Is there any way to set the width of a UITableView section header view to something less than the full width of the UITableView? Now matter how wide I set the view returned by tableView:viewForHeaderInSection:, the header view is stretched to the width of the UITableView.
Here is my code:
-(UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView *label = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50)];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
label.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin;
return label;
}
Try this ., if i have understood your question this will surely work for you
-(UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView *headerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 60)];
headerView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UIView *label = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0,0, 50, 50)];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
label.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin;
[headerView addSubview:label];
return headerView;
}
-(NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
int aSection = [[self.sectionsToDisplay objectAtIndex:section] integerValue];
if([[self.groupHeadings objectAtIndex:aSection] isEqualToString:#""])
return nil;
return [self.groupHeadings objectAtIndex:aSection];
}
Simple solution: return a UIView which contains nothing but your desired header view, while giving your headerView the UIViewAutoresizing property flexible right margin, so it won't scale with it's superview (or maybe flexible left margin, or both, depending on what loomk you want ;]).

I am developing an application in which I need header to customize and add my own button just for single section. I googled and done some code where I am able to add button, but I am facing two issue.
Titles of other's section is not showing.
Button not show properly because of tableview scroll size same after adding button.
Here is what I am doing.
- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
UIView * headerView = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 40)] autorelease];
[headerView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
if(section==2){
float width = tableView.bounds.size.width;
int fontSize = 18;
int padding = 10;
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(padding, 2, width - padding, fontSize)];
label.text = #"Texto";
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
label.shadowColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
label.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0,1);
label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:fontSize];
[headerView addSubview:label];
UIButton * registerButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[registerButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"P_register_btn.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[registerButton setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 150)];
[headerView addSubview:registerButton];
return headerView;
}
return headerView;
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView{
return 3;
}
- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
if(section==0)
return #"Registration";
else if(section==1)
return #"Player Detail";
return nil;
}
Here is Image of my out put in which Texto text show but button is under that area where the end limit of table view scroll height and also section 0 and 1 title is not showing I also block code for first and second section in viewforheaderinsection. Thanks in advance.
The other header names don't appear because the viewForHeader method only answers for section 2. Once implemented, the datasource expects that method to be the authority on all headers. Just add some else logic for the other sections....
- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
UIView * headerView;
UILabel *label;
if (section==2) {
headerView = [[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(1, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 40)] autorelease];
[headerView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
// and so on
return headerView;
} else if (section == 0) {
label = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,tableView.bounds.size.width, 44)] autorelease];
label.text = #"Section 0 Title";
return label;
} else .. and so on
The header answered by this method looks to be 40px high (see initWithFrame), but the button being added is 150px high (see setFrame: for the button). That's the likely the root cause of the button issue. Try implementing:
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return (section == 2)? 150.0 : UITableViewAutomaticDimension;
}
I am trying to add textfield to header view. I could not figure out why I can't see my textfield. When I use a label it works perfectly.
Following is the code:
-(UIView*) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
UIView *tableHeaderView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(40, 0, self.view.frame.size.width - 70, 30)];
UITextField *sectionTitleTF1 = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(58, 0, 500, 30)];
sectionTitleTF1.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[sectionTitleTF1 becomeFirstResponder];
[tableHeaderView addSubview:sectionTitleTF1];
return tableHeaderView;
}
Thanks
Try this,
You can adjust view, textfield frame based on your device ipad or iphone
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
return 30.0;
}
-(UIView*) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
UIView *tableHeaderView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(40, 0, self.view.frame.size.width - 70, 30)];
tableHeaderView.backgroundColor =[UIColor grayColor];
UITextField *sectionTitleTF1 = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(58, 0, 500, 30)];
sectionTitleTF1.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[sectionTitleTF1 setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[sectionTitleTF1 setFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:15]];
[sectionTitleTF1 setBorderStyle:UITextBorderStyleLine];
[sectionTitleTF1 setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentCenter];
[sectionTitleTF1 setKeyboardType:UIKeyboardTypeNumbersAndPunctuation];
[sectionTitleTF1 becomeFirstResponder];
[tableHeaderView addSubview:sectionTitleTF1];
return tableHeaderView;
}
Have you implemented this method of the datasource? It is a must if you want your section header to show.
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section{
return 30.0;
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 1;
}
Also, if you are unaware, you can return the UITextField directly rather than adding as a subview. However you may want it as a subview, depending on what you want to achieve.
