UITableView Input Field Being Covered - ios

I have a strange issue. When I load my tableview that contains two textfields (one for email and one for password), I am only able to see the bottom of the cursor. It is as if there is something covering the input field (please see the image below). This issue only started when I went from targeting iOS6 to iOS7.
Any ideas what might be going wrong here?
Here is my code:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
[cell setSelectionStyle:UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone];
CGRect frame;
frame.origin.x = 10;
frame.origin.y = 10;
frame.size.height = 30;
frame.size.width = 200;
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame: frame];
label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:16.0];
label.text = [arrayLogin objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[cell.contentView addSubview:label];
frame.origin.x = 10;
frame.size.height = 90;
frame.size.width = 280;
if (indexPath.row == 0) {//user name part
userNameTextField = [[UITextField alloc ] initWithFrame: frame];
userNameTextField.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyDefault;
userNameTextField.delegate = self;
userNameTextField.placeholder = #"Email";
[cell.contentView addSubview:userNameTextField];
}else
{
passwordTextField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
passwordTextField.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyDefault;
passwordTextField.secureTextEntry = YES;
passwordTextField.delegate = self;
passwordTextField.placeholder = #"Password";
[cell.contentView addSubview:passwordTextField];
}
return cell;
}

The default row height is 44 (not sure -anyway close to it.)
In your code you are using frame.size.height = 90; which you are adding as subView in your cell.
So it is exceeds your cell height.
To make custom cell height you should change the following delegate method:
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView*)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath*)indexPath
{
//NSLog(#"HeightForRow");
return 44+50;//ofcourse change it as you wish
}
also I think you want to change the frame.origin.y for the textField to 42
and text frame.size.height to 90 -42

Not possible to setup UITableViewCell height

Please, help me to setup UITableViewCell height.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = #"SimpleTableItem";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
UILabel *l0, *l1;
if (cell == nil) {
CGRect f = tableView.frame;
float sc0 = pow(dt.PHI_1, 3.f);
float sc1 = 1. - sc0;
CGRect z =CGRectMake(0, 0, 0, 0);//f.size.height
CGRect r =CGRectMake(0, 0, f.size.width, f.size.height / 26.f);
CGRect r0 =CGRectMake(0, 0, f.size.width * sc0, f.size.height / 26.f);
CGRect r1 =CGRectMake(f.size.width * sc0, 0, f.size.width * sc1, f.size.height / 26.f);
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:r]
l0 = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:r0];
l0.tag = 100;
[cell addSubview:l0];
l1 = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:r1];
l1.tag = 101;
[cell addSubview:l1];
[cell.textLabel setFrame:z];
[cell.imageView setFrame:z];
[cell setFrame:r];
[cell.backgroundView setFrame:r];
} else {
l0 = (UILabel *)[self.view viewWithTag:100];
l1 = (UILabel *)[self.view viewWithTag:101];
}
cell.backgroundColor = [[UIColor alloc]initWithWhite:.0f alpha:0.f];
cell.imageView.hidden = YES;
cell.textLabel.hidden = YES;
[l0 setText:#"B"];
l0.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
[l1 setText:#"TEXT"];
l1.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
return cell;
}
this code gives this:
method like this did not help me:
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
CGRect f = tableView.frame;
return f.size.height / 26.f;
}
SO, if I setup the height smaller. That is, f.size.height / 26.f I have a transparent bar.
UITableView definition:
table = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(x,y,w,h)];
table.dataSource = self;
[table setTag:1];
[self.view addSubview:table];
Please, provide me a way to setup cell height. If I set very big height of UITableViewCell it is not modified too - only the top part is shown.
Make custom class for cell and use this class instead of UITableViewCell.
And set your cell's property in - (void)awakeFromNib {} in custom cell class. Try this. this may work for you I think. :)
Better use the custom UITableViewCell with auto layout to create the UI and add these lines in viewDidLoad
tableView.estimatedRowHeight = 44.0
tableView.rowHeight = UITableViewAutomaticDimension
Thanks to everyone. I found the solution.
Use storeboard to declare UITableView
Use the below code to define the height.
the code:
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
CGRect f = tableView.frame;
return f.size.height / 26.f;
}
I do not understand but it didn't work when I declared the table programmatically.

