I've an iOS application developed using Objective-C & Xcode 6.4
Right know I'm working on manually rearranging the UITableViewController cells, everything working great. But after I press the bar button EDIT and the "3 underlines" appear to drag the cell anywhere I want in the UITableViewController, (( I can't save what I did )). So how could I do a Persistent save the changes done to the table cells location ?? I mean, How to save The new rearranged NSMutableArray to a Property list -NSUserDefaults-.
I'm using a Mutable Array to display the table's cells and these methods below:
-(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return UITableViewCellEditingStyleNone;
}
-(BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canMoveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return YES;
}
-(BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return YES;
}
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView moveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)fromIndexPath toIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)toIndexPath {
FileWML *fileWML = [self.filesWML objectAtIndex:sourceIndexPath.row];
[self.filesWML removeObjectAtIndex:sourceIndexPath.row];
[self.filesWML insertObject:fileWML atIndex:destinationIndexPath.row];
}
PLUS would someone tell me how I can make the edit button display the word Done, while editing ?
(( I can't save what I did )) means: after I do the rearranging order I want, and then I go to the home view then I get back to the table view I edit and rearrange, the rearranging order I did get back to the default order. So, all the rearranging I did is gone.
Thanks and every help is appreciated.
You have to load your datas from your file in an array. This array will be your tableView dataSource.
When a row is moved, in the delegate method you have to change the object's place in the array. Your array should always be the same as your tableview !
Once the editing of the tableview is done you save the array in the file. The previous content in file should be erased. Then you reload your datas ([tableView reloadData].

I have an app filled with over 500 songs for churches. I am adding a new feature, which will allow them to create a "slide show" of manually chosen songs. The way the layout is now is that they have a UITableView of all the songs, and tapping a song adds that PPT's file location to an NSArray, and adds a checkmark to the row. Following this, they can click the Preview button, which will give them a tableview of just the songs they have chosen, in the order they chose it.
I would like to allow editing mode to delete songs, or reorder them, but am not sure how to have that also reorder the NSArray, so that item 0 will be the first song they have on the tableview, not just the first one they tapped.
I assume you have an array of songs, called songsArray which is used to populate table view. Then when reordering happens, add this method.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView moveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)sourceIndexPath toIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)destinationIndexPath {
NSObject *songToMove = [self.songsArray objectAtIndex:sourceIndexPath.row];
[self.songsArray removeObjectAtIndex:sourceIndexPath.row];
[self.songsArray insertObject:stringToMove atIndex:destinationIndexPath.row];
}
Dont forget to implement canMoveForRowAtIndexPath
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canMoveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return YES;
}
This lets user to reorder all rows in your table view, if you don't want to let user to reorder specific rows, add check for indexPath.row and return NO for that row.
i don no whether this question asked or not but i still searching for an answer.Am working in tableview concept and i am creating a table view like with some set of menu's like inbox, sent,setting etc.Now what i want is i want to create sub menu's inside every menu, for example if i click inbox it should show new,replied,deleted etc like this for every main menu i want to create sub menu. Using array we can load by checking section but with out using array i want to create directly and notable one i have used custom cell i also want to show images as per the menu if it is inbox i have to show inbox image. Could any one help me??
-(NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 8;
}
-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return 8;
}
-(UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *cellidentifier=#"ViewProfileCell";
MyHomeViewCell *cell= [[MyHomeViewCell alloc] init];
cell=(MyHomeViewCell*)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellidentifier];
if(!cell)
{
NSArray *nibofMyHomeCell=[[NSBundle mainBundle]loadNibNamed:#"MyHomeViewCell" owner:self options:Nil];
cell=[nibofMyHomeCell objectAtIndex:0];
}
if(indexPath.section==0)
{
cell.MyHomeMenuLabel.text=#"Inbox";
}
}
Here ara a good tuts it could help you:
Expanding/Collapsing TableView Sections
Expandable UITableView
And this github awesome code here by Oliver Letterer.
You can create a UITableview which will contain cells on it as you said inbox, sent, setting etc.
After you need to create another UITableView which will contain your submenu buttons or labels like new,replied, deleted when click on inbox.
Simillarly you will do for rest of the cells in your main UITableView.
And don't get confuse on how will i identify which tableview will get called.
You will check for tableview name like below:
if(tableView==main)
{
///Code for main menu tableview.
}
else if(tableView==sub)
{
////Code for submenu tableview.
}
This you will do in all UITableView Delegate and Datasource methods:
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
There are many ways you can do this. You could for example show each item as a section header and if the section header is tapped you show (or hide) all of the rows in that section. The rows being the 'sub menu' items (new, replied, deleted). Or you could use different sections for each part and how or hide the sections. Or show and hide rows. This is pretty much all controlled by changing the section and row counts.
I have a table. When I swipe horizontally across a table cell a button appears asking if I want to delete the row.
I do not want that feature. However, I looked up the code up and down and I never see where does this feature is implemented.
Other rows on other tables do not behave the same way.
I think what you want to do is:
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
// Return NO if you do not want the specified item to be editable.
return NO;
}
in your table's viewController.
However, I looked up the code up and down and I never see where does this feature is implemented.
It's implemented by the table view. You can prevent cells from being edited at all by returning NO from your table data source's implementation of -tableView:canEditRowAtIndexPath:, and you can change what editing options are available for a given row by returning an appropriate value from -tableView:editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:.
- (UITableViewCellEditingStyle)tableView:(UITableView *)aTableView editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Detemine if it's in editing mode
if (self.editing) {
return UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete;
}
return UITableViewCellEditingStyleNone;
}
or
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return NO;
}
.
Hello,
I have the following code to set the re-ordering of the tableView.
#pragma mark Row reordering
// Determine whether a given row is eligible for reordering or not.
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canMoveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return YES;
}
// Process the row move. This means updating the data model to <span id="IL_AD6" class="IL_AD">correct</span> the item indices.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView moveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)fromIndexPath
toIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)toIndexPath {
NSString *item = [arr objectAtIndex:fromIndexPath.row];
[arr removeObject:item];
[arr insertObject:item atIndex:toIndexPath.row];
}
But when I reload the TableView (note not a TableViewController) The order is set back to what it was before I changed anything.
Now when I setup the editing for this view (the delete buttons) I had to add this line:
[self.mainTableView setEditing:YES animated:YES];
before it appeared in my view.
Is there a similar thing I need to set with the re-ordering of the table view for it to save?
The data is fetched from a Core Data database.
In order to persist the order of the objects I'm afraid you will need to add an attribute for that to your data model. Just use an int / [NSNumber] and recompute them in a loop when a table view row is moved.
When you reload the data, are you re-populating that array with the result of a fetch from your Core Data entity? If so, the changes you made to the array (which I assume is the data source for the TV) will be blown away. If you want those changes to stick, you would need to update the model somehow to make sure the re-population of the array results in the array being indexed the way you need.
I am making a grouped a table view with multiple sections (using NSArrays). Anyway, normally, if I have a regular table view with NO sections I am able to use the following code to realize which cell the user tapped. This no longer works since I use NSArrays to split up the table and don't place the cell names directly into the table view code ([tblSimpleTable addObject:#"cell 1"]; <-- I don't do that). What new code should I use?
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
if ([[tblSimpleTable objectAtIndex: indexPath.row] isEqual:#"iPhone"]) {
If you know the Row number and the section number
Try something like this
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
if(indexPath.section==yoursection)
{
if(indexPath.row==yourRow)
{
//do something
}
}
}
