Prevent indentation of UITableViewCell (contentView) while editing

September 14, 2023 by Tarik

Use the UITableViewDelegate method:

- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
        shouldIndentWhileEditingRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath 
{

    return NO;
}

This will work for both grouped and non-grouped UITableView types. However, if you have a grouped tableview, you can use this property on the cell:

cell.shouldIndentWhileEditing = NO;