ios - view position inside cell tableview changes only after scrolling

I have a tablewiew using ios 8.0+, i added a checkbox to each cell - on iphone 5 works great, but when testing on iphone 6 - the checkbox is in the right position only after scrolling...
(the second picture is after scrolling)
****cant add photos yet:) so what i actually see at first load is that the checkbox get some rightpadding -> after I scroll some of the checkboxes moves to the right - where they should be
Code below
Thank you!
CGFloat y =self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height + self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.origin.y;
tableData = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5, y+10, self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height - y -30 - nextButton.frame.size.height -10) style:UITableViewStylePlain];
tableData.dataSource = self;
tableData.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:tableData];
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
else
{
CTCheckbox *check = [cell.subviews objectAtIndex:1];
[check removeFromSuperview];
}
CTCheckbox *checkbox;
cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
checkbox = [[CTCheckbox alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(cell.frame.size.width-60, cell.frame.size.height/2-10, 50, 20.0)];
checkbox.alpha = 0.7;
[checkbox addTarget:self action:#selector(checkboxDidChange:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
checkbox.tag = indexPath.row;
[checkbox setColor:[BlendedColors pink] forControlState:UIControlStateNormal];
//Expertise label
UIFont *myFont = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:12.0 ];
cell.textLabel.font = myFont;
cell.textLabel.text = [experties objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.textColor = [BlendedColors black];
[cell addSubview:checkbox];
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellStyleDefault;
if([[selectedCheckBox objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]isEqualToString:#"YES"])
{
checkbox.checked = YES;
}
else{
checkbox.checked = NO;
}
//cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
return cell;
}
Fixed - First cell width is always 320
added 3 lines
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
//Fix Bug - first cell view is always 320 - now its dynamic(cell width = device width)
CGRect cellFrame = cell.frame;
cellFrame.size.width = self.view.frame.size.width;
cell.frame = cellFrame;

