Question

Am using UIActivity indicator as UItableviewfooter,
my code is shown here

spinner = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc]initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];
 spinner.frame=CGRectMake(0, 0, 310, 44);
[spinner startAnimating];

self.myTableView.tableFooterView=spinner;

this works quite well in simulator, but when i run it in device the activity indicator seems stretched in both axis as per the cell dimensions .

Answer 1

spinner.frame=CGRectMake(0, 0, 310, 44);

Probably because you’re setting the width of the activity spinner as 310 pts. Instead, set it to 44 (to make the frame square), and adjust the x origin parameter to center it.

I’m not able to test this at the moment, but it’d probably be in the form of:

CGFloat activityWidth = 44;
CGFloat activityHeight = 44;
CGFloat tableFooterViewWidth = self.myTableView.tableFooterView.frame.size.width;

spinner.frame=CGRectMake(tableFooterViewWidth - (activityWidth/2),
                         0,
                         activityWidth,
                         activityHeight);
