I have a UIPopoverController containing a UITableView. The popover is resized in its view controller\'s -viewDidAppear function to fit th

Answer 1

I think this may be the wrong way to go about it, since you're having to re-do the built-in behaviour that positions the arrow to begin with.

I don't resize popover content in viewDidAppear. I set the contentSizeForViewInPopover property in the view controller's viewDidLoad method, e.g.:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(320, 155); // sized for a 3-row UITableView
}

(Quick warning: if you're developing a universal app, this code will cause a run-time crash on devices running 3.1.x and below.)

You can also set the content size for the popover controller before you present it, which should take care of your problem. Check out the popoverContentSize property.

Answer 2

According to this answer, you can call presentPopoverFromRect:inView: on the popover again and it will reposition the arrow. I haven't tested this myself.