TableView cell disappear on scroll

I found a lot of answer for this question but I don't anderstand how to manage my code.
When I scroll the tableView content, the cell disappear. I just have two texts in the cell question and answer.
I've tried to use an identifier (reusable) but the code doesn't change anything...
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UILabel *textLabel = nil;
NSString* text = #"";
//static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
NSString *CellIdentifier = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%ld_%ld",(long)indexPath.section,(long)indexPath.row];
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
int y = -20;
float titleFontSize = 14.0f;
if(indexPath.row == 0) {
y = 0;
titleFontSize = 16.0f;
}
if(cell == nil)
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"Cell"];
textLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
[textLabel setLineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
[textLabel setMinimumFontSize:14.0f];
[textLabel setNumberOfLines:0];
[textLabel setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0f]];
[textLabel setTag:1];
[textLabel setTextColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:57/255.0 green:55/255.0 blue:64/255.0 alpha:1.0]];
// Titre
if(indexPath.row == 0) {
text = question;
[cell setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:220/255.0 green:224/255.0 blue:241/255.0 alpha:1.0]];//[UIColor colorWithRed:.945f green:.921f blue:.78f alpha:1]];
[textLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica-Bold" size:titleFontSize]];
}
// Contenu
else {
text = answer;
}
CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(285, 20000.0f);
CGSize size = [text sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:titleFontSize] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
[textLabel setText:text];
[textLabel setFrame:CGRectMake(25, y, 275, MAX(size.height + 60, 44.0f))];
[textLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[cell addSubview:textLabel];
return cell;
}
UPDATE CALCULATING CELL SIZE
-(float)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
float titleFontSize = 14.0f;
float offSet = 0;
NSString *text = #"";
if(indexPath.row == 0) {
text = question;
titleFontSize = 16.f;
offSet = 10;
}
else
text = answer;
CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(285, 20000.0f);
CGSize size = [text sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:titleFontSize] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
CGFloat height = MAX(size.height + 40, 44.0f);
return height + offSet;
}
I've had this problem in the past and it's always due to the cells height being incorrect... You've got quite a few instances where your two cells are not the same, so we are going to have to get a grip on that code.
int y
this value is also concerning me a little as it looks like it sets the textLabel frame origin.y to -20 ... if you want a different offset for Y in each cell but the rest of the cell is the same, that's fine, but in this case I think I'd suggest a different UITableViewCell subclass for the two types of cell... And change all the label properties etc inside that subclass..
So...
Make a UITableViewCell subclass for each type of cell, call them whatever you like... for example MYQuestionTableViewCell and MYAnswerTableViewCell
inside the cell MYQuestionTableViewCell .h file
#define TEXT_LABEL_WIDTH 285.0f
#define TEXT_LABEL_QUESTION_FONT_SIZE 16.0f
inside that cell MYQuestionTableViewCell .m file do
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewCellStyle)style reuseIdentifier:(NSString *)reuseIdentifier
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style reuseIdentifier:reuseIdentifier];
if (self) {
self.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
self.clipsToBounds = YES; // just to make sure we're calculating the height correctly
// set up your textLabel etc. in here
self.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
self.textLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica-Bold" size: TEXT_LABEL_QUESTION_FONT_SIZE]];
}
return self;
}
-(void)layoutSubviews
{
[super layoutSubviews];
self.textLabel.frame = CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, TEXT_LABEL_WIDTH, self.contentView.frame.size.height);
}
Now our textLabel will be whatever the height of the cell is... Now it's set in only one place, we know where the issue will be if it's not correct.
In your second MYAnswerTableViewCell subclass you'll need the other values set
.h
#define TEXT_LABEL_ANSWER_FONT_SIZE 14.0f
.m
same as the other cell but changing for it's property values
As you are also using different fonts in the two different cells... it might be easier to use a switch.. but I'll try to keep it similar to what you were doing before.. this sort of doubling up of code is the cause of the confusion, but sometimes it's unavoidable.. We'll just try to keep it as simple as we can.
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
CGFloat offSet = 0.0;
NSString *text = #"";
UIFont *fontUsed = nil;
if(indexPath.row == 0) {
fontUsed = [textLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica-Bold" size: TEXT_LABEL_QUESTION_FONT_SIZE]];
text = question;
offSet = 10.0f;
}
else
{
fontUsed =[UIFont systemFontOfSize:TEXT_LABEL_ANSWER_FONT_SIZE];
text = answer;
}
NSLog (#"TEXT: %#",text); // checking if the text is set...
CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(TEXT_LABEL_WIDTH, HUGE_VALF); // personally I prefer HUGE_VALF for that
CGSize size = [text sizeWithFont:fontUsed constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
CGFloat height = MAX(size.height + 40.0f, 44.0f); // 40.0f for padding?
return height + offSet;
}
You shouldn't be adding labels to a cell unless you need to, they come with some provided... now your cellForRow can look like this
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *QuestionCellIdentifier = #"QuestionCell";
static NSString *AnswerCellIdentifier = #"AnswerCell";
if (indexPath.row == 0)
{
MYQuestionTableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:QuestionCellIdentifier];
if (!cell)
cell = [[MYQuestionTableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:QuestionCellIdentifier];
cell.textLabel.text = question;
return cell;
}
MYAnswerTableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: AnswerCellIdentifier];
if (!cell)
cell = [[MYAnswerTableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:AnswerCellIdentifier];
cell.textLabel.text = answer;
return cell;
}
You'll also need
#import "MYQuestionTableViewCell.h"
#import "MYAnswerTableViewCell.h"
at the top of your view controller

