UITableView titleForHeaderInSection shows all caps

Question

I am using titleForHeaderInSection to show a header for a UITableView section. It worked fine with the iOS6 SDK, but the iOS7 SDK shows the header in all CAPS.

I guess

Answer 1

Thanks @Animal451. This is more generic solution that would work with any type of header string.

// We need to return the actual text so the header height gets correctly calculated
- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return self.headerString;
}

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayHeaderView:(UIView *)view forSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    UITableViewHeaderFooterView *header = (UITableViewHeaderFooterView *)view;
    [header.textLabel setText:self.headerString];       //String in the header becomes uppercase. Workaround to avoid that.

}

To avoid duplication the header string can be declared anywhere else. I have done it in the -viewDidLoad method.
