UITableViewStyleGrouped with a right angle - iphone

Question

When I create table view with
myTableView = [[UITableView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 400) style:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
table view has rounded corners, but I wanna have right angle (so table view cell should look like rectangles, but table view still should have many sections).
The question is: how can I create table view with many sections and right angles?

Answer 1

In the TableView datasource. In the cellForRowAtIndexPath you can set the background of the cell to be blank...
cell.backgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero()];
Then you can put an image or rect or whatever in the back of the cell.
You could even create a new UIView and put that in place of the backgroundView.
Then you can put whatever you want in it, images, labels, etc... and they will go behind the content of the cell.
The rounded corners of the cell in grouped style is just an image so can be replaced by you.

Answer 2

set image as a background image to cell and give the backgroundcolor of UITableView to clearColor and set image like bellow..
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
///write your code..
UIImageView *img = [[[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 45)] autorelease]; // set frame as your cell frame
img.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"yourImageName"];
cell.backgroundView = img;
////write your code
}

Answer 3

For Sections you can code a delegate method like
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
// Return the number of sections.
return 1;//how many sections you want you can write a value after return type
}

Answer 4

Best way I found to make the corners right angled is to set the background view to nil and then put a view in it.
[cell setBackgroundView:nil];
cell.backgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
