remove UITableCell highlight

how 开发者_如何学编程do I remove the highlight color after a UITableCell has been selected? I am presenting a modal view over my uitableview and once that is closed the selection highlight is still there. I remember there is a simple setting somewhere but I cannot remember it.

The simplest way to deselect a cell is the -deselectRowAtIndexPath:animated: method.
To use it put this code in your Table View Delegate Method (tableView:didSelectRowAtIndexPath:):

[tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];

You can change YES BOOL to NO if you don't want to deselect your cell with an animation.

The easiest solution would be to use the deselectRowAtIndexPath:animated: method on the UITableView.

See the UITableView class reference ("Managing Selections" section) for the the full method signature, etc.

Deselect cell using -deselectRowAtIndexPath:animated: method in selection handler

Also, if you don't know/care which cell is highlighted, and just want to deselect everything, you can use

[tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:nil animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionNone];
