在uiview中插入自定义uitableviewcell子视图

Question

I have a UIView that holds a UITableView, however the UITableView has a 30 pxl gap at the top in which i would like to add a static UITableViewCell programmatically.

I have tried to do this but I cannot seem to get it to appear, this is the code I am using I am not 100% sure if this is correct as its the first time trying it but to my knowledge it seems like it should be displaying.

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

[selectAllCell setFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 20.0, 320.0, 80.0)];
[selectAllCell.textLabel.text isEqualToString:@"all"];
[self.view insertSubview:selectAllCell aboveSubview:subModelTableView];

//.. other stuff
}

everything else in this view works perfectly.. so just wondering how I can get this uitableviewcell to display.

EDIT, I have updated the code in my viewDidLoad method but still I am not having any luck with this dran thing.

Answer 1

Why would you use a table view cell outside a table view? Just slap a UIView with an embedded button over the empty area. If that doesn't meet your needs for some reason, a fairly simple UIView or UIControl subclass should get the job done.
