the table cell view:

and I want the view show in the black area in storyboard

Answer 1

You can just build the view directly in the storyboard prototype cells : http://www.appcoda.com/ios-programming-customize-uitableview-storyboard/

And to use the same view in different tableviews present in different controllers, you can just copy and paste (cmd-C cmd-V) the view within the prototype cell, so you dont need the XIB’s at all.

But using the assistant editor, you an drag or copy-paste the views from the XIB to the storyboard too (but thats not recommended)

Hope this helps
