I have a UITableView that represents a list of objects, I'd like the user to touch an object, drag it onto another one (as to combine them) and seeing the two disappearing and a new one appearing. I guess that I can't do this with the standard table view editing methods (a row cannot be dragged onto another one, am I right?). Shall I write my touch listeners? how can I do that?

I managed to find a workaround: after the first click on a custom UITableCellView I create a new UIView to put on top of the window that intercepts another touch+drag.

The other touch creates a UIImageView that copies the undelying clicked cell as a Image. This UIImageView can be dragged around along the UIView and then dismissed when necessary.

When I end the touch I look if it ended up a another cell, if so I get its indexPath and compute a coherent action

  • Hi rano, can you post a sample code showing how do you lookup the drop cell? – Felipe Cypriano Jan 06 '11 at 20:14
