UiView fixed on top of UiTableViewController - ios

Question

I need to put an UIView fixed on top of UITableViewController (like a header). I've tried this:
override func scrollViewDidScroll (scrollView: UIScrollView) {
var fixedFrame: CGRect = self.uiTopView.frame;
fixedFrame.origin.y = scrollView.contentOffset.y;
self.uiTopView.frame = fixedFrame;
}
But it does not work and I don't know why. Someone have any idea?

Answer 1

This can not be done, one way to accomplish this is to add the UITableViewController insideUIContainerView
So the structure will be as follows:
ViewController1 contains aUIContainerView this container view has embedded segue
to your tableViewController.
Then you can add the view to the ViewController1.

Answer 2

Why do you actually use UITableViewController instead of UIViewController with a tableView inside?
Maybe you should add your header view first then add you tableview depending on the header's frame.
for example: `import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController,UITableViewDelegate,UITableViewDataSource {
var fixedLabel : UILabel!
var tableView : UITableView!
override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
self.tableView.frame = CGRectMake(0, self.fixedLabel.frame.maxY, self.view.frame.width, self.view.frame.height-70)
self.fixedLabel.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.view.bounds.width,70)
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.fixedLabel = UILabel()
self.fixedLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
self.fixedLabel.text = "This is a fixedLabel"
self.fixedLabel.textAlignment = .Center
self.tableView = UITableView()
self.tableView.delegate = self
self.tableView.dataSource = self
self.view.addSubview(fixedLabel)
self.view.addSubview(tableView)
}
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell : UITableViewCell? = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell")
if cell == nil {
cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "cell")
}
cell?.textLabel?.text = "Your text"
return cell!
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 3
}
}
`
