As my title saying I want to swipe first row of UITableView
left to right when user will come on that ViewController
.
In my ViewController
I have one UITableView
, each row have two button "More" and "Delete" action. Look at below code
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyle.delete) {
}
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
let deleteButton = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "Delete") { action, index in
// Edit Button Action
}
deleteButton.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
let editButton = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "Edit") { action, index in
// Delete Button Action
}
editButton.backgroundColor = UIColor.lightGray
return [deleteButton, editButton]
}
All is working good. But I want when end-user comes on this ViewController
at first time so they will notify that there is swipe action available so they will perform it.
Question is: How can I do swipe left and right automatically for first row ?
What I have did?
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
let cell = posTblView.cellForRow(at: NSIndexPath(row: 0, section: 0) as IndexPath) as! POSUserTabelCell
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.3, animations: {
cell.transform = CGAffineTransform.identity.translatedBy(x: -150, y: 0)
}) { (finished) in
UIView.animateKeyframes(withDuration: 0.3, delay: 0.25, options: [], animations: {
cell.transform = CGAffineTransform.identity
}, completion: { (finished) in
})
}
}
By above code swipe/moving cell is working but not display "Delete" and "More" button.
So please guide me on right direction.
I found one way to achieve it.
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
if arrStudent.count > 0 {
let indexPath = NSIndexPath(row: 0, section: 0)
let cell = tblStudent.cellForRow(at: indexPath as IndexPath);
let swipeView = UIView()
swipeView.frame = CGRect(x: cell!.bounds.size.width, y: 0, width: 170, height: cell!.bounds.size.height)
swipeView.backgroundColor = .clear
let swipeEditLabel: UILabel = UILabel.init(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 80, height: cell!.bounds.size.height))
swipeEditLabel.text = "Edit";
swipeEditLabel.textAlignment = .center
swipeEditLabel.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 19)
swipeEditLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 180/255, green: 180/255, blue: 180/255, alpha: 1) // Light Gray: Change color as you want
swipeEditLabel.textColor = UIColor.white
swipeView.addSubview(swipeEditLabel)
let swipeDeleteLabel: UILabel = UILabel.init(frame: CGRect(x: swipeEditLabel.frame.size.width, y: 0, width: 90, height: cell!.bounds.size.height))
swipeDeleteLabel.text = "Delete";
swipeDeleteLabel.textAlignment = .center
swipeDeleteLabel.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 19)
swipeDeleteLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 255/255, green: 41/255, blue: 53/255, alpha: 1) // Red color: Change color as you want
swipeDeleteLabel.textColor = UIColor.white
swipeView.addSubview(swipeDeleteLabel)
cell!.addSubview(swipeView)
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.60, animations: {
cell!.frame = CGRect(x: cell!.frame.origin.x - 170, y: cell!.frame.origin.y, width: cell!.bounds.size.width + 170, height: cell!.bounds.size.height)
}) { (finished) in
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.60, animations: {
cell!.frame = CGRect(x: cell!.frame.origin.x + 170, y: cell!.frame.origin.y, width: cell!.bounds.size.width - 170, height: cell!.bounds.size.height)
}, completion: { (finished) in
for subview in swipeView.subviews {
subview.removeFromSuperview()
}
swipeView.removeFromSuperview()
})
}
}
}
Add custom UIView
at end of cell and remove it after animation is done.
- You can set custom view's frame as you want
- Add label(s) with background color and title as you want.
Here you should write code for not every time call this code in viewDidAppear
it should be call once for only user indication.
Transforming a cell to the left will not make the action button visible.
You need to send that cell into editing mode by calling the setEditing
method on the cell, put this in your viewDidAppear
:
let cell = posTblView.cellForRow(at: IndexPath(row: 0, section: 0))
cell.setEditing(true, animated: true)
