Question

Using the basic starting app from XCode for a navigation based application, I’m trying to change the frame of the UITableView.

Here’s what i’m trying to do:

All I want to be able to do, is to set the tableView.view.frame to be a different size than the space provided for it.

If this isn’t possible, how would I go about doing it by building up the views (if i create a UIView and add a UITableView to it, I can control the size, but then I seem to have trouble wiring up the NavigationBar etc to work the same way).

Cheers in advance

Answer 1

To do that your UITableView has to be embedded in a UIView. Best way to do that is to create a new UIViewController (without a table view) and add a table view into it. Don’t forget to connect up the UITableView‘s delegate/datasource to your controller and implement the UITableViewDelegate/UITableViewDataSource methods.
