UIView not visible in UITableView Header - ios

Why won't my UIView (created below) show up in the UITableViewHeader that I try to add it to?
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake ( 20, 20, 400, 400)];
searchBar = (UISearchBar *)self.tableView.tableHeaderView;
[searchBar.subviews objectAtIndex:0] removeFromSuperview];
searchBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[view addSubview:searchBar];
self.tableView.tableHeaderView = nil;
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 60, self.view.frame.size.width, 60)];
label.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.0 green:1.0 blue:1.0 alpha:.35];
label.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, -1.0);
label.text = #"188 People";
label.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"HelveticaNeue-Bold" size:12.0];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[view addSubview:label];
self.tableView.tableHeaderView = view;

- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake ( 20, 20, 400, 400)];
searchBar = (UISearchBar *)self.tableView.tableHeaderView;
[searchBar.subviews objectAtIndex:0] removeFromSuperview];
searchBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[view addSubview:searchBar];
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 60, self.view.frame.size.width, 60)];
label.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.0 green:1.0 blue:1.0 alpha:.35];
label.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, -1.0);
label.text = #"188 People";
label.textColor = [UIColor grayColor];
label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"HelveticaNeue-Bold" size:12.0];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[view addSubview:label];
return view;//Please note the header will look the same for each section. You can add a switch or if/else to augment this
}
-As a side note, if you're planning on using the label here to set the text for the header, I suggest looking into the following methods:
-(NSString*)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section;
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section;

How to draw UILabel with padding text not hidden?

I will drawing UILabel with code
CustomLabel *label = [[CustomLabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 260, 100)];
label.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor redColor] CGColor];
label.layer.borderWidth = 3.0;
[label setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:16]];
CALayer * l1 = [label layer];
[l1 setMasksToBounds:YES];
[l1 setCornerRadius:10.0];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentLeft; // UITextAlignmentCenter, UITextAlignmentLeft
label.textColor=[UIColor whiteColor];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
label.numberOfLines=4;
label.lineBreakMode=NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", message];
label.tag = index;
[label sizeToFit];
And of course, i will found a solution from stackoverflow for create padding for label
with code
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
self.edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(5,5,5,5); //customize padding here
}
return self;
}
- (void)drawTextInRect:(CGRect)rect {
[super drawTextInRect:UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, self.edgeInsets)];
}
Everything working fine, but text in my label showing not good, here is my label screenshot.
I want like this.
Please help and thanks for your time.
you would want to have a look into this library.. its awesome and totally configurable...

UITableview Cell Height is not calculated properly and cells overlap

I need to create and populate custom cells. These cells height are huge about 300-400.
So I have a populateCellView function , I call that function on heightForRowAtIndexPath to calculate height and in cellForRowAtIndexPath to add that view to cell content view, but somehow sometimes cells overlap.
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return [self populateCellView:indexPath.row].frame.size.height;
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
UIView *populateCell= nil;
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
populateCell=[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
[[populateCell layer] setBorderWidth:2.0f];
populateCell= [self populateCellView:indexPath.row];
[[cell contentView] addSubview:populateCell];
}
if (!populateCell){
populateCell = (UIView*)[cell viewWithTag:1];
populateCell= [self populateCellView:indexPath.row];
}
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
return cell;

Any idea why cells overlaps?
Its your UITableview cellforIndexPath causing overlap
try this
if (!populateCell){
populateCell = (UIView*)[cell viewWithTag:1];
populateCell= [self populateCellView:indexPath.row];
if ([[cell contentView] subviews]){
for (UIView *subview in [[cell contentView] subviews]) {
[subview removeFromSuperview];
}
}
[[cell contentView] addSubview:populateCell];
}
cell.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
At the end of the UITableViewDataSource method, tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath:, you have to call [[cell contentView] addSubView:populateCell]. If the table dequeued a cell successfully, you have to retrieve the appropriate populateCell and add it to the contentView.
If you use storyboards, and set a different height for the cells, and the rows in the tableview, the height will usually overlap. The other answers are also highly valid, but usually when I've encountered this problem, the bug lies in a different value on row height and cell height in the tableview object in your storyboard...

