I am trying to add a custom view to the header of each of my UITableView's sections. I am using this delegate method to return the desired view. It is working partly as it causes the cell sections to be spread out as if there was a header there, however neither the text or UIButton actually appear. I know this method is being called as I places an NSLog in the method to see if it was. Am I making some kind of silly mistake, or is this not the right way of doing this?
- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
UIView* customView = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 44.0)];
customView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
UILabel * headerLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableView.bounds.size.width, 44.0)];
headerLabel.textColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
headerLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:16];
UIButton *headerButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
// add button to right corner of section
return customView;
switch (section) {
case 0:
headerLabel.text = @"Team Name";
break;
case 1:
headerLabel.text = @"Captain";
break;
case 2:
headerLabel.text = @"Wicket Keeper";
break;
case 3:
headerLabel.text = @"Batting Order";
headerButton.center = CGPointMake( 160.0, 22.0);
headerButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
headerButton.tag = section;
[headerButton addTarget:self action:@selector(enableCellReordering:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[customView addSubview:headerButton];
break;
default:
break;
}
[customView addSubview:headerLabel];
return customView;
}
Found it, you return customView;
before the switch
statement.
