UITableView disable swipe to delete, but still have delete in Edit mode?

Question

I want something similar as the Alarm app, where you can\'t swipe delete the row, but you can still delete the row in Edit mode.

When commented out tableView:commitE

Answer 1

You need to implement the CanEditRowAt function.

You can return .delete in the EditingStyleForRowAt function so you can still delete in editing mode.

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
    if tableView.isEditing {
        return true
    }
    return false
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell.EditingStyle {
    return .delete
}
