Uitableview Disable Swipe to Delete, But Still Have Delete in Edit Mode

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

Ok, it turns out to be quite easy. This is what I did to solve this:

Objective-C

- (UITableViewCellEditingStyle)tableView:(UITableView *)aTableView editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    // Detemine if it's in editing mode
    if (self.tableView.editing)
    {
        return UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete;
    }

    return UITableViewCellEditingStyleNone;
}

Swift 2

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCellEditingStyle {
    if tableView.editing {
         return .Delete
    }

    return .None
}

Swift 3

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCellEditingStyle {
    if tableView.isEditing {
        return .delete
    }

    return .none
}

You still need to implement tableView:commitEditingStyle:forRowAtIndexPath: to commit the deletion.

Allow UITableView to reorder, but not delete in edit mode, and enable swipe to delete anyway

I believe the only thing you need to change in your code is the editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath function. You only return .Delete if the table view is not in editing mode.

This way swipe-to-delete still works (not in editing mode), and when you do switch to editing mode, the row can't be deleted.

Swift: How to delete with Edit button and deactivate swipe to delete?

Here's the working code:

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, commitEditingStyle editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
    if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyle.Delete) {
        arr.removeAtIndex(indexPath.row)
        tableView.deleteRowsAtIndexPaths([indexPath], withRowAnimation: UITableViewRowAnimation.Automatic)
    }
}

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCellEditingStyle {
    if (self.tableView.editing) {
        return UITableViewCellEditingStyle.Delete
    }
    return UITableViewCellEditingStyle.None
}

UITableView disable swipe to delete for particular cells swift

You might customize the UITableViewDelegate's function editingStyleForRowAt, especially returning UITableViewCellEditingStyle.none when you don't need the swipe, something like:

public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editingStyleForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCellEditingStyle
{
   if mainList[indexPath.row].statusId == "12" {
        return UITableViewCellEditingStyle.none
    } else {
        return UITableViewCellEditingStyle.delete
    }
}

Disable Swipe-to-Delete Gesture in UITableView

Here's what to do:

- (UITableViewCellEditingStyle)tableView:(UITableView *)aTableView editingStyleForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    // Detemine if it's in editing mode
    if (self.tableView.editing) {
        return UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete;
    }
    return UITableViewCellEditingStyleNone;
}

You still need tableView:commitEditingStyle:forRowAtIndexPath: to animate the deletion.

This is a much cleaner solution than iBrad Apps' solution, since you can use the default self.editButtonItem instead of a custom button.

How do I disable the full swipe on a tableview cell in iOS11

Implement like below :

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration? {
    let delete = UIContextualAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { (action, sourceView, completionHandler) in
        print("index path of delete: \(indexPath)")
        completionHandler(true)
    }
    let swipeAction = UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [delete])
    swipeAction.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = false // This is the line which disables full swipe
    return swipeAction
}

This is the line which disables full swipe

swipeAction.performsFirstActionWithFullSwipe = false 

And remove the other functions if you implement any like editingStyle and editActionsForRowAt.

UITableView edit mode appears on top of my views

I suspect that when creating your UITableViewCell subclass, you did not add your custom subviews to the cell's contentView.

From the documentation:

The content view of a UITableViewCell object is the default superview for content that the cell displays. If you want to customize cells by simply adding additional views, you should add them to the content view so they position appropriately as the cell transitions in to and out of editing mode.

Sounds like your problem exactly.
