How to Change Cell Color on Swipe Left in UITableView Using Swift

As iOS developers, we often find ourselves enhancing user interfaces to be more interactive and visually appealing. One common requirement is to change the background color of a table view cell when a user swipes left on it. This creates a dynamic experience, allowing users to easily identify which cell they are interacting with. In this guide, we'll explore how to achieve this functionality using UITableView and Swift.

Understanding the Problem

Suppose you have a UITableView with multiple cells, and you want the following behavior:

When a user swipes left on a cell, the background color of that specific cell should change.

If the user swipes left on another cell, the previously swiped cell's color should reset to its original color while the new cell's color changes.

Solution Overview: To accomplish this, we'll use the trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt delegate method of the UITableView. We'll also implement the methods to manage the beginning and end of editing actions to change the background colors accordingly.

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Implementing Swipe Actions

First, we need to configure the swipe actions for our table view. This is where we define the actions that will be shown when a cell is swiped left.

Below is a code example to set up the swipe actions without affecting the background color of the cell just yet:

Step 2: Handling Background Color Change

Next, we need to change the cell's background color when a user begins swiping. We'll do this by using two delegate methods: willBeginEditingRowAt and didEndEditingRowAt.

Changing the Background Color on Swipe Begin:
When a user starts swiping a cell, you modify the cell's background color here.

Resetting the Background Color After Swiping:
Once the user finishes the swipe action (whether they took action or cancelled), you'll want to revert the previous cell's color back to its original state.

By implementing these two methods, you can ensure that the currently swiped cell changes to the desired color, while allowing users to swipe other cells without any leftover actions affecting them.

Conclusion

In this guide, we've covered how to change the cell color on a swipe left action in a UITableView using Swift. By setting up swipe actions and handling the cell's background color on swipe events, you can create an engaging app experience for users. With a little bit of code, your application will not only look polished but also improve usability!
