setting x position to the UITablecell in UITableView

Question

I have UITableview in that i'm going to load custom table cells.By default cell co-ordinates at zero position but i need place it at my required position (ie,30,0) i have written code like this::

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{

    NSLog(@"tableView willDisplayCell");
     CGRect frame = cell.frame;
    frame.origin.x = 30;
    frame.size.width = 250;
    cell.frame = frame;  
}

for first time Table cell is not loading at mentioned position after reloading it is working fine thanks in advance

Answer 1

Don't change the frame of the cell. Instead, make the cell background whatever colour your overall background is (maybe transparent) and add a view of your desired size as a subview of the cell contentView . Then add all of your content to this view.