EDIT: Datasource not Delegate
just add this
sectionTitleTF1.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyleRoundedRect;
then you will see it
How to change position of the text in tableview section? I use viewForHeaderInSection:Section and i create there somwthing like this:
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 30)];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
label.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Gotham-Bold" size:17.0f];
id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo> sectionInfo = [[self.comlpetedFetchedResultsController sections] objectAtIndex:section];
label.text = [#" " stringByAppendingString:[sectionInfo name]];
return label;
}
It doesnt matter what size is the parameters in UILabel frame, i always get the same result:
How can i center text in UILabel vertically?
Thanks
Try
[yourLabel setNumberOfLines:0];
[yourLabel sizeToFit];
[yourLabel setContentMode:UIViewContentModeCenter];
Put the label in a UIView then return the view:
UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 30)];
[view addSubview:label];
return view;
Make sure you implement the following method:
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
otherwise your view will simply be on top of the cells.
Go through this link: NSTextAlignment
Also code snippet given below, may help you
UILabel *myLabel = [[UILabel alloc] init];
[myLabel setText:#"Abc"];
[myLabel setTextAlignment:NSTextAlignmentCenter];
I created a UITableView of which I adjusted the height and background of the section header. This all works as expected but the cell (row) below it becomes smaller. It almost seems that the section header goes over the first cell.
Is there a way to solve this? Or should I ask, how to solve this?
My code of the section header:
- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView *headerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 30)];
UILabel *headerLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 30)];
headerLabel.text = [self tableView:tableView titleForHeaderInSection:section];
headerLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:16];
[headerLabel setTextColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
headerLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage: [UIImage imageNamed:#"menuSectionBg.png"]];
[headerView addSubview:headerLabel];
return headerView;
}
You should not adjust the height of the cells' views, but instead implement the
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section;
method in your UITableViewDelegate implementation.
The heights for the cells are calculated before the cells are even created.
I want to display a table with custom header titles.
The table view is attached to a controller class that implements the tableview delegate and data source protocols but is not a subclass of UIViewController because the table is a subview to be displayed above another tableview.
some snippets of my code:
The tableview is created programmatically:
_myListView = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:tableFrame style:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
[_myListView setDataSource:self.myListController];
[_myListView setDelegate:self.myListController];
[_myListView setBackgroundColor:darkBackgroundColor];
where myListController is a strong property in the class.
For the number of rows in sections:
-(NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
…
return count;
}
The number of sections:
-(NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return [someDelegate sectionCount];
}
For the custom Header View:
-(UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView* headerView = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, SectionHeaderHeight)];
UILabel* sectionHeaderTitle = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 3, 300, 24)];
[headerView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
sectionHeaderTitle.text = [self myTitleForHeaderInSection:section];
sectionHeaderTitle.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
sectionHeaderTitle.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
[headerView addSubview:sectionHeaderTitle];
return headerView;
}
For the custom headerViewHeight (as required since iOS5):
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
if ( [self tableView:tableView numberOfRowsInSection:section] > 0) {
return SectionHeaderHeight;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
Sadly, the tableview does not display any section headers just as if I would return nil.
However, I have checked with a breakpoint, that the code actually returns an UIView.
Everything else works fine.
What am I missing? PLease, don't hesitate to make me feel ashamed of my self.
I don't really understand why you want to use a custom view, and not the "standard" one ? You may have your reasons, but I don't see anything in your code telling me why :)
I would personally just use this:
- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
if (section == 0) return #"First section header title";
if (section == 1) return #"Second section header title";
else return nil;
}
Tell me if that's not what you're looking for !
I seem to have found a solution:
I have created a lazy loading strong property for each header view I want to display. (luckily there are only three)
Now the views are shown.
It seems that the header views got deallocated without the strong references before the table was rendered.
Could it be that there is a connection to the class implementing the table view delegate and data source protocols is not a UIViewController?
Text Color you change it to Black color and check once.
sectionHeaderTitle.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
you try this code this work on my side :-)
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView *view=[[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 24)];
UIImage *myImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"SectionBackGround.png"];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:myImage];
imageView.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,320,24);
UIImage *imageIcon = [UIImage imageNamed:#"SectionBackGround.png"];
UIImageView *iconView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:myImage];
iconView.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,320,24);
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 24)];
label.text = [tableView.dataSource tableView:tableView titleForHeaderInSection:section];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:14];
[view addSubview:imageView];
[view addSubview:iconView];
[view addSubview:label];
return view;
}
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return 24;
}
