Keeping text in UITextView after scrolling it off the screen - ios

My table only has 2 sections. I have a UITextView as a subview in the 2nd section of my table. and a list of possible quotes in the first section.
I'm having a problem where once the user selects a particular quote which gets "pasted" into the UITextView like so:
replyTextView.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"#%# UserName writes... \n[\"%#\"]", replyPostCode,[separatedString objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
or types text into the textview, after they scroll away from the textview so it's off the screen it gets cleared. I guess this is because I keep releasing it from my table..
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
NSString *replyCellIdentifier = #"replyCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
if ([indexPath section] == 0) {
cell = [self CreateMultilinesCell:CellIdentifier];
}
else if ([indexPath section] == 1) {
//NSLog(#"TextField");
cell = [self CreateMultilinesCell:replyCellIdentifier];
if ([indexPath row] == 0) {
replyTextView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 150)];
//replyTextView.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
replyTextView.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
replyTextView.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeASCIICapable;
replyTextView.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyDefault;
replyTextView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
replyTextView.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;
replyTextView.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocapitalizationTypeNone;
replyTextView.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
replyTextView.tag = 0;
replyTextView.editable = YES;
replyTextView.delegate = self;
replyTextView.scrollEnabled = YES;
//[replyTextView becomeFirstResponder];
//replyTextView.clearButtonMode = UITextFieldViewModeNever;
//[replyTextView setEnabled: YES];
[cell.contentView addSubview:replyTextView];
[replyTextView release];
//cell.detailTextLabel.text = #"";
}
}
}
//NSLog(#"%d", [indexPath section]);
if ([indexPath section] == 0) {
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [separatedString objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
}
return cell;
}
I'm just wondering just what is the best way to keep the text in my UITextView when the user scrolls the uitextview off the screen and back again?
update
- (UITableViewCell*) CreateMultilinesCell :(NSString*)cellIdentifier
{
//NSLog(#"Entering CreateMultilinesCell");
UITableViewCell *cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle
reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier] autorelease];
cell.detailTextLabel.numberOfLines = 0;
cell.detailTextLabel.font = [self SubFont];
cell.detailTextLabel.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:10.0/255 green:10.0/255 blue:33.0/255 alpha:1.0];
[cell setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];//]colorWithRed:.98 green:.98 blue:.99 alpha:1.0]];
[self.tableView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];//colorWithRed:.94 green:.96 blue:.99 alpha:1.0]];
//NSLog(#"Exiting CreateMultilinesCell");
return cell;
}

The easiest solution is to use a different cell identifier for the two types of cells.
Edit: I see you are using two different types, but you are not taking that into account in the dequeue call.

Table view cell reload first cell content

This is how my table is populated :
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
CellNewsInfo *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"cell"];
if (!cell) {
cell=[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"cell"];
}
// Set up the cell
int storyIndex = [indexPath indexAtPosition: [indexPath length] - 1];
NSString *titleArticle=[[stories objectAtIndex: storyIndex] objectForKey: #"title"];
titleArticle = [titleArticle stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
if (indexPath.row==0) {
scr=[[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 200)];
scr.tag = 1;
scr.autoresizingMask=UIViewAutoresizingNone;
[cell addSubview:scr];
[self setupScrollView:scr];
UIPageControl *pgCtr = [[UIPageControl alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(120, 170, 80, 36)];
[pgCtr setTag:12];
pgCtr.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
pgCtr.numberOfPages=5;
pgCtr.tintColor=[UIColor redColor];
pgCtr.pageIndicatorTintColor=[UIColor blueColor];
self.pageControl.hidden=YES;
pgCtr.currentPageIndicatorTintColor = [UIColor redColor];
pgCtr.autoresizingMask=UIViewAutoresizingNone;
[cell addSubview:pgCtr];
}
else{
cell.title.text=titleArticle;
cell.title.numberOfLines=2;
why when i scroll it , the first cell is reloading ? i just want to have that scroll view only once at the beginig .
The reason your scrollview is being added again is that the cells are being reused once they are deallocated.
You should look into creating your own custom cells if you are going to display multiple cells types in one tableView, or even using two different cell identifiers depending on if the row is 0.
CellNewsInfo *cell;
if (indexPath.row == 0) {
cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"scrollCell" forIndexPath:indexPath];
if ([cell viewWithTag:1]) {
scr = [cell viewWithTag:1];
}
else {
scr=[[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 200)];
scr.tag = 1;
}
// continue customization here with scrollview
}
else {
cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:#"cell" forIndexPath:indexPath];
// continue customization here without scroll view
}
return cell;

