Iphone – Change grouped UITableview border size

borderiphoneuitableview

I know how to add a border to the tableview using:

myTableview.layer.borderColor = [UIColor redColor].CGColor
myTableview.layer.borderWidth = 3.0f;

Setting the border like this results in a square border around the bounds of the tableview not the bounds of the grouped cells in the tableview. Using a similar idea on the cells makes a square border around the bounds of the cell but not the rounded edges.

There doesnt seem to be any way of changing the seperator width on the cells either. Is it possible to make a border around a grouped tableview?

I'm not sure what you're asking. There is a cornerRadius property on CALayer in iOS 3.0 and later.

Ios – How to disable the UITableView selection

All you have to do is set the selection style on the UITableViewCell instance using either:

Objective-C:

cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;

[cell setSelectionStyle:UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone];

Swift 2:

cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None

Swift 3 and 4.x:

cell.selectionStyle = .none

Further, make sure you either don't implement -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: in your table view delegate or explicitly exclude the cells you want to have no action if you do implement it.

Ios – Eliminate extra separators below UITableView

Interface builder (iOS 9+)

Just drag a UIView to the table. In storyboard, it will sit at the top below your custom cells. You may prefer to name it "footer".

Here it is shown in green for clarity, you'd probably want clear color.

Note that by adjusting the height, you can affect how the "bottom bounce" of the table is handled, as you prefer. (Height zero is usually fine).

To do it programmatically:

Swift

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    self.tableView.tableFooterView = UIView()
}

Objective-C

iOS 6.1+

- (void)viewDidLoad 
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    // This will remove extra separators from tableview
    self.tableView.tableFooterView = [UIView new];
}

or if you prefer,

    self.tableView.tableFooterView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];

Historically in iOS:

Add to the table view controller...

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section {
     // This will create a "invisible" footer
     return CGFLOAT_MIN;
 }

and if necessary...

- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section
{        
    return [UIView new];

    // If you are not using ARC:
    // return [[UIView new] autorelease];
}
