An extra view appears in cell when pressing reorder dragger, why?

I have an UITableView with varying height, and when pressing reorder control, in the cell view structure a new view appears. Normally it is not a problem, but sometimes its height is quite big, and it overlaps, with cell below.

  • Why this view appears?
  • How can I get rid of it?
  • Or prevent to overlap other cells?

Solution

  • This view is part of the reorder mechanism and can't be removed. It is used to hide the cell content while you drag a screenshot view above the tableview.

    If you set the cell clipsToBounds as YES, it should prevent it's content overlapping other cells.