Expandable UITableViewCell overlapping other cells

I'm working on a UITableView with expandable cells and I got it working with:
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
if(_selectedCellIndexPath != nil
&& [_selectedCellIndexPath compare:indexPath] == NSOrderedSame)
return 160;
return 40;
}
and
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
_selectedCellIndexPath = indexPath;
[tableView reloadRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationNone];
}
And the UITableViewCell set up in Storyboard as:
But when I change it to this:
to add the description and button, it scrambles up everything like this:
How come the description textview and more info button are showing even though the heightForRowAtIndexPath is 40 and they should be 'hidden'?
Or am I taking a wrong approach to this?
Also, the tapping and expanding is not applied to the searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView. How can I do this?
Edit: cellForRowAtIndexPath method:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"IngredientCell";
UITableViewCell *cell= [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
}
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.000 green:1 blue:1 alpha:0.333];
cell.tintColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
UILabel *title = (UILabel*) [cell viewWithTag:1];
UILabel *summary = (UILabel*) [cell viewWithTag:2];
UIButton *moreInfo = (UIButton*) [cell viewWithTag:3];
summary.hidden = YES;
moreInfo.hidden = YES;
[title setTextColor: [UIColor whiteColor]];
// Display recipe in the table cell
if (tableView == self.searchDisplayController.searchResultsTableView) {
[title setText: [searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
//set summary
} else {
[title setText: [ingredients objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
//set summary
}
// Change color if dissallowed
if ([[title text] rangeOfString:#"Egg"].location != NSNotFound) {
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.000 green:0.350 blue:0.485 alpha:0.333];
}
// Change color when selected
UIView *customColorView = [[UIView alloc] init];
customColorView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
cell.selectedBackgroundView = customColorView;
return cell;
}

UITableView can not show correct color of button in iOS

I used BVReorderTableView https://github.com/bvogelzang/BVReorderTableView to reorder row in tableview. But i have a problem: When I add UIButton to each row, this button always show clear color.Once selected row, this button just shown.
I tried this code:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell;
cell = [_tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
UIButton *prioritybtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
[prioritybtn setFrame:CGRectMake(220, 0, 70, 32)];
[prioritybtn setTag:4000];
[cell.contentView addSubview:prioritybtn];
}
UIButton *priorityButton = (UIButton*)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:4000];
if ([[items objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] isKindOfClass:[NSString class]] &&
[[items objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] isEqualToString:#"DUMMY"]) {
cell.textLabel.text = #"";
cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
prioritybtn.hidden= YES;
}
else {
cell.textLabel.text = [items objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[priorityButton setSelected:NO];
[priorityButton setTitle:#"Priority" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
priorityButton.enabled = YES;
}
return cell;
}
Also, I want to hide button only at first row, other row is still shown. How can i do that? Thanks
To hide the button at first row:
if (indexPath.row == 1){
prioritybtn.hidden = YES;
prioritybtn.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
} else {
prioritybtn.hidden = NO;
prioritybtn.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
}
Add this before return cell;
Regarding the color, add this where you initialize the button:
UIButton *prioritybtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
prioritybtn.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor]; //put the color you want
Try like this:-
cell.selectionStyle =
UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell;
UIButton *reletedbtn=nil;
UILabel *Nameoflb=nil;
cell = [tableeample dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
}
Nameoflb = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,200,40)];
Nameoflb.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
Nameoflb.textAlignment=NSTextAlignmentCenter;
Nameoflb.textColor=[UIColor blackColor];
[Nameoflb setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica-Bold" size :14]];
Nameoflb.text=[dataarray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
[[cell contentView] addSubview:Nameoflb];
if (indexPath.row!=0)
{
reletedbtn=[UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
reletedbtn.frame=CGRectMake(Nameoflb.frame.origin.x+Nameoflb.frame.size.width, Nameoflb.frame.origin.y+10,40, 25);
reletedbtn.tintColor=[UIColor redColor];
[reletedbtn setTitle:#"butoon" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
//[reletedbtn addTarget:self action:#selector(statusMasseage:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
//reletedbtn.tag=1;
[[cell contentView] addSubview:reletedbtn];
}
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
return cell;
}

