UITableView contentOffSet is not working properly

Question

In viewWillAppear, I have added UISearchBar as my headerview of UITableView. When view loads, I hides UISearchbar under <

Answer 1

You need to hide the search bar by yourself when you scroll the table. So don't put it as a UITableView header. You could hide it by setting its height to zero. That way if your table view is set to auto resize, it will expand.

Answer 2

self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height -80, 0, 0, 0);

Answer 3

In my case the problem was that I called

 [_myGreatTableView reloadData];

before getting the _tableView.contentOffset.y. This always returned '0'.

So I switched the order of these methods and now it works.

This is quite a strange behavior in my opinion, because offset returned 0 but the UI still kept the scroll position of the table.

Answer 4

I fixed it with layoutIfNeeded()

    self.articlesCollectionView.reloadData()
    self.articlesCollectionView.layoutIfNeeded()
    self.articlesCollectionView.setContentOffset(CGPoint(x: 0, y: 40), animated: false)

Answer 5

In iOS 7/8/9 simple self.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets = NO; solved the problem in my case

Answer 6

The problem is auto masking. Select your table and make sure you have selected all the lines, as in the image below.
