UITableView loads with cells in the middle of the TableView. Why? - iphone

Question

Context
Building for iOS 7
Two UITableViews on a viewcontroller
Using constraints so tableview resize like I'd like for between 3.5inch and 4inch screen sizes.
What I've tried
Read UITableView documentation
Search stackoverflow
tried this code: [self.bottomTableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:0 atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionTop animated:NO];
Result
The content in the bottom tableView loads in the middle of the tableview. I can scroll those cells upwards towards the top of the table view, but they "snap" back to the middle. How do I avoid this?
Update
This is how the tableview looks on load. The green background shows all the white space that left on the top half of the bottom table view.
This is the code:
#pragma mark - Table View Methods
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
if (tableView == self.topTableView) {
return [self.array count];
}
else{
return [self.array count];
}
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = #"SimpleTableItem";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
}
if (tableView == self.topTableView) {
cell.textLabel.text = #"60";
return cell;
}
else{
cell.textLabel.text = #"60";
return cell;
}
}
-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
}

Everything is fine with your code. It seems to be a bug with Xcode and iOS 7 unless I missed something in the WWDC documentation.
He applies the height of the navbar to the first element in the subviews array. It doesn't matter if the element is actually under the bar, he just blindly applies it. You can change the order in the storyboard, lets say you move the bottom tableview to the top, then the bottom view has the problem.
I see two options.
If you disable "Under Top Bars" on the ViewController everything is fine. Or you move the UILabel to the top. There is nothing he can adjust with the static label. Maybe Xcode 5.0.1 that was released with the Maverics GM will fix that. Still downloading that one. Will try as soon DL is done.
