In my app i am using tableview with cells having images coming from server. I want to give some space or gap or line between two cells. if i use
[tableView setSeparatorColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
I am able to separate the cells but not the image view. I also want to give space or gap or line between the cell.imageviews.
I want to give gap between the cell imageviews above
For this you can use below code:
yourTableView.separatorInset=UIEdgeInsetsZero;
and if you want a custom separator, then you can use below code:
UIView* separatorLineView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 2)];/// change size as you need.
separatorLineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];// you can also put image here
[cell.contentView addSubview:separatorLineView];
here is another way you can do very easily from story board also
.
My question will be, how do you add the image to your table cell...from what i can tell your images are not in the right place, it's like you're adding the image to the table row not in the cell that spouse to be on that row, your problem is not in the separator...because its starts after your image...hope you understood my point, but who knows...may be i'm wrong...some code will be usefull

I have attached an image of cells in a table view, and you can notice the 2 separator lines in the middle are a tiny bit thicker/darker than the 2 outer lines. I want the lines to all be consistent, and the color/thickness of the outer two lines. I could not find a solution, so I am wondering if anyone knows of any. I figure it would be a simple solution, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Thanks guys.
Select your UITableView from xib or storyboard, then make the UITableView separator to None.
See the image
Then place a UILabel with the width same as of UITableViewCell and height=1 in the bottom of your cell, clear the text of the label and set the backGround color as per your wish, this will solve your problem.
Hope this helps you.
Create a custom separator Line Programatically:
UIView *separatorLine = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:
CGRectMake(0, cell.contentView.frame.size.height - 1.0,
cell.contentView.frame.size.width, 1)];
separatorLine.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];;
[cell.contentView addSubview: separatorLine];
or you can add a image view for separator in custom UITableviewCell in UI
Hi I'm new to ios development. I am developing an application in which I am using UITableView.
Tableview contains some cells with separator line and others without separator line.
Can any one please tell me how can I remove separator line for specific cell?
cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, cell.bounds.size.width);
Above code works for iOS 7. How can I achieve this in iOS6?
Any help is appreciated
You can just add a UIView with the same background color as you want your separator line to be at the top of your UITableViewCell layout, make its height one pixel (it will be the same as a line) and its width the same as your cell width (cell.frame.size.width). After this in your cellForRowAtIndexPath just set hidden property of this to YES for the cell you don't want it to be shown and hidden = NO for those you want. It is a simple solution which will work in any iOS version. But if will add your custom separator don't forget to disable default separators for all tableview
In order to have only specific cells with separator you have to draw separator lines for those cells. In my view set the separator style to none and then draw you custom separator for the desired cells.
You can follow this link for custom separators
Basically what u need to do is add a custom view as follows:
UIView* separatorLineView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 1)];/// change size as you need.
separatorLineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];// you can also put image here
[cell.contentView addSubview:separatorLineView];
to set the separator style to none use:
tableView.separatorStyle=UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone
If you try to change the color of the separatorLine for this. But one thing is that if you want to make the adjacent cells as a single cell then this would not be the right approach. As this will make only the UI change.
The better approach would be to adjust the size of the cell and so that you get "single cellClick events for them".
you can use the delegate for this:-
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
is it possible to make a distance between cells like that in standard UITableView? There is no options to make separator bigger. Also this distance from right and left.
you can do this by set your cell background to whatever background you want (let's say gray in this case) and in the cell, add a white uiview with left, right, and bottom margin like this:
Then go to your table view, set the separator as none
and one last step, set the background of your table view to the same gray background as your cell.
Then you don't have to do anything particularly in your code besides simply initial your table cell based on the custom nib file (i assume you want to do this anyway).
If you prefer to construct your cell in codes, you can use the same logic.
in method:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
...
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
// This will create a line of 3 pixels that will be separating the cells
UIView *separator = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,320,3)];
separator.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview: separator];
// and if you want the border do left and right add:
UIView *separatorRx = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(318,0,2,cell.frame.size.height)];
separatorRx.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview: separatorRx];
UIView *separatorSx = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,2,cell.frame.size.height)];
separatorSx.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview: separatorSx];
return cell;
}
One way would be to set the backgroundView of the UITableViewCell to an UIImageView containing this white box on that gray background
You have to make a subclass of UITableViewCell. In your own subclass you may make everything you dream about! So, you need to add UIView with whiteColor background and margins as subview on your custom UITableViewCell.
There is not padding option in UITableView. You can either add a UIView in your UITableViewCell which will contains all the cell subviews, and change it's frame to create a padding right in the cell.
I suggest you to use UICollectionView instead, you can easily set the space between cells using a layout. If the cell is smaller than the actual collection View, then it's automatically centered.
I have a problem of the implementation of UITableViewCell's separator.
As you can see from the screenshot, there is a white gap visible before the separator, I think that is because I set the bg colour of the cell as light grey and also I put the inset of the separator as 53.
My first attempt was instead of using the separator, I was trying to draw the lines at the end of the cell by my self. But since on selection of the row the content of the row get updated, and there is a lot of issue regarding the calculation of the height of the cell.
So basically it is really hard for me to draw the line pixel precise at the end of the cell.
This left me the option to access the cell's separator's view, which currently not aware of any easy way, and fill the gap with my default background colour of the table.
My question is, how can I access the separator view
Or
Do I have any other alternatives to implement what I want?
Thank you very much.
UITableView doesn't provide APIs to access or modify the cells separator view directly. However, it has methods to change it's color, style, etc. Most of the times, though, the only solution for a custom separator is to draw it yourself, or better, to set the cell's backgroundView property to a simple view with a line subview or layer in it (a subview, although has some overhead, gives you the flexibility of autoresizing automatically using autoresizing masks or auto layout).
e.g.
UIView *backgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:cell.bounds];
UIView *lineView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, CGRectGetMaxY(backgroundView.bounds) - 1, CGRectGetWidth(backgroundView.bounds), 1.0f];
[lineView setAutoresizingMask:(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin)];
[backgroundView addSubview:lineView];
cell.backgroundView = backgroundView;
Use this workaround:
Put UIImageView at bottom edge of cell and you can set image as per your requirement
STEP 1: Set divider as per image
STEP 2: Set Separator style to none
Since iOS 7 you can use this
cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsetsZero;
I have a UITableViewCell in which I would like to draw some lines (say a 2pt line at 1/3rd from top of the TableCell covering the whole width). The lines would always be in the same place within the tableview cell.
One straightforward solution is to just have a -drawRect method that will use CGContextStrokePath to draw the line. But that seems to be like an overkill since it would call drawRect everytime which is inefficient.
I would think that there would be a way to be able to cache it somehow, so that all tableview cells are created with the lines by default. One way I can think of is to create 2pt*2pt png file and add it to a UIImageView on top of the tableview cell. Any other ways?
Try this -
Add this code in your cellForRowAtIndexPath, just adjust y position og this image view-
UIImageView *seperatedImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 49, 320, 1)];
seperatedImageView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:201.0/255.0 green:250.0/255.0 blue:152.0/255.0 alpha:1.0];
[cellBackView addSubview:seperatedImageView];
Another option is, to add a UIView and set its background color. For example:
UIView *lineView = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,cell.contentView.bounds.size.width, 2)] autorelease];
lineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:lineView];
You can just add a UIView like a subView of your UITableViewCell.
