Question

I have created a UISplitViewApplication as my new project. In the potrait mode I have a button that when clicked will drop down a UITableView. It looks something as the following:

When I clicked on one of the rows, this UITableView is dismissed. Then when I click again on the Groups button, the layout of the UITableView presented is now all messy:

However, when I scroll the TableView so that some of the rows are reloaded again, those that are reloaded are then formatted fine. Why is this and how do I fix this?

Here’s my cell for row at index path:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"MyCell";

    MyCell *cell = (ConvoreCell *) [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    //if (cell == nil) {
        NSArray *topLevelObjects = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"MyCell" owner:nil options:nil];
        for (id currentObject in topLevelObjects){
            if ([currentObject isKindOfClass:[UITableViewCell class]]){
                cell = (MyCell *) currentObject;
                break;
            }
        }
        cell.delegate = self;
   // }


    if ([posts count] > 0){
         cell.star.hidden = YES;

        [lazyImages addLazyImageForCell:cell withIndexPath:indexPath];
        cell.title.text = [[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] message];

        cell.detailed.autoresizesSubviews = YES;
        cell.detailed.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@", [[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] creator] username]];


        if ([[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] count] != 0){
            NSString * URL = [[[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] objectAtIndex:0] url];
            float height = [[(Embed * )[[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] objectAtIndex:0] height] floatValue];
            float width =  [[(Embed * )[[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] objectAtIndex:0] width] floatValue];
            [cell.embed setFrame:CGRectMake(cell.detailed.frame.origin.x, cell.detailed.frame.origin.y + 15, width, height)];
            cell.embed.image = [UIImage imageWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:URL]]];
        }

        if ([[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stars] count] != 0){
            cell.star.hidden = NO;
            cell.star_creator.text = [(Login *)[[[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] stars] objectAtIndex:0] user] username];
        } 

    }
    return cell;
}

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    NSString *cellText =[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] message];
    UIFont *cellFont = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:14.0];
    CGSize constraintSize = CGSizeMake(600.0f, MAXFLOAT);
    CGSize labelSize = [cellText sizeWithFont:cellFont constrainedToSize:constraintSize lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
    float height = 0.0;

    if ([[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] count] != 0)
        height =  [[[[[posts objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] embeds] objectAtIndex:0] height] floatValue];

    if (labelSize.height + 20 + height < 48)
        return 55;
    else
        return labelSize.height + height + 48;

}
