Question

I have custom cell in my tableview. when uitable view is in the editing mode. the rounded delete icon appears on the content of the cell.

How do I move the content to the right so to make place for the that little red rounded button.

In custom cell view layoutsubview should happen something. which subview of cell view should i resize?

thanks in advance

please take a look at my current code

- (void) layoutSubviews
 {
[super layoutSubviews];

CGFloat width = self.width - _productImage.right - 20.f;

if (self.accessoryView)
{
    width -= self.accessoryView.width;
}

_productName.width        = width;
_productDescription.width = width;
_productPrice.width       = width;

[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:3.0f];

for (UIView *subview in self.subviews) {


    if ([NSStringFromClass([subview class]) isEqualToString:@"UITableViewCellDeleteConfirmationControl"]) {
        CGRect newFrame = self.contentView.frame;
        self.contentView.frame = CGRectMake(40, self.contentView.frame.origin.y, newFrame.size.width, newFrame.size.height);
    }
    else if ([NSStringFromClass([subview class]) isEqualToString:@"UITableViewCellEditControl"]) {
        CGRect newFrame = self.contentView.frame;
        self.contentView.frame = CGRectMake(40, self.contentView.frame.origin.y, newFrame.size.width, newFrame.size.height);
    }
    else if ([NSStringFromClass([subview class]) isEqualToString:@"UITableViewCellReorderControl"]) {
        CGRect newFrame = self.contentView.frame;
        self.contentView.frame = CGRectMake(40, self.contentView.frame.origin.y, newFrame.size.width, newFrame.size.height);
    }
}
[UIView commitAnimations];

}

You can check the tableview.isEditing property.

If that is YES, then update the cell.contentView frame to x-difference otherwise use the default one.

Hope this is what you required.

Enjoy Coding 🙂
