How to take screenshot of expandable uitableview programmatically - ios

Question

I tried to take screenshot of expandable uitableview, I tried to take a screenshot of uitableview but I was not able do that , then I changed tableview frame size to tableview content size. After taking screenshot I changed frame size to old frame size. Now the problem is that I am having expandable section in table view. I'm able to take screenshot of unexpanded table view cell in my screenshot. I need to take the screenshot of unexpanded table view cell content too.

by using this category file u can take the screen shot what ever visible in the screen....
#interface UIImage (MyImage)
+ (UIImage*)imageFromView:(UIView*)view;
+ (UIImage*)imageFromView:(UIView*)view scaledToSize:(CGSize)newSize;
+ (UIImage*)imageWithImage:(UIImage*)image scaledToSize:(CGSize)newSize;
+ (void)beginImageContextWithSize:(CGSize)size;
+ (UIImage *)croppedImage:(UIImage *)myImage :(CGRect)bounds;
#end
#import "UIImage+MyImage.h"
#implementation UIImage (MyImage)
+ (void)beginImageContextWithSize:(CGSize)size
{
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector:#selector(scale)]) {
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] scale] == 2.0) {
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, YES, 2.0);
} else {
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(size);
}
} else {
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(size);
}
}
+ (void)endImageContext
{
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
}
+ (UIImage*)imageFromView:(UIView*)view
{
[self beginImageContextWithSize:[view bounds].size];
BOOL hidden = [view isHidden];
[view setHidden:NO];
[[view layer] renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
[self endImageContext];
[view setHidden:hidden];
return image;
}
+ (UIImage*)imageFromView:(UIView*)view scaledToSize:(CGSize)newSize
{
UIImage *image = [self imageFromView:view];
if ([view bounds].size.width != newSize.width ||
[view bounds].size.height != newSize.height) {
image = [self imageWithImage:image scaledToSize:newSize];
}
return image;
}
+ (UIImage*)imageWithImage:(UIImage*)image scaledToSize:(CGSize)newSize
{
[self beginImageContextWithSize:newSize];
[image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,newSize.width,newSize.height)];
UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
[self endImageContext];
return newImage;
}
+ (UIImage *)croppedImage:(UIImage *)myImage :(CGRect)bounds {
CGImageRef imageRef = CGImageCreateWithImageInRect(myImage.CGImage, bounds);
UIImage *croppedImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:imageRef];
CGImageRelease(imageRef);
CGSize asd = croppedImage.size;
return croppedImage;
}
#end
the method call will be....
yourImageView.image= [UIImage imageFromView:(UIView*)yourTableViewInstance ]
try this....
