SWIFT UITableViewCell with corner radius and shado

Question

I've been trying to create a custom tableview cell with rounded corners and drop shadow, I managed to create the rounded corners but the shadow is showing only on the corners and no where else.

Answer 1

write below code in cellForRowAt indexPath

 cell.contentView.layer.cornerRadius = 10
 cell.contentView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.blue.cgColor
 cell.contentView.layer.shadowRadius = 3
 cell.contentView.layer.shadowOpacity = 1.0                  
 cell.contentView.clipsToBounds = true

Answer 2

For both the shadow and the rounded corners, you can use this code:

 override func tableView(_ tableView: UICollectionView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

     let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath)
     cell.layer.cornerRadius = 10
     let shadowPath2 = UIBezierPath(rect: cell.bounds)
     cell.layer.masksToBounds = false
     cell.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
     cell.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: CGFloat(1.0), height: CGFloat(3.0))
     cell.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.5
     cell.layer.shadowPath = shadowPath2.cgPath
     return cell
 }

And you can adjust the values and you'll get the perfect shadow for you!

Hope it helps!

seems like UITableviewCell doesnt support drop shadows. Adding drop shadow to table view cell, please take a look at this.
