UITableViewCell - check mark one row per section


I have 2 sections and 3 rows each as follow:

  1. SEARCH DISTANCE

    • 250 feet

    • 1000 feet

    • 4000 feet

  2. MAP TYPE

    • Standard

    • Satellite

    • Hybrid

I want to have one check mark for a row per section but my current code will uncheck all visible cells for the entire table view and leave one selected row with check mark. In other word, I will have one check mark for the entire table (2 sections). Here I posted my entire code. I have google'd many but there seems none to resolve my problem. Anyone, please help correct my code. Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • you have an error with this

    // uncheck all visible cells.

        for (UITableViewCell *cell in [aTableView visibleCells]) {
            if (cell.accessoryType != UITableViewCellAccessoryNone) {
                cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
            }
        }
    

    Here the for loop deselect all the cell. you have to check also the section in if loop

    you can set tag for your cell like this

     cell.tag = indexPath.section;
    

    and in for loop if condition is

        for (UITableViewCell *cell in [aTableView visibleCells]) {
            if (cell.accessoryType != UITableViewCellAccessoryNone && cell.tag == indexPath.section) {
                cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
            }
        }
