Sorry Craig, I didn't catch your second statement. The if/else modulus
statement in my code generally has separate styles for the alternating row (I
pass a CellStyle model that contains default and alternating styles). When I
reduced the code, it would have been more appropriate for me to remove that if
all together. Here is a more readable sample of my code.
public override UITableViewCell GetCell (UITableView tableView, NSIndexPath
indexPath)
{
// the row index
int row = indexPath.Row;
var dRow = Rows [row];
// get a reusable cell instance and set the style
var cell = tableView.DequeueReusableCell (TableCellIdentifier +
dRow.ViewName + dRow.Text);
if (cell == null) {
cell = InstantiateCell(dRow,
UITableViewCellStyle.Subtitle, TableCellIdentifier);
cell.SelectionStyle =
UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None;
var label = cell.TextLabel;
label.TextColor = UIColor.Black;
label.HighlightedTextColor = UIColor.Yellow;
}
}

Subject: Re: [MonoTouch] Setting HighlightedTextColor when
UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None is used
I actually initially thought about that and wrote this code below, but it also
seems to have no effect. If I call cell.SetHighlighted(true, false);
immediately after initializing the cell the highlight is on, but I need it to
highlight only when the row is selected. I'm getting close to saying it can't
be done without a custom cell, but that seems wrong.
public override NSIndexPath WillSelectRow (UITableView tableView, NSIndexPath
indexPath)
{
selectedRowIndex = indexPath;
tableView.CellAt(indexPath).SetHighlighted(true, false);
return indexPath;
}
public override void WillDeselectRow (UITableView tableView, NSIndexPath
indexPath)
{
tableView.CellAt(indexPath).SetHighlighted(false, false);
}

What about
cell.Highlighted = true; // no animation
or
cell.SetHighlighted(true,false); // optional animation
? I'm not really sure what effect you are trying to accomplish with this
code... if it is just to have different colors on every second row, why not
just set the TextColor directly inside your if-else?

Hey all, I've got a UITableViewCell that I want to change the

work when UITableViewCellSelectonStyle is set to something other than None. Do
I have to subclass UITableViewCell to get this to apply or am I just missing
something?
Here's a trimmed down version of my GetCell method. Note: Setting
SelectionStyle to anything but none makes the highlighted color show as
expected when the row is selected
public override UITableViewCell GetCell (UITableView tableView, NSIndexPath
indexPath)
{
// the row index
int row = indexPath.Row;
var dRow = Rows [row];
// get a reusable cell instance
and set the style
var cell =
tableView.DequeueReusableCell (TableCellIdentifier + dRow.ViewName +
dRow.Text); if
(cell == null) {
cell =
InstantiateCell(dRow, UITableViewCellStyle.Subtitle, TableCellIdentifier);
if(indexPath.Row % 2 == 0){
// setting this to anything but None shows the highlighted text color
cell.SelectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None;
var label = cell.TextLabel;
label.TextColor = UIColor.Black;
label.HighlightedTextColor = UIColor.Yellow;
}else{
// setting this to anything but None shows the highlighted text color
cell.SelectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyle.None;
var label = cell.TextLabel;
label.TextColor = UIColor.Black;
label.HighlightedTextColor = UIColor.Yellow;
}
}
Thanks in advance for any insight.
