I am using some background color for the tabelView and style is grouped. The text in the header for the sections is not clear so I need to modify the the text color so that the header text should be visible. I want to know can we change the header text's color and size?
Adding to terente's answer:
- (UIView *) tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
if (section == 0) {
CGRect screenRect = [[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame];
UIView* headerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, screenRect.size.width, 44.0)];
//headerView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleToFill;
// Add the label
UILabel *headerLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10.0, -5.0, 300.0, 90.0)];
headerLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
headerLabel.opaque = NO;
headerLabel.text = @"Header";
headerLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
headerLabel.highlightedTextColor = [UIColor blackColor];
//this is what you asked
headerLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:17];
headerLabel.shadowColor = [UIColor clearColor];
headerLabel.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0.0, 1.0);
headerLabel.numberOfLines = 0;
headerLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
[headerView addSubview: headerLabel];
[headerLabel release];
// Return the headerView
return headerView;
}
else return nil;
}
You can use [UIFont fontWithName:@"<name of your font>" size:24.0];
for other fonts