User Interaction Enabled changing text color and click-ability of other sections

I have 3 sections in a table view and only using the middle section, section 2, to show various cells. Sections 1 and 3 only show one cell and I am making them unclickable since I want to display buttons and text on them. I made them and it was working fine until I made sections 1 and 3 userInteractionEnabled=NO.
Code: I know I can make this Object Oriented, and it was, but once this problem came up I tried to make it differently but it is still the same.
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if(cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
UIView *selectedBackgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
selectedBackgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.0 alpha:0.1];
cell.selectedBackgroundView = selectedBackgroundView;
if(cell==nil) { NSLog(#"Cell is nil");}
}
if(indexPath.section == 0)
{
cell.textLabel.text = nil;
cell.accessoryView = nil;
cell.detailTextLabel.text = nil;
dosageButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
amountButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[dosageButton addTarget:self action:#selector(showDosages:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[amountButton addTarget:self action:#selector(showAmount) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:dosageButton];
[self.view addSubview:amountButton];
cell.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
return cell;
}
else if (indexPath.section == 1)
{
if (self.nameMutable.count != 0 )
{
cell.textLabel.text = [self.nameMutable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"$%#",[self.priceMutable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
cell.accessoryView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"chevron"]];
return cell;
}
else
{
//Empty for now. Waiting for data fetching to finish
return cell;
}
}
else if (indexPath.section == 2)
{
cell.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
cell.accessoryView = nil;
cell.detailTextLabel.text = nil;
return cell;
}
else
{
NSLog(#"Something went wrong");
return cell;
}
}
For some reason my table view cell in section 1 where it is supposed to be clickable the color changes to a dark grey and is not clickable anymore. Its usually cell 3 and cell 10. Also, when I scroll down and Section 0 is no longer visible and then I scroll back up and Section 0 is visible, some of the cells become non-clickable and the color of the text changes.
Also, how can I make a certain cell, inside section 1, have bigger height because the text is too long to display and it starts to display "..." or covers the detailTextLabel. Thanks in advance.
You have to remember that these cells are being reused or 'recycled' so if you're setting userInteractionEnabled=NO for an if statement you need to set it to userInteractionEnabled=YES in your else statement, or set it as YES before all your statements. You also want to make sure that you're adding any other subviews (buttons etc.) that are unique to certain index paths to cells that are newly created, where you would stick that piece of code inside your if(cell==nil) statement. Something like this:
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if(cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
UIView *selectedBackgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
selectedBackgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.0 alpha:0.1];
cell.selectedBackgroundView = selectedBackgroundView;
if(indexPath.section == 0) {
dosageButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
amountButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[dosageButton addTarget:self action:#selector(showDosages:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[amountButton addTarget:self action:#selector(showAmount) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self.view addSubview:dosageButton];
[self.view addSubview:amountButton];
}
if(cell==nil) { NSLog(#"Cell is nil");}
}
cell.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
cell.accessoryView = nil;
cell.textLabel.text = nil;
cell.detailTextLabel.text = nil;
if(indexPath.section == 0)
{
cell.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
}
else if (indexPath.section == 1)
{
if (self.nameMutable.count != 0 )
{
cell.textLabel.text = [self.nameMutable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"$%#",[self.priceMutable objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
cell.accessoryView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"chevron"]];
}
else
{
//Empty for now. Waiting for data fetching to finish
}
}
else if (indexPath.section == 2)
{
cell.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
}
else
{
NSLog(#"Something went wrong");
}
return cell;
}
And if you want to change the height of certain index paths (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath Docs delegate method.

custom cell data not displayed ios

I need to display the cell data. Actually if I debug the code I can see that the cell.label.text does have correct value, but nothing is getting displayed on the simulator. I have set the row count in numberOfRowsInSection method.
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *identifier = #"Cell";
LogTableCell *cell = (LogTableCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:identifier];
CGRect frame1 = [ self.view frame];
frame1.origin.x=22.0f;
frame1.origin.y=55.0f;
frame1.size.width = 298.0f;
frame1.size.height= 425.0f;
[self.view.superview setFrame:frame1];
int btnWidth = ((self.view.frame.size.width-16)/3);
if(cell == nil)
{
cell = [[LogTableCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:identifier];
}
LogItem *lg = [[LogItem alloc]init];
lg = [arrLogs objectAtIndex:indexPath.row ];
NSLog(#"%d",indexPath.row);
cell.lblname.textColor=[UIColor whiteColor];
cell.lblsubtype.textColor=[UIColor whiteColor];
cell.lbltime.textColor=[UIColor whiteColor];
cell.lblname.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Merriweather" size:15.0];
cell.lblsubtype.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Merriweather-Light" size:13.0];
cell.lbltime.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Merriweather-Light" size:13.0];
UIImageView *imageview = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, cell.contentView.frame.size.height, 298.0,2)] ;
imageview.image = [UIImage imageNamed: #"lineseperator.png"];
[cell.contentView addSubview:imageview];
cell.lblname.text = lg.name;
NSLog(#"%#",lg.name);
[[cell imgtype] setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:lg.imagetype]];
if([lg.subtype length] == 0){
NSLog(#"%#",lg.subtype);
cell.lblsubtype.text = lg.time;
cell.lbltime.text = #"";
}
else{
NSLog(#"%#",lg.subtype);
cell.lblsubtype.text = lg.subtype;
cell.lbltime.text = lg.time;
}
return cell;
}
The imageview you're adding to the cell is covering all other content. You'll need to either resize/reposition it, or just use the already existing cell.imageView instead.
