ContentInsets doesn't work for UITableView - ios

Question

I have a text box in a TableView and when the user selects a switch it appears ( becomes visible) and a keyboard pops up, and when the user turns off the switch the TextBox disappears and keyboard hides. During the time when the keyboard appears and disappears I want to shift the tableView slightly up and then back to original position. Here is the code
-(IBAction)actionSwitch:(id)sender
{
isSearchTerm = [switchSearchTerm isOn];
[self.tableView reloadData];
if(isSearchTerm == YES)
{
[txtSearchTerm becomeFirstResponder];
floatBottom = self.tableView.contentInset.bottom;
self.tableView.contentInset=UIEdgeInsetsMake(0,0,200,0);
[self.tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:[self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow] atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionTop animated:YES];
}
else
{
[txtSearchTerm resignFirstResponder];
self.tableView.contentInset=UIEdgeInsetsMake(0,0,floatBottom,0);
[self.tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:[self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow] atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionBottom animated:YES];
}
}
The else part doesn't bring the tableview back to its original position, please help.

Answer 1

If your tableView lies in a navigation controller or the rootViewController of a navigation controller and you are doing all this on iOS7+ with UIViewController's property automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets set to YES. You'd better handle the keyboard appear as the document suggested
// Call this method somewhere in your view controller setup code.
- (void)registerForKeyboardNotifications
{
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(keyboardWasShown:)
name:UIKeyboardDidShowNotification object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:#selector(keyboardWillBeHidden:)
name:UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object:nil];
}
// Called when the UIKeyboardDidShowNotification is sent.
- (void)keyboardWasShown:(NSNotification*)aNotification
{
NSDictionary* info = [aNotification userInfo];
CGSize kbSize = [[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] CGRectValue].size;
UIEdgeInsets contentInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0, 0.0, kbSize.height, 0.0);
scrollView.contentInset = contentInsets;
scrollView.scrollIndicatorInsets = contentInsets;
// If active text field is hidden by keyboard, scroll it so it's visible
// Your app might not need or want this behavior.
CGRect aRect = self.view.frame;
aRect.size.height -= kbSize.height;
if (!CGRectContainsPoint(aRect, activeField.frame.origin) ) {
[self.scrollView scrollRectToVisible:activeField.frame animated:YES];
}
}
// Called when the UIKeyboardWillHideNotification is sent
- (void)keyboardWillBeHidden:(NSNotification*)aNotification
{
UIEdgeInsets contentInsets = UIEdgeInsetsZero;
scrollView.contentInset = contentInsets;
scrollView.scrollIndicatorInsets = contentInsets;
}
There is another way to do this. Both can be found in "Moving Content That Is Located Under the Keyboard" "Text Programming Guide for iOS"

I solved this by setting the extend under top bar property to NO , under view controllers properties in Property inspector by selecting the ViewController.
