How to add multiple buttons to an additional view of a UITableView?

Question

I want to add two adjacent custom buttons to a UITableView accessory.

I tried doing cell.accessoryView = customButton;and then cell.accessoryView = customButton2. Obviously, this replaces the previous button.

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

You can add a UIView containing two buttons as a custom accessory.

UIView *buttonsView = [...];
// add buttons to buttonsView
cell.accessoryView = buttonsView;

Or you can subclass UITableViewCell and add two buttons there.

- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewCellStyle)style reuseIdentifier:(NSString *)reuseIdentifier {
    self = [super initWithStyle:style reuseIdentifier:reuseIdentifier];

    if (self) {
        UIButton *buttonA = ....
        UIButton *buttonB = ....
        [self.contentView addSubview:buttonA];
        [self.contentView addSubview:buttonB];
    }

    return self;
}

If you have not created a custom UITableViewCell before this article can help.
