Question

I have a custom uitableviewcell that i would like to indent when I turn on this:

[self.boatsDisplay setEditing:YES animated:YES];

Could anyone provide me a hint or some guidance?

Thanks

You’ll need to subclass UITableViewCell and override -layoutSubviews. When the cell’s editing bit is set to YES, -layoutSubviews will automatically be invoked. Any changes made within -layoutSubviews are automatically animated.

Consider this example

- (void)layoutSubviews
{
    [super layoutSubviews];
    CGFloat xPosition = 20.0f; // Default text position

    if (self.editing)
        xPosition = 40.0f;

    CGRect textLabelFrame = self.textLabel.frame;
    textLabelFrame.origin.x = xPosition;
    self.textLabel.frame = textLabelFrame;
}
