Positioning a UISwitch at the right location inside a UITableViewCell

[neigaard]

Hi

I am trying to position a UISwitch inside a UITableViewCell, so that it is positioned correctly for iPhone 3/4, iPod Touch and iPad, no matter the orientation. I have tried with this code:

CGRect switchFrame = CGRectMake(cell.frame.size.width - cell.frame.origin.x - 94 - 10, 8, 94, 27);
self.repeatSwitch = [[UISwitch alloc] initWithFrame:switchFrame];
[cell addSubview:self.repeatSwitch];

My code fails totally, even producing different results on iPhone and iPad. It seems the width of the cell is the same for iPhone and iPad??

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thank you
Søren

You can always set this View to the accessoryView property of a UITableViewCell.

Then it will appear on the right side.

Also, which index you place your subview on the cell view will affect whether you see it or not. Also, UITableViewCells have a contentView property, which except for background images, where you would want to put all the UIViews for content, hence the contentView name. But like Labels etc. This way if your cell goes into edit modes, the content view is automatically shrunken for you.
