I am trying to update a custom tableview cell’s progressview but the progress view

  • 0

I am trying to update a custom tableview cell’s progressview but the progress view wont update.

I can set the labels on the tableview cell but accessing things like progress bars or activity indicators doesnt work.

I do the following on the custom cell

cell.progressView.hidden = NO;
cell.progressView.progress = 0.5;
[cell.progressView setNeedsDisplay];

This doesnt work even though in the debugger I see the object is of the correct cell type and the progressView is allocated.

I have tried setNeedsDisplay on the cell itself as well, but no luck. What am I missing?

    Calling [self tableView:tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]; is most likely the problem because this likely results in another cell being dequeued from the table. So you end up setting up a new cell, not the one currently being display.

    Instead, do this:

    CustomTableViewCell *cell = (CustomTableViewCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];

    This directly asks the table for the cell. This should return the currently displayed cell if the row is visible.
