    <p>Using custom views for the cell background allows you to fully customise the look of the cell, but might not scale well when the screen orientation is changed. Also, if all you need is a gradient background that works in both plain cells and grouped style cells, you might be best off with this...</p> <p>I have another solution, which is far less code and only requires a gradient image. The rounded corners of the group cell style are still drawn by the framework, so we don't need to worry about providing a custom image for the top, middle and bottom cell styles to cater for the rounded corners with this method. This is how it looks:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ZBCLb.png" alt="Image showing the table view cells containing the gradient background in grouped style with rounded corners"></p> <p>The gradient image is a single pixel wide and as high as the cell (which is 44 pixels in this example). </p> <pre><code>cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"cellBackground_1x44.png"]]; </code></pre> <p>The code makes use of the colorWithPatternImage method on UIColor, available since iOS 2.0. This code should be called in <code>tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:</code>. It isn't necessary to repeat the call when a cell is re-used, only when the cell is initially created.</p> <p>To go with the grey gradient I am using, I found it useful to set the selection colour for selected cells to match:</p> <pre><code>cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray; </code></pre> <p>You might also want to change the colour of the cell borders too, using something like:</p> <pre><code>[self.tableView setSeparatorColor:[UIColor darkGrayColor]]; </code></pre> <p>Well, that's it. I hope people find this useful. I was searching online yesterday for a few hours and only came up with references containing custom drawing code which generated gradients and rounded corners, or I found links to Matt Coneybeare's "HOW TO MAKE CUSTOM DRAWN GRADIENT BACKGROUNDS IN A GROUPED UITABLEVIEW WITH CORE GRAPHICS" blog post. All work fine, but if you just want something simple I believe this is it.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
