Enumerations

MobileTableCellData.AccessoryTypes

AccessoryTypes

Additional UI controls for a cell.

Enum	Description
None	A standard plain cell. This is the default for cells.
Disclosure	Use this when selecting a cell results in the display of another a MobileScreen with another table reflecting the next level in the data model hierarchy. This does not track touches, so it does not call the iOSTable.AccessoryAction event handler. Looks similar to a right arrow or "greater than" symbol.
Checkmark	Use this when a touch on a row results in the selection of that item. This kind of table view is known as a selection list, and it is analogous to a pop-up list. Selection lists can limit selections to one row, or they can allow multiple rows with checkmarks. This does not track touches, so it does not call the iOSTable.AccessoryAction event handler. Looks like a checkmark.
Info	Use this when you wish to display an info icon on the right side of the row. This tracks touches and touching it calls the iOSTable.AccessoryAction event handler.
InfoAndDisclosure	Use this when selecting a cell results in the display of a detail MobileScreen of that item (which may or may not be a table view). This tracks touches and touching it calls the iOSTable.AccessoryAction event handler. Looks like an "i" within a circle.
