I am loading different components in the tableview. Each component is having different types of data such as video, image, quick reply and other component.
I am able to load all the data and added to the table view and table view height is adjusted based on the data response.
Now my requirement would be one specific component is displayed at the bottom of the screen always. How do I change the Y position of the particular component?
The problem which I am facing now, not able to change the position of that component.
You can use another UIView fixed at the bottom of the screen below your tableView. You can put that component in that UIView. This way it will be fixed at the bottom.
Another option is using a TableViewController instead of a TableView. That way you can have static cells. You can set the last cell at the bottom however you like. It never changes.

I am working on a project to get custom news feeds from Bing news. I created a custom table view cell and populated various UI items in it. But I am having a hard time to make it occupy the entire screen, it starts from extreme left and ends on the right, leaving large gap from the right margin as show in the image. Can anyone help me out, how to correctly fix it with a detailed explanation of how constraints work in Table views and Tableview cells.
Here' what it looks like in the simulator
Remove previous constraints and add constraint to your UITableView like as shown in below image.
So you UITableView will have 0 margin from edges.
Create a UITableViewController. Just drag drop a TableViewCell into it. Add identifier for that cell and use it. By default it will occupy the whole screen.
In your case I guess you might have added constraints to UITableView. Here what you should do is pin your UITableView to Top,Bottom,Right & Left or make UITableView's width equal to SuperView.
I seem to be having a very strange problem with my UITableview cells and autolayout. So my tableview is set up as follows:
I have a UITableView within a UIViewController that I created via Interface builder using Autolayout
My tableview is using UITableViewAutomaticDimension so that the cells can resize based on the text within them.
Each cell has 2 subviews within it. A front view and a back view. The back view contains the buttons for my slide-able cells
I am using NSFetchedResults controller to update the tableview
The problem occurs when I tap on a cell and am taken to the next view. Then I create a core data item within that view and save so that it is inserted into my tableview (now behind the current view controller).
What happens is that the newly inserted cell seems to lose all autolayout constraints and all view elements are on top of each other in the top left of the cell. It also looks like they are not even contained within the front view for the cell (or the front view has a width and height of 0).
Example:
It gets even stranger. If I refresh the tableview by pulling down and the cells are reloaded it corrects itself. However, if I refresh the tableview again then the problem appears again but on a different cell. This bug does not happen consistantly which is rather frustrating.
Any help would be appreciated as I only have a few remaining hairs on my head to pull out at this stage.
Thanks in advance!
So I found out what the issue was. The issue was that I was using size classes in Interface builder but I was only using the iPhone Portrait size class and did all my work in there instead of the "any" size class. Disabling size classes and setting the project to iPhone only fixed all these problems.
Weird I know
I've got custom tableview cells that are 170 px tall. Including the table header I can see two complete cells and a portion of the third. When I scroll the tableview, the cells shift up but do not stop until a portion of the third is above the table.
Is it possible to change the way the table scrolls and allow me to see all of the third cell. A video illustrating the issue is available at https://youtu.be/iuhuR_wDe90
Images of the issue:
It seems you have enabled 'pagination' on your UITableView.
You can get rid of this in Interface Builder, in the Scroll View section there's an option called 'Paging Enabled' which should be switched off.
If you don't use storyboards, tableView.pagingEnabled = NO; will do the trick as well (though it is NO already by default).
I have a UIScrollView with 3 UITableViews stacked horizontally. I switch between these tableviews using a tab-controller on top. However, when I switch to the 2nd or 3rd tab and switch back quickly to 1st the section headers don't show. They display when I scroll the tableView. These are custom headers (jfyi). I tried calling setNeedsDisplay when the tableView is visible, but that does not help because as per Apple Docs :
If you simply change the geometry of the view, the view is typically not redrawn. Instead, its existing content is adjusted based on the value in the view’s contentMode property. Redisplaying the existing content improves performance by avoiding the need to redraw content that has not changed.
Since, only the geometry of the view is changing here, it does not help. Also this happens on all versions iOS 5~6.1 and on simulator and device. Thankfully, this does not crash the app, but its a problem nevertheless. Could someone help? I am attaching pictures for reference. First shows the problem, second: after scrolling the "head(er)less" tableview
EDIT:
I am using simple scrollRectToVisible:animated: to switch between tableviews. This does the trick but I just observed that when I set ...animated:NO all is okay. The problem happens when ...animated:YES
It seems the issue of displaying and scrolling taking place simultaneously for the respective tableview. So what you can do here is:
Remove the scroll animation
or
Just scroll the tableview to top on the tab press event
or
simply reload the tableView which is made visible
I have a tableview that has a large number of fairly tall dynamic cells. I've tried creating the prototypes for these but I've run out of height room in the view.
I can't seem to extend the height of the table view, (or the view it's in). I also can't create the tableview outside the viewController, give it a larger height, and just link to it.
Suggestions? I know I can create the cells programmatically or from a separate nib, but I'd really like to do it via storyboard.
thanks,
Just figured this out myself. Try this:
Double-click the table almost anywhere except where there's an existing control. You can also double-click on the outer edge of the table.
Note that the table view will show a highlighted section that aligns with the cell you've clicked. You've entered some sort of selection mode.
Now use the mouse to scroll up or down. The cells will shift up or down as if you were running the app.
