How to place UIButton into the uitableview cell? - iphone

I am able to create a tableview with textlabel and with detaillabeltext.
In addition to that, is it possible to add UIButton into the cell.
I mean after the detaillabeltext, can i place a UIButton ( like "Remove" button )
Currently i have the following code
// Customize the appearance of table view cells.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
profileName = [appDelegate.sentItemsList objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
}
NSString *subjectData = [profileName.sent_subject stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet: [NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
cell.textLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"%# ", subjectData];
cell.textLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:13];
NSString *CompanyName = [profileName.sent_content stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet: [NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat: #"%# ",CompanyName];
cell.detailTextLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:10];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDetailDisclosureButton;
cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:230.0/255.0 green:249.0/255.0 blue:230.0/255.0 alpha:2.0];
return cell;
}
Thanks for you time and helps!

UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(aMethod:)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
[button setTitle:#"Show View" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.frame = CGRectMake(80.0, 210.0, 160.0, 40.0);
[cell addSubview:button];

You can add button or any other control to the content view of cell.
UIButton *cellButton = [[UIButton alloc]init];
[cellButton addTarget:self action:#selector(uploadData:)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
[cellButton setTitle:#"Upload Now" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
cellButton.frame = CGRectMake(100, 180, 150, 35);
[cell.contentview addSubview:cellButton];
[cellButton release];
Add any control to cell's content view

UITabel View Cell Button Mixed Up

In my table View Cell Each Cell Has two Button as, Edit And Cancel, On click Of Edit at The Same time Cancel Button Should Change. My Problem Is When I Try To click Edit Button Another cell cancel button image was changed not on that cell which i clicked?
Here Is My Code----
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = #"MenuNameCell";
MenuNameCell *cell = (MenuNameCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"MenuNameCell" owner:self options:nil];
cell = [nib objectAtIndex:0];
_checkButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[_checkButton setFrame:CGRectMake(232, 13, 25, 28)];
[_checkButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"edit.png"]forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[_checkButton addTarget:self action:#selector(editQuantity:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
//_checkButton.tag = 0;
[cell.contentView addSubview:_checkButton];
// Creating Button For CANCEL Order
_cancelButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[_cancelButton setFrame:CGRectMake(265, 13, 25, 28)];
[_cancelButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"cancel.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[_cancelButton addTarget:self action:#selector(cancelOreder:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
// _cancelButton.tag = 1;
_textFieldQuantity = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(125,14,42,21)];
_textFieldQuantity.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
[cell addSubview:_cancelButton];
[cell addSubview:_textFieldQuantity];
} else {
cell._nameLabel = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:0];
cell._amountMenu = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:1];
}
[_checkButton setTag:indexPath.row];
[_cancelButton setTag:indexPath.row];
cell._nameLabel.text = [_hotel._orderedMenus objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell._amountMenu.text = [[_hotel._menuPrices objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stringValue];
_textFieldQuantity.text = [[_hotel._selectedQuantity objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stringValue];
return cell;
}
Thanks In Advance!!
For each cell button, give the tag of the current indexPath.row for ex:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = #"MenuNameCell";
MenuNameCell *cell = (MenuNameCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"MenuNameCell" owner:self options:nil];
cell = [nib objectAtIndex:0];
_checkButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[_checkButton setFrame:CGRectMake(232, 13, 25, 28)];
[_checkButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"edit.png"]forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[_checkButton addTarget:self action:#selector(editQuantity:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
_checkButton.tag = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"5%d",indexPath.row];
[cell.contentView addSubview:_checkButton];
// Creating Button For CANCEL Order
_cancelButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[_cancelButton setFrame:CGRectMake(265, 13, 25, 28)];
[_cancelButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"cancel.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[_cancelButton addTarget:self action:#selector(cancelOreder:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
_cancelButton.tag = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"6%d",indexPath.row];
_textFieldQuantity = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(125,14,42,21)];
_textFieldQuantity.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
[cell addSubview:_cancelButton];
[cell addSubview:_textFieldQuantity];
} else {
cell._nameLabel = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"5%d",indexPath.row]];
cell._amountMenu = (UILabel *)[cell.contentView viewWithTag:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"6%d",indexPath.row]];
}
cell._nameLabel.text = [_hotel._orderedMenus objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell._amountMenu.text = [[_hotel._menuPrices objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stringValue];
_textFieldQuantity.text = [[_hotel._selectedQuantity objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stringValue];
return cell;
}

UIProgressView hides when scroll the tableview

In my iphone app i am having a button, when I click on the button, download operation starts and i am replacing the button with UIProgressView. This UIProgressView will show the download progress. But once a UIProgressView is added, when I scroll it is disappeared. Here is my code:
// Customize the appearance of table view cells.

