 11.0, *)
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
let deleteAction = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { _, _, _ in
//YOUR_CODE_HERE
}
deleteAction.backgroundColor = .red
let configuration = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [deleteAction])
configuration.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = false
return configuration
}
}
Any help would be much appreciated.
The only obvious thing wrong with this is that you're not calling the completion handler. According to the API documentation it is necessary to call the completion handler to indicate whether the operation was successful. What it actually does I have no idea...
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
let deleteAction = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { _, _, completionHandler in
//YOUR_CODE_HERE
completionHandler(true)
}
deleteAction.backgroundColor = .red
let configuration = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [deleteAction])
configuration.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = false
return configuration
}
If this doesn't make any difference, do you have any other gesture recognisers that could be conflicting with the swipe action?
you can try this one
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> String? {
return "Delete"
}
// this method handles row deletion
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCell.EditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if editingStyle == .delete {
// remove the item from the data model
// delete the table view row
tableView.deleteRows(at: [indexPath], with: .fade)
} else if editingStyle == .insert {
// Not used in our example, but if you were adding a new row, this is where you would do it.
}
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
let action = UIContextualAction(
style: .normal,
title: "Delete",
handler: { (action, view, completion) in
//do what you want here
completion(true)
})
action.backgroundColor = .red
let configuration = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [action])
configuration.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = false
return configuration
}
Here is are actions defined as well (point 1 and 2);
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
let deleteAction = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "") { _, _, completionHandler in
// 1. remove object from your array
scannedItems.remove(at: indexPath.row)
// 2. reload the table, otherwise you get an index out of bounds crash
self.tableView.reloadData()
completionHandler(true)
}
deleteAction.backgroundColor = .systemOrange
deleteAction.image = UIImage(named: "trash")
let configuration = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [deleteAction])
configuration.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = true
return configuration
}

Change the text of the cell delete button

i'm trying to change the delete button of a cell.
I have 2 functions :
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let titleBtn = UITableViewRowAction(style: UITableViewRowActionStyle.default, title: "Supprimer") { (action , indexPath ) -> Void in
self.isEditing = false
//ackAction.backgroundColor = UIColor.orange
}
return [titleBtn]
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
But, when I run my app, the text of the button is changed but the delete doesn't work (i can't delete data from my array and the row of my tableview). Before to add this functions all worked perfectly.
A detail: in the canEditRowAt function, I tried to return false too...
Thanks by advance
if you want to change the text of the delete button, conform this method in the UITableViewDelegate:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> String?
{
return "Your new title"
}
To delete the item from the array conform this method
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath)
{
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyle.delete)
{
yourDataSourceArray.remove(at: indexPath.row)
yourTableView.reloadData()
}
}
You can either use default delete action and change its title like this.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> String?
{
return "MyAction"
}
or you can create your own action buttons like this.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let deleteAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: .default, title: "Delete") {action in
//handle delete
}
let editAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "Edit") {action in
//handle edit
}
return [deleteAction, editAction]
}

Allow UITableView to reorder, but not delete in edit mode, and enable swipe to delete anyway

I have a UITableView (iOS 9)
I have implemented two actions with swipe (one is delete)
I have an Edit button to enable edit mode (to reorder the rows)
For that, I implemented
override func setEditing(editing: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setEditing(editing, animated:animated)
if (!isInSwipeDeleteMode) {
if (self.tableView.editing) {
metAJourPersonnes()
tableView.reloadData()
}
else {
tableView.reloadData()
}
}
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, canMoveRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Bool {
if (indexPath.row < personnes.count) {
return true
} else {
return false
}
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, moveRowAtIndexPath sourceIndexPath: NSIndexPath, toIndexPath destinationIndexPath: NSIndexPath) {
let pers = personnes[sourceIndexPath.row]
personnes.removeAtIndex(sourceIndexPath.row)
if (destinationIndexPath.row < personnes.count)
{
personnes.insert(pers, atIndex: destinationIndexPath.row)
} else {
personnes.append(pers)
}
tableView.reloadData()
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCellEditingStyle {
if (indexPath.row < personnes.count) {
return .Delete
} else {
return .None
}
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let deleteClosure = { (action: UITableViewRowAction!, indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> Void in
print("Delete closure called")
self.tableView(tableView, commitEditingStyle: .Delete, forRowAtIndexPath: indexPath)
}
let modifyClosure = { (action: UITableViewRowAction!, indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> Void in
print("More closure called")
self.performSegueWithIdentifier("modifPersonne", sender: indexPath)
}
let deleteAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: .Default, title: "Supprimer", handler: deleteClosure)
let modifyAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: .Normal, title: "Modifier", handler: modifyClosure)
return [deleteAction, modifyAction]
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, commitEditingStyle editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
switch editingStyle {
case .Delete:
// Delete in the coreData base
personnes.removeAtIndex(indexPath.row)
tableView.deleteRowsAtIndexPaths([indexPath], withRowAnimation: .Fade)
default: break
}
}
Everything is working fine, but I want the edit mode just working for reordering. I don't want the red minus sign to appear, but I want to keep the swipe actions.
Is this possible? It seems that disabling delete in edit mode does disable the swipe to delete gesture.
I believe the only thing you need to change in your code is the editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath function. You only return .Delete if the table view is not in editing mode.
This way swipe-to-delete still works (not in editing mode), and when you do switch to editing mode, the row can't be deleted.

Swiping right on a UITableViewCell

So i've searched the site for an answer to this question and there are some decent results but nothing recent since Xcode 7 is no longer in beta and swift 2.0 is now the standard.
I've used the following code in order to make it so that a 'swipe left' feature will cause something to happen to a UITableViewCell -
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, commitEditingStyle editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath){
if editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyle.Delete {
// ...
}
}
I understand that this is something that Apple now supplied in their API and use of external classes is not needed.
I also understand you can customize the actions that come up from this swipe using this native code:
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> [AnyObject]? {
let more = UITableViewRowAction(style: .Normal, title: "More") { action, index in
print("more button tapped")
}
Is there any modern native code which would define a 'right swipe' on a UITableViewCell?
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,
leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?
{
let closeAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title: "Close", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in
print("OK, marked as Closed")
success(true)
})
closeAction.image = UIImage(named: "tick")
closeAction.backgroundColor = .purple
return UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [closeAction])
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,
trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?
{
let modifyAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title: "Update", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in
print("Update action ...")
success(true)
})
modifyAction.image = UIImage(named: "hammer")
modifyAction.backgroundColor = .blue
return UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [modifyAction])
}
The feature is available on iOS 11.0+ and Mac Catalyst 13.0+. For options on the left use the leading and on the right use the trailing methods.
Just implement the UITableViewDelegate methods and return your UISwipeActionsConfiguration object. You could optionally include an image or just the text as the title of the button.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,
leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,
trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?
Make sure to enable editing in your data source delegate otherwise the swipe options are disabled.
// True for enabling the editing mode
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
No, there Is no such native API as of now.
