UITableViewCell Selected Background Color on Multiple Selection

Question

// Doesn\'t work
cell.selectionStyle = .Blue
//Works when the selection is not multiple, if it\'s multiple with each selection the previous one disappear...
let cell         


        

Answer 1

This worked for me:

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
    var selectedCell:UITableViewCell = tableView.cellForRowAtIndexPath(indexPath)!
    selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
}

// if tableView is set in attribute inspector with selection to multiple Selection it should work.

// Just set it back in deselect 

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didDeselectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
    var cellToDeSelect:UITableViewCell = tableView.cellForRowAtIndexPath(indexPath)!
    cellToDeSelect.contentView.backgroundColor = colorForCellUnselected
}


//colorForCellUnselected is just a var in my class
