UITableViewCell Set Selected Image

Question

trying to figure out how to set the selected image for for a tableViewCell.

The old way of writing this was cell.selectedImage but that has been deprecated since 3.0.

I've tried numerous things, but can't get it too work.

Thanks! Josh

Answer 1

According to the Deprecated UITableViewCell Methods doc, you should use the imageView's highlightedImage property as a replacement for selectedImage. For example:

UITableViewCell *cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:nil];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"deselected_image.png"];
cell.imageView.highlightedImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"selected_image.png"];

Answer 2

You can set selected backgroundView like below....

        UIImageView *selBGView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"urimage.png"]];
                cell.selectedBackgroundView = selBGView;
