Custom Cell With Multiple Fields

[tony98789]

Hi i am trying to use a custom cell with two fields, there was a similar post on here but i could not understand it. I have a class called location that contains two property gpsx and gpsy, originally these where two separate property in the form but i believe for the custom cell they should be one class that i then use in the form.

The issue i am having is i have created a custom cell with two labels and two text fields that would show the gpsx and the gpsy title and value, however i do not know how to map the values. Any guidance would be brilliant as i have been trying to figure this out for sometime now. Currently in my app the gps x and y are in two separate cells but it would be much cleaner if they where together. Thank you for any help or even an example.

You have to subclass an UITableViewCell and add the IBOutlets. Also the XLFormField *field:

#import "FXForms.h"

@interface SubroutineRow : UITableViewCell<FXFormFieldCell, UITextFieldDelegate>

@property (strong, nonatomic) FXFormField *field;
@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *nameTextField;
@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *timeTextField;

@end

If you have two UITextFields, set the delegates and assign them tags to differentiate them. In this code I assigned NAME_TAG and TIME_TAG.

In your implementation file, set the "field" as a dictionary with the two values:

-(BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string{
    NSString *tempString;
    tempString = [textField.text stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:range withString:string];
    switch (textField.tag) {
        case NAME_TAG:
            [dictionary setObject:tempString forKey:@"name"];
            break;
        default:
            [dictionary setObject:tempString forKey:@"time"];
            break;
    }
    self.field.value = dictionary;
    return YES;
}