Custom drawing UICollectionViewCell subViews for performance optimization

In my UICollectionViewCell subclass I have this code to layout the subViews I want:
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
_titleLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(97, 10, 190, 40)];
_titleLabel.font = [UIFont boldFlatFontOfSize:22];
_titleLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
_fromLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(97, 35, 190, 30)];
_fromLabel.font = [UIFont flatFontOfSize:14];
_fromLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UIView *containerView = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 90, 90)];
containerView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"cream_pixels"]] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.8];
[self.contentView addSubview:containerView];
_iconView = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50)];
[_iconView setCenter:containerView.center];
_iconView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
_iconView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
_iconView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"envelopeIcon.png"];
_iconView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[containerView addSubview:_iconView];
_dateLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(97, self.contentView.frame.size.height - 23, self.contentView.frame.size.width-97, 25)];
[_dateLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[_dateLabel setFont:[UIFont boldFlatFontOfSize:13]];
[_dateLabel setTextColor:[[UIColor wetAsphaltColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.6f]];
[_dateLabel setTextAlignment:NSTextAlignmentLeft];
[_dateLabel setLineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByCharWrapping];
[_dateLabel setNumberOfLines:0];
_typeLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.f, 0.f , 4, self.contentView.frame.size.height)];
_typeLabel.layer.cornerRadius = 0.f;
_typeLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor belizeHoleColor];
[self.contentView addSubview:_titleLabel];
[self.contentView addSubview:_fromLabel];
[self.contentView addSubview:_typeLabel];
[self.contentView addSubview:_dateLabel];
self.backgroundColor = [[UIColor cloudsColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:1.f];
self.layer.cornerRadius = 3.2f;
self.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
self.layer.contentsScale = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale;
self.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor silverColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.2].CGColor;
self.layer.borderWidth = 0.5f;
self.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.35f;
self.layer.shadowRadius = 3.f;
self.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, 3.f);
self.layer.shadowPath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:self.bounds].CGPath;
self.layer.shouldRasterize = YES;
[_titleLabel setText:#"Nuevo Mensaje"];
}
return self;
}
I understand that for performance, it's recommended that the subviews are added to the cell using custom drawing, and not by layering the contents of it.
How can I achieve this?

how to Remove Dynamically Created UIView and UILabel text?

I am adding some dynamic UIView named as *cellSeparator and other UILabels...now what happen is when i again call this code then its rewrite the label text and overwrite on previously created label text...i am not very much aware to this ios development.so can anyone please tell me how can i remove this UIView dynamically before creating again?beacause UIView is dynamically created i dont know how to remove that UIview
UILabel *indexLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, self.view.frame.size.height-150, self.view.frame.size.width/2,30)];
[indexLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
indexLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
indexLabel.text = #"Details:-";
indexLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:20.00];
UILabel *tagLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, self.view.frame.size.height-120, self.view.frame.size.width/2, 30)];
tagLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

NSLog(#"LOg %#",imageStyle);
NSLog(#"LOg %#",imageType);
NSLog(#"LOg %#",imageWeight);
tagLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"The Id of Jewl Is: %#",imageId];
imageTypelabel= [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, self.view.frame.size.height-90, self.view.frame.size.width/2, 30)];
imageTypelabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
imageTypelabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"The Type of Jewl Is: %#",imageType];
imageStylelabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, self.view.frame.size.height-60, self.view.frame.size.width/2, 30)];
imageTypelabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth];
[cellSeparator setContentMode:UIViewContentModeTopLeft];
[cellSeparator setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[self.view addSubview:cellSeparator];
You could write a method to remove all the subviews of the view and modify this code according to your need.
- (void)removeSubviewsOfView
{
NSArray *subViews = [self.view subviews];
for(UIView *view in subViews)
{
[view removeFromSuperview];
}
}

Auto position subviews of UINavigationBar's titleView

I have a custom titleView for displaying Navigation title and sub-title.
The title font is bigger than sub-title.
Here's what I have now:
CGRect headerTitleSubtitleFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 44);
UIView* _headerTitleSubtitleView = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:headerTitleSubtitleFrame] autorelease];
_headerTitleSubtitleView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth;
_headerTitleSubtitleView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
_headerTitleSubtitleView.autoresizesSubviews = YES;
CGRect titleFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 24);
UILabel *titleView = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:titleFrame] autorelease];
titleView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth;
titleView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
titleView.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:20];
titleView.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
titleView.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
titleView.shadowColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
titleView.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, -1);
titleView.text = #"Title";
titleView.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
CGRect subtitleFrame = CGRectMake(0, 24, 200, 20);
UILabel *subtitleView = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:subtitleFrame] autorelease];
subtitleView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
subtitleView.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:13];
subtitleView.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
subtitleView.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
subtitleView.shadowColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
subtitleView.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0, -1);
subtitleView.text = #"subtitle";
subtitleView.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
_headerTitleSubtitleView.autoresizingMask = (UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin |
UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin);
[_headerTitleSubtitleView addSubview:titleView];
[_headerTitleSubtitleView addSubview:subtitleView];
self.navigationItem.titleView = _headerTitleSubtitleView;
I want to have the ability to remove subTitleView at some point in my code,
but that makes the titleView look out of center (vertically).
So my question is, how would you implement auto-positioning here?
should I use layoutSubviews ?
if so, what would be the proper way to override it?
I thought that when the container view has an autoresizingMask it will adjust it's size according to the "total" size of it's subviews (?).
Thanks
I was able to resolve this issue by creating a separate view class and
implement layoutSubviews.
Title label subview is always attached.
Subtitle label subview can be removed/added whenever need - which
will call layoutSubViews to make re-position the Title label view in center.
