Remove separator line for only one cell

Question

I\'m trying to remove the separator for one UITableViewCell. I did the following:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellFo         


        

Answer 1

cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0 , cell.bounds.size.width , 0.0, -cell.bounds.size.width)

Answer 2

On iOS 8 you need to use:

cell.layoutMargins = UIEdgeInsetsZero

If you want to be compatible with iOS 7 as well you should do following:

if ([cell respondsToSelector:@selector(setSeparatorInset:)]) {
    [cell setSeparatorInset:UIEdgeInsetsZero];
}

if ([cell respondsToSelector:@selector(setLayoutMargins:)]) {
    [cell setLayoutMargins:UIEdgeInsetsZero];
}

ADD: If previous didn't work - use this. (from answer below)

 cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, CGFLOAT_MAX, 0, 0);

If none of above worked, you can do:

self.tableView.separatorColor = [UIColor clearColor];

but this will leave 1 pixel empty space, not really removing a line, more making it transparent.

Answer 3

If you want to hide the separation line for only a specific type of cell, you can use the following code:

 override func layoutSubviews() {
    super.layoutSubviews()
    subviews.forEach { (view) in
        if view.dynamicType.description() == "_UITableViewCellSeparatorView" {
            view.hidden = true
        }
    }
}

Write this code in the cell (it must be a subclass of UITableViewCell) for which you do not want a separation line to appear.

Swift 5 Enjoy

//MARK:- In which row you want to hide 
cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: CGFloat.greatestFiniteMagnitude, bottom: 0, right: 0);

Answer 5

Another way that is a bit hacky is to create the custom table view cell with a uiView that acts like separator inset. Then, hide and show that when you want to.

I created SampleTableViewCell and a nib file with label and separatorLineView

@interface SampleTableViewCell : UITableViewCell
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *titleLabel;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIView *separatorLineView;
@end

Then, in ViewController Class

@interface ViewController () 
@property (nonatomic) NSArray *items;
@end

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    self.items = @[@"A", @"B", @"C"];
    [self.tableView registerNib:[UINib nibWithNibName:@"SampleTableViewCell" bundle:nil] forCellReuseIdentifier:@"SampleCell"];
}

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    SampleTableViewCell *cell = (SampleTableViewCell *)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"SampleCell" forIndexPath:indexPath];
    cell.titleLabel.text = self.items[indexPath.row];
    if (indexPath.row == 1) {
        cell.separatorLineView.hidden = YES;
    } else {
        cell.separatorLineView.hidden = NO;
    }
    return cell;
}

@end

I created a Extension to UITableViewCell, setting separatorInset value brings anchor bugs to me, I'm using Eureka form Pod.

extension UITableViewCell {
    func hideSeparator(hide: Bool) {
        let subviews = self.subviews
        for view in subviews {
            if view.classForCoder.description() == "_UITableViewCellSeparatorView" {
                view.isHidden = hide
            }
        }
    }
}
