Why is detailTextLabel not visible?

Question

detailTextLabel is not visible (code below). Can you tell me why?

 // Customize the appearance of table view cells.
 - (UITableViewCell *)ta         


        

Answer 1

I just want to mention that the wording in the UITableViewCell class reference can be a little bit confusing on this issue:

(After describing each cell type)

"Discussion In all these cell styles, the larger of the text labels is accessed via the textLabel property and the smaller via the detailTextLabel property."

It might seem that it's saying all of the cell types include a detailTextLabel, but if you carefully read through them it's only the default type that does not have a detailTextLabel.