iOS - UITableViewCell text alignment

I've added a tableView and dragged a table view cell into it.
in the utilities panel, I changed the style to subtitle.
I've also tried changing it in code:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
cell.textLabel.text = [myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [myArray2 objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
return cell;
The center alignment doesn't work!
I've tried adding a label object to the cell to have a workaround. But I don't know how to access it. even though I assigned an outlet to it, this wouldn't work:
cell.labelForCell....
What should I do?
any suggestions on how I make it work the usual way, without adding a label to the cell or something?
For the UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle text alignment cannot be changed
You will have to put a label and add your alignment to it,
To do that you could use this code
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
UILabel *myLabel;
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
myLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:Your_Frame];
//Add a tag to it in order to find it later
myLabel.tag = 111;
//Align it
myLabel.textAlignment= UITextAlignmentCenter;
[cell.contentView addSubview:myLabel];
}
myLabel = (UILabel*)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:111];
//Add text to it
myLabel.text = [myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
return cell;
}
The problem with the subtitle style is that it does a [self.textLabel sizeToFit] when it lays out. When you center in a container that is the perfect size of the contents, nothing changes.
Try this. In a subclass of UITableViewCell, set your textAlignment, and use this as your layoutSubviews code:
- (void)layoutSubviews
{
[super layoutSubviews];
{
CGRect frame = self.textLabel.frame;
frame.size.width = CGRectGetWidth(self.frame);
frame.origin.x = 0.0;
self.textLabel.frame = frame;
}
{
CGRect frame = self.detailTextLabel.frame;
frame.size.width = CGRectGetWidth(self.frame);
frame.origin.x = 0.0;
self.detailTextLabel.frame = frame;
}
}
This makes the textLabel's frame full width, and thus allows the centering effect to be noticeable.
Note: since this overrides layoutSubviews, there is a performance cost as it will be called often.
I think the reason is that: the textLabel's width depends on the text length, if the text is too long to show all in a signal line, and you have already set the line break mode and set the number of lines to 0, you will find that the text alignment will be work.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *identifier = #"identifier";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:identifier];
if (nil == cell)
{
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:identifier] autorelease];
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
cell.detailTextLabel.textColor = [UIColor greenColor];
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
cell.textLabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeTailTruncation;
cell.textLabel.numberOfLines = 0;
}
cell.textLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"You can initialize a very long string for the textLabel, or you can set the font to be a large number to make sure that the text cann't be shown in a singal line totally:%d", indexPath.row];
return cell;
}
I think adjusting the frame will work. I had style of UITableViewCellStyleValue2 but If i have a bit lengthy text in textLabel, it getting truncated at tail and textAlignment does not work here, so thought of increase the width textLabel.
-(void)layoutSubviews{
[super layoutSubviews];
if ([self.reuseIdentifier isEqualToString:#"FooterCell"]) {
CGRect aTframe = self.textLabel.frame;
aTframe.size.width += 40;
self.textLabel.frame = aTframe;
CGRect adTframe = self.detailTextLabel.frame;
adTframe.origin.x += 70;
self.detailTextLabel.frame = adTframe;
}
}
It is impossible to change frame for textLabel and detailTextLabel in UITableViewCell
right in cellForRowAtIndexPath: method.
If you don't want to subclass your cell you can implement a small hack using
performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:
with zero delay for changing geometry right after default layoutSubviews:
[self performSelector:#selector(alignText:) withObject:cell afterDelay:0.0];
See details at here
Hi please add the following instead of your code,
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
change to
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
it will work fine.

UITextView in UITableViewCell, autocorrection can't be dismissed

I have a UITextView inside a UITableViewCell. It's working as expected except that I can't dismiss the autocorrection suggestions that pop up. This is what my -tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: method looks like:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *messageCellIdentifier = #"MessageCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:messageCellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault
reuseIdentifier:messageCellIdentifier];
}
// Set the background view of the cell to be transparent
UIView *backView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
backView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
cell.backgroundView = backView;
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
UIImage *ballonImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"ChatBubbleGray.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:24 topCapHeight:15];
NSString *text = #"Touch To Type";
// This imageView will be the background of the UITextView
UIImageView *balloon = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:ballonImage];
balloon.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 300, 140);
CGRect textViewFrame;
textViewFrame.origin.x = balloon.frame.origin.x + 10;
textViewFrame.origin.y = balloon.frame.origin.y + 5;
textViewFrame.size.width = balloon.frame.size.width - 12;
textViewFrame.size.height = balloon.frame.size.height - 15;
self.messageTextView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:textViewFrame];
self.messageTextView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
self.messageTextView.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyDefault;
self.messageTextView.editable = YES;
self.messageTextView.scrollEnabled = YES;
self.messageTextView.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes;
self.messageTextView.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocapitalizationTypeSentences;
self.messageTextView.delegate = self;
self.messageTextView.text = text;
self.messageTextView.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0];
[balloon addSubview:self.messageTextView];
[cell.contentView addSubview:balloon];
return cell;
}
#Peter Warbo: I'm suspecting following:
By default UIImageView's userInteraction property is set to NO. Set it to YES on your ballon image view object.
balloon.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