[cell.contentView addSubview:myprogressView];
cell.cellItemButton.hidden = YES;
}
[cell.cellitemImage setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url] placeholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"item01.png"]];
cell.cellItemName.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",itemObj.itemName];
return cell;
}
- (void)download{
UIButton *btn = (UIButton *)clickedBtnSender;
UIMenuItemCell *cell = [(UIMenuItemCell *)[[clickedBtnSender superview] superview] retain];
myprogressView = [[[CustomProgressView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(25, 140, 100, 21)] retain];
myprogressView.tag = selectedTag;
btn.hidden = YES;
for (UIProgressView *currentProgress in cell.contentView.subviews) {
if ([currentProgress isKindOfClass:[UIProgressView class]]){
[currentProgress removeFromSuperview];
}
}
[cell.contentView addSubview:myprogressView];
}
Please help.
EDIT
- (UIMenuItemCell *) getCellContentView:(NSString *)cellIdentifier {
CGRect CellFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 150, 60);
CGRect imgFrame = CGRectMake(20, 48, 110, 123);

cell.frame = CellFrame;
//Initialize ImageView
itemImg = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:imgFrame];
itemImg.tag = 2;
[cell.contentView addSubview:itemImg];
//Initialize Button
itemBtn = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
itemBtn.frame = btnFrame;
itemBtn.tag = 3;
itemBtn.titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor blueColor];
itemBtn.titleLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:9.0];
[cell.contentView addSubview:itemBtn];
//Initialize ProgressView
itemProgView = [[CustomProgressView alloc]initWithFrame:progressFrame];
itemProgView.tag = 4;
//[cell.contentView addSubview:itemProgView];
return cell;
}
I think you need to have unique cellIdentifier for each cell
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
NSString *CellIdentifier = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Cell%d", indexPath.row];
UIMenuItemCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if(cell == nil) {
cell = [self getCellContentView:CellIdentifier];
// Some codes here
}
return cell;
}
Additional based on you last edit
Change
UIMenuItemCell *cell = [[UIMenuItemCell alloc] init];
to
UIMenuItemCell *cell = [[UIMenuItemCell alloc] initWithFrame:CellFrame reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];

Issue with setting Tag for button in sectioned UITableView

Due to issue with tag of button while I change image of one button several buttons are changing.
If any one can please find a solution it will be helpful.... tag is setting for buttons in sections which we can view.
If the Tableview is not sectioned its working well.
Your problem might be the fact that you're setting the variable only if the cell is newly created. Perhaps the sectioning has an impact on how many cells are affected. Try pulling your thumbs up / thumbs down code out of the if (cell == nil) block and see if that has an effect.

This is a common occurrence due to the fact that the table view cells are recycled. Your scheme with the button tags is rather convoluted and error prone.
It would make more sense to keep track of the ThumbsUp/Down state of each cell in your table view's datatsource data model. Then, in cellForRowAtIndexPath: set each button state explicitly.
BTW: cell.text and cell.textColor are deprecated. You should use the properties of cell.textLabel.

Help me to get the IndexPath.row value

I have created a check box using the uiimageview and i have placed the checkbox into the uitableview cell like below
i want to get indexpath.row when i check the check box.
so i added the uiimageviiew inside the cell. so the didSelectRowAtIndexPath is gets called and gives me the indexpath.row.
but when the row is selected i want to show the detailed view.
now this runs me into trouble.
so can you people suggest me how to tackle my above problem.
when i check the checkbox i want to get the indexpath.row.
and when the row is selected i need to show the detailed view.
Thanks for your time and help
UPDATE 1 :
// Customize the appearance of table view cells.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
profileName = [appDelegate.archivedItemsList objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:#"xc"] autorelease];
cb = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5,10, unselectedImage.size.width, unselectedImage.size.height)];
[cb setImage:unselectedImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cb setImage:selectedImage forState:UIControlStateSelected];
[cb addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
[cell.contentView addSubview:cb];
}
if ( tableView == myTableView )
{
titleLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(60, 0, 150, 35)];
titleLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:13];
titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:titleLabel];
NSString *subjectData = [profileName.archive_subject stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet: [NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
[titleLabel setText:[NSString stringWithFormat: #"%# ", subjectData]];
lblDescription = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(60, 30, 210, 30)];
lblDescription.numberOfLines = 2;
lblDescription.lineBreakMode = YES;
lblDescription.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
lblDescription.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:10];
lblDescription.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:lblDescription];
NSString *CompanyName = [profileName.archive_content stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet: [NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
[lblDescription setText:[NSString stringWithFormat: #"%# ", CompanyName]];
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
}
return cell;
}
Use a UIButton instead of UIImageView for your checkbox - this way you can add an action/method to it, where you can grab the indexPath, plus you can add different images for selected/unselected state which will eliminate all the confusing stuff happening in your code above:
So in your cellForRowAtIndexPath: method:
-(UITableViewCell*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
...// Your existing code here
UIImage *unselectedCheckboxImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"unselectedImageName" ofType:#"imageType"]];
UIImage *selectedCheckboxImage = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"selectedImageName" ofType:#"imageType"]];
UIButton *cb = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(desiredX, desiredY, unselectedCheckboxImage.frame.size.width, unselectedCheckboxImage.frame.size.height)];
[cb setImage:unselectedCheckboxImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[cb setImage:selectedCheckboxImage forState:UIControlStateSelected];
[cb addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];
[cell.contentView addSubview:cb];
[cb release];
}
And then for your button action method:
- (IBAction)buttonAction:(id)sender
{
if ([sender isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]])
{
UIButton *checkboxButton = (UIButton*)sender;
checkboxButton.selected = !checkboxButton.selected;
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.myTableView indexPathForCell:(UITableViewCell*)[[checkboxButton superview] superview]];
// Do whatever you like here
}
}
I think your logic is causing the problem in the didSelectRowAtIndexPath: method; make sure that's right. Besides, if you just want to use check mark for the cell I think it's better if you use UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark. This may give you a basic idea.
