change color of uitableviewcell for selected cell in sectioned table

I have sectioned table view with check selection for each secti开发者_运维知识库on(every section allows only single selection like radio button).

now what i want to do is i want to change the color of cell that user has selected(not for fraction of time color change with animation using selectedBackgroundView property of cell).

Please help.

Thanks.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.0 green:0.0 blue:0.0 alpha:1.0];

Use this code........

 - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
 {
     UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
     cell.contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
 }

Happy Coding....

Use this in tableview didSelectRowAtIndexPath: delegate method

 cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleBlue;

if you want to change the selection style of a particular cell in the tableview then following code can help.. Put this in the - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath method and make the necessary changes

// x is the numbered location of that particular cell appearing in table view
if(indexPath.row==x) 
{
    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    // UITableViewCellSelectionStyleBlue or UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone
    cell.selectionStyle=UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray;  
}

when the user select a row

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

gets called. You may consider implement this method in your delegate.

If you want to change only the background when it is selected you have a view reserved for that in a cell:

UIView *selectionBackground = [[UIView alloc] init];

selectionBackground.backgroundColor = A_COLOR;

myCell.selectedBackgroundView = selectionBackground;

Where A_COLOR is a UIColor. You can set this in your cellForRowAtIndexPath.

A. If your cell's color is set to transparent (clearColor) you can simply set cell.selectedBackgroundView.backgroundColor.

For dynamic usage this can be done in -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: (you can change color each time user selects a row). Otherwise in -tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: - either when you setup the cell (after dequeuing or creating - to allow color changes, for example, each time you call reloadData) or when you create the table (if it wasn't dequeued - mostly for persistent color values).

B. If your cell's color is not set to transparent - set color in -tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath: as mentioned in most other comments. But using this method, don't forget to restore color of previously selected row.

try this:

[cell setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:55.0/255.0f green:255.0/255.0f blue:178.0/255.0f alpha:1]];
