Subview covers up first row of UITableView

Question

Among other objects, I currently have a UITableView with a UIView subview. The height of the UIView subview is set to 0, by default in Interface Builder.

When I update the height of the UIView subview programmatically, it covers up the first row of the UITableView. I cannot adjust the y-position of the frame of the UITableView because it moves both the UITableView and the UIView subview.

Is there a way to avoid having the UIView subview cover the row of the UITableView?

Answer 1

Check out the tableHeaderView property of UITableView for this. Setting this property to be an empty view may solve your problem.
