iOS: reload single cell of UICollectionView

Question

I am trying to follow the following post on reload a cell in a UICollectionView:

UICollectionView update a single cell

I know that I ultimately want somethin

Answer 1

- (void)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView didSelectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    NSDictionary *dic = @{@"option":[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES]};
    [self.array insertObject:dic atIndex:indexPath.row];

    [collectionView reloadItemsAtIndexPaths:@[indexPath]];
}

Answer 2

Toy have to pass an array containing the indexPaths that you want to be reloaded.

[self.collectionView reloadItemsAtIndexPaths: indexpathArray];

NSIndexPath has some property names section and row, both represents a cell. If your collection view has single section, you can create a NSIndexPath by setting its section = 0;

NSIndexPath *indexPath = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:rowIndex inSection:0];

Here rowIndex is your array index. Btw you have to make an array with you newly created indexpaths, then pass it to reloadItemsAtIndexPaths.

Hope this helps.. :)

Answer 3

Obj-C

NSMutableArray *indexPaths = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]    
[indexPaths addObject:indexPath];
[self.collectionView reloadItemsAtIndexPaths: indexPaths];

Swift 4.0

var indexPaths = [IndexPath]()
indexPaths.append(indexPath) 

if let collectionView = collectionView {
    collectionView.reloadItemsAtIndexPaths(indexPaths)
}

Answer 4

You can use this way for Swift 5:

CollectionView.reloadItems(at: IndexPath])

Answer 5

It depends on your implementation and how you have grouped your cells into sections but let's assume you have one section and each element in your array corresponds to a row in your table.

If you wanted to reload a cell corresponding to an array element at index x all you need to do is write

[_collectionView performBatchUpdates:^{
    [_collectionView reloadItemsAtIndexPaths:@[[NSIndexPath x inSection:0]]];
} completion:^(BOOL finished) {}];

Conversely, if you have the cell but want to find its index path you can always call [collectionView indexPathForCell:myCell]
