StyledTableViewCell for iOS

Customize table view cell border and highlight colors.
Only supports UITableViewStylePlain

Features

• Custom highlight colors for table view cells
• Highlights supports gradient of multiple colors and directions

Usage

1. Subclass StyledTableViewCell

2. Set UITableView separator to none to hide the default separator

   [self.tableView setSeparatorStyle:UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone];

3. Use setDashWidth:dashGap:dashStroke: to configure custom cell separators

e.g. dashes for separators

[self setDashWidth:5 dashGap:3 dashStroke:1];

e.g. dotted-lines for separators

[self setDashWidth:1 dashGap:3 dashStroke:1];

4. Set UITableView separator color to set the custom separator color

   [self.tableView setSeparatorColor:[UIColor colorWithWhite:0.7 alpha:1]];

5. Use setStyledTableViewCellSelectionStyle: to set background colors of cell when selected, using preset colors

   [self setStyledTableViewCellSelectionStyle:StyledTableViewCellSelectionStylePurple];

6. Use setSelectedBackgroundGradientColors: to set background colors of cell when selected, using custom gradients

e.g. gradient of 2 colors

NSMutableArray *colors = [NSMutableArray array];
[colors addObject:(id)[[UIColor colorWithRed:255/255.0 green:234/255.0 blue:0 alpha:1] CGColor]];
[colors addObject:(id)[[UIColor colorWithRed:255/255.0 green:174/255.0 blue:0 alpha:1] CGColor]];
[self setSelectedBackgroundViewGradientColors:colors];

e.g. gradient of 3 colors

NSMutableArray *colors = [NSMutableArray array];
[colors addObject:(id)[[UIColor colorWithRed:255/255.0 green:174/255.0 blue:0 alpha:1] CGColor]];
[colors addObject:(id)[[UIColor colorWithRed:255/255.0 green:234/255.0 blue:0 alpha:1] CGColor]];
[colors addObject:(id)[[UIColor colorWithRed:255/255.0 green:174/255.0 blue:0 alpha:1] CGColor]];
[self setSelectedBackgroundViewGradientColors:colors];

7. Use setSelectionGradientDirection: to set direction of gradient when cell is selected

e.g. horizontal gradient

[self setSelectionGradientDirection:StyledTableViewCellSelectionGradientDirectionHorizontal];

e.g. diagonally from bottom left to top right

[self setSelectionGradientDirection:StyledTableViewCellSelectionGradientDirectionDiagonalBottomLeftToTopRight];

e.g. diagonally from top left to bottom right

[self setSelectionGradientDirection:StyledTableViewCellSelectionGradientDirectionDiagonalTopLeftToBottomRight];
