Question

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

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.
