Change color of accessoryType Swift

Question

I'd like to change the color of my cell accessoryType from blue to white. The textColor is already set to white. Does someone of you guys know how to do this?

My Code:

cell!.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryType.Checkmark

Answer 1

You can also change the cell's tint color from the storyboard (assuming you are using a xib file)

Answer 2

If you are targeting iOS 13+ you can use the SF symbols right chevron (it's what Apple uses)

let chevronImageView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(systemName: "chevron.right", withConfiguration: UIImage.SymbolConfiguration(weight: .medium))) 
chevronImageView.tintColor = // your color                                
cell.accessoryView = chevronImageView

"How to change color for .disclosureIndicator indicator type". After much research, I noticed that the image of disclosureIndicator is not an Image but a backgroundImage. I found a solution like this:

import UIKit

class CustomCell: UITableViewCell {


fileprivate func commonInit() {

}

open override func layoutSubviews() {
    super.layoutSubviews()

    if let indicatorButton = allSubviews.compactMap({ $0 as? UIButton }).last {
        let image = indicatorButton.backgroundImage(for: .normal)?.withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate)
        indicatorButton.setBackgroundImage(image, for: .normal)
        indicatorButton.tintColor = .red
     }
  }
}

extension UIView {
   var allSubviews: [UIView] {
      return subviews.flatMap { [$0] + $0.allSubviews }
   }
}

cell.backgroundColor = .grey

Answer 5

Im my case i need to change contentView color of my CustomCell.

Its can be easy making when u override methods :

override func setHighlighted(highlighted: Bool, animated: Bool) {}

and:

override func setSelected(selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {}

But when i add to my customCell :

cell?.accessoryType = .DisclosureIndicator

i had a problem when view under DisclosureIndicator is not change color. Its looks like:

So i look on subviews of CustomCell and find that DisclosureIndicator is a button. If change background color of this button u have this

So i try to change background color of superview of this button. And its work great.

Full code of myCustomCell setHighlighted func :

override func setHighlighted(highlighted: Bool, animated: Bool) {
    if(highlighted){
        viewContent.view.backgroundColor = Constants.Colors.selectedBackground
        for item in self.subviews {
            if ((item as? UIButton) != nil) {
                item.superview?.backgroundColor = Constants.Colors.selectedBackground
            }
        }

    } else {
        viewContent.view.backgroundColor = Constants.Colors.normalCellBackground
        for item in self.subviews {
            if ((item as? UIButton) != nil) {
                item.superview?.backgroundColor = Constants.Colors.normalCellBackground
            }
        }

    }
}
