Scroll to row in UITable that has dynamically sized cells - uitableview

I am moving from one ViewController to another and I would like to scroll to a specific row in the destination ViewController.
The destination ViewController has cells that contain a WebView each. Each WebView has a different height after it has loaded the HTML content.
When I arrive at the destination ViewController and I use scrollToRowAtIndexPath the table is not jumping to the specific row.
I am presumimg it is because the row height has changed. How do I have the destination ViewController fully load all the WebViews and resize the cells (inherently resizing the UITableView) before calling scrollToRowAtIndexPath?
Let me know if you need more information. Thanks!

Use scrollToRowAtIndexPath in ViewDidAppear method.
This might be because webView is still in process of loading data.

How to scroll a tableViewController's view with only static cells inside?

I have a tableViewController which stores a form for the user to input their information. This form is grouped by a couple of static cells instead of dynamic cells. So it doesn't access the delegate method cellForRowAtIndexPath. Also, I have controlled that user can add some of the attachment and keep stacking. These attachments are stored in a single UIView each. The problem is, when more than 6 attachments were added, the attachment view starts to go out of the screen height. How can I make this tableViewController scrollable?
Please tell me if you need me to show any code.
You don't need to set it scrollable.And you should add these views to table footer view and increase its height at the same time.By this,table view will be able to scroll once its height is bigger than that of frame.

UITableview with Autolayout and NSFetchedResults controller cell layout bug on insert

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

UIScrollView in Custom UITableViewCell mixing up data

I have a UIScrollView in each UITableViewCell of my table view that lays out UIViews horizontally - kind of like the "Featured" section on Apple's App Store. When I'm setting up the UITableViewCell I call a function within the custom UITableViewCell to layout the scroll view. This loops through data assigned to that tableview cell's index path and then creates the custom views and adds them to the scroll view. However, these get mixed up when scrolling the tableview and when the tableview refreshes.
If I clear the subviews before laying them out, it does work. However, I'd like to keep the scroll position at the same point every time it shows the cells. How is this possible?
I've just added an external array that stores the current offset for each scrollview, and then manually set the offset on each scrollview everytime the tableview gets refreshed.

How to dynamically resize UITableViewCell based on UITableView scrolling?

I have tried looking for an answer to this question but so far I haven't got any luck.
Context
I have a UITableView inside a standard UIViewController (NOT a UITableViewController..). I have subclassed UITableViewCell and all the cells in the tableview are from the same class.
Requirement
I would like to find an efficient way to resize the cells based on the scrolling of the tableview. For example, when the cell is at the bottom of the visible list, the height is X. When the cell moves up on the screen, its height should proportionally increase to 2X.
Additional Info
I am close to just ditch the UITableView way and start making my own control that would implement such a feat by subclassing a UIScrollView. However, I would like to see if it is possible before going this path. I did see some very interesting SO posts but nothing that would put me on the right path.
Any hint or help would be highly appreciated.
You would need to respond to the scroll view delegate method scrollViewDidScroll: and implement it to record the cell at the top of the table view and reload the table view. Then your table view delegate method tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath: sets the cell height by the relationship between the index path and the top cell index path.
Your main issue is performance while reloading the table view all the time.
If you wanted to roll your own solution it would be along the lines of the above description anyway, but you would be able to be more efficient than the table view as the table view will call the tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath: method once for every row for every reload in order to calculate the total height of the table content.

ios : tableview not appearing in subview of a scrollview

I have a scrollview with multiple views.Enabled horizontal scrolling.Each view contains a tableview.I have page control in scrollview. when i drag horizontally, the views are appearing without tableview except the first view. Please give me suggestions.
Make sure if setContentSize to your scrollview means scrollview content size is the size of your main view.
When you scroll to next view or if you scroll to view displayed for first time, make sure you reload table. You can implement his through delegate and protocols. For example, when you scroll to second view for first time, then controller should call some method on subview to reload its table.
