Question

So I have a subclass of UITableViewController that loads some data from the internet and uses MBProgressHUD during the loading process. I use the standard MBProgressHUD initialization.

    HUD = [[MBProgressHUD alloc] initWithView:self.view];
    [self.view addSubview:HUD];

    HUD.delegate = self;
    HUD.labelText = @"Loading";

    [HUD show:YES];

This is the result:

.

Is there any way to resolve this issue, or should I just abandon MBProgressHUD?

Thanks!

It’s probably because self.view is a UITableView, which may dynamically add/remove subviews including the headers, which could end up on top of the HUD after you add it as a subview. You should either add the HUD directly to the window, or (for a little more work but perhaps a better result) you could implement a UIViewController subclass which has a plain view containing both the table view and the HUD view. That way you could put the HUD completely on top of the table view.
