Right button is clipped if UITableView has section index titles

[subhashdaga]

Right most button is clipped if you override the following UITableViewDataSource delegate -

• (NSArray *)sectionIndexTitlesForTableView:(UITableView *)tableView;

Any suggestions how it can be fixed? Thanks!

Hi subhashdaga,

I can't find a clean way to autodetect and automatically fix this issue but I have implemented a more generic feature that can be used to fix it. I have added a offset property to the swipeSettings class. Default value is 0, but if you set a value that is equal to the indexes view width it's done. I have tested it in the transitions demo project and it works ok with any transition.

Faced the same issue. Took me some time to find about the offset property.

The offset property can be used like this to solve the issue with the section index titles:

- (NSArray *)swipeTableCell:(MGSwipeTableCell *)cell swipeButtonsForDirection:(MGSwipeDirection)direction swipeSettings:(MGSwipeSettings *)swipeSettings expansionSettings:(MGSwipeExpansionSettings *)expansionSettings {
    if (direction == MGSwipeDirectionRightToLeft) {
        // adjust the offset to the content width to account for the section index
        CGFloat offset = cell.frame.size.width - cell.contentView.frame.size.width;
        swipeSettings.offset = offset;

       ....
   }

   ...
}

There's no API to get the width of the section title index in iOS. However, the contentView of UITableViewCell is adjusted automatically not to overlap with the section title index. So you get the difference between the cell width and cell content width, then set it as the offset.

Thanks. This works nicely.
