How can I add a top margin to my tableview in Xcode?
I'm trying to add an image on the very top of the first cell of a table view. How can i make the table view have a top margin? Right now, the image is just overlapping the tableview. I am trying to just get the table view to come down a little bit. I do not want to make it smaller or something like that. I just want to add a button to the top of the tableview.

Answer
I am not sure if I understand your question, if you are trying to have a margin between your table and the view try this:
Swift 3
self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 20,left: 0,bottom: 0,right: 0)
Swift 2
self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(20, 0, 0, 0);
