Question

I have a UITableViewController that show data in cells. In viewWillAppear I add a UIView to tableHeaderView with this method self.tableView.tableHeaderView =headerView;

In headerView I add a UISearchBar and a UISegmentControl programmatically. I set UISearchBar delegate like this

self.searchDisplay.delegate = self;
self.searchDisplay.searchBar.delegate = self;
self.searchDisplay.searchResultsDataSource = self;
self.searchDisplay.searchResultsTableView.delegate = self;

the searchDisplay is UISearchDisplayController.

The search is work perfectly but my problem is when I select one cell from searchResultsTableView and go to another viewController when touch back button in UINavigationController and come back to this view the table doesn’t scroll anymore.

I add this two method in viewDidLoad and viewWillAppear but still doesn’t work

self.tableView.bounces = YES;
self.tableView.scrollEnabled = YES;

It’s work perfectly when I select one row from table without search and go and come back.

What’s the problem ?

Answer 1

You are actually using two tableviews on the view, (self.tableView and self.searchDisplay.searchBarTableView) one for showing data, and one for showing the searched data. I think the searchViewController is staying on the screen after the segue.

There’s a trick to show the whole data and search results in a single tableView (no need to use UISearchDisplayController)

Just do the following to show the search results:

self.tableView.dataSource = self;
self.tableView.delegate = self;

for the actual data, you can empty the UISearchBar and load the whole data in table view datasource.
