Custom cells?

[jpaas]

I tried using this with a custom storyboard table prototype cell. But as I change the parent from UITableViewCell to SWTableViewCell, the cell is rendered as a blank cell.

Does it work with custom cells or only basic?

For custom cells I recommend adding views to the cell's content view programmatically, the SWTableViewCell will still work as expected and you will have custom cell content

For example if I wanted to add a large red blob in all my cells I would add something in my - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath when I am setting up the cell

UIView *redblob = [[UIView alloc] init];
redblob.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 90, 90);
redblob.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
[cell.contentView addSubview:redblob];

This will make my cells look like this:

And the cell will still work as expected. So simply adding things programmatically to the content view will still work. This is because essentially the way SWTableViewCell works is it takes all the subviews in the content view and adds them to the UIScrollView that lives at the top of the subview stack for the UITableViewCell

Now that I think about it I should probably add this to the README...

but adding subviews programmatically is not convenient, and adding auto layout constraints programmatically without help of IB is hard.

i am adding view programatically but it got crashed when i am having more than 20 rows.
I agree to @supwy this does not look convenient.

This is happening also to me.

@napolux can i check your code
copy paste your code and also error what does it say?

This also gives me a blank cell when adding the view with IB. I was wondering if I did something wrong, but now it seems like it's not supported yet for this library?

Anybody find a solution im having the same problem

I'm also having a problem with this as well. I keep returning a black cell. If I use the default cell textlabels eg. textLabel and detailTextLabel I can get information to pup up, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the custom cell.
