Add padding to Section Header in UITableView

Question

I created this section header title and unfortunately I don\'t know how to add some padding on the right.

Answer 1

I found that adjusting it in the storyboard does the trick. Click on the tableView and set the Separator Inset on Left and Right edges. Make sure to click on the tableView and not the cell.

Answer 2

You can do something like this:

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
    let view = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 20, height: 20))
    let label = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x: 15, y: 5, width: tableView.frame.width, height: 20))
    label.text = "Days"
    label.textAlignment = .right
    view.addSubview(label)
    return view
}
