Here is what I have at the moment.
How do I refer to this so that I can change the text colour to match my index list? The sectionForSectionIndexTitle worked well for adding in the correct section title but how exactly does one access the title element?
Or is it impossible and I need to redraw the view and add it with viewForHeaderInSection?
Basic Swift Code for iOS Apps For changing the background color of the table view cell, you should change the contentView. backgroundColor property of the cell. Now run the project to see the effect.
UITableView manages the basic appearance of the table, but your app provides the cells ( UITableViewCell objects) that display the actual content. The standard cell configurations display a simple combination of text and images, but you can define custom cells that display any content you want.
you can use the one of UITableViewDelegate
's method
swift3 and above
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) {
if let headerView = view as? UITableViewHeaderFooterView {
headerView.contentView.backgroundColor = .white
headerView.backgroundView?.backgroundColor = .black
headerView.textLabel?.textColor = .red
}
}
objective C
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayHeaderView:(UIView *)view forSection:(NSInteger)section
{
if([view isKindOfClass:[UITableViewHeaderFooterView class]]){
UITableViewHeaderFooterView * headerView = (UITableViewHeaderFooterView *) view;
headerView.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor RedColor];
}
}
for Reference I taken the model answer from here
One liner solution (using optional chaining):
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplayHeaderView view: UIView, forSection section: Int) {
(view as? UITableViewHeaderFooterView)?.textLabel?.textColor = UIColor.red
}
