Search Results Visibly Scrolling Underneath the Status Bar
ios, uinavigationbar, uiscrollview, uisearchbar, uitableview
Solution
After several face palms, it all came down to the lack of this line of code:
self.definesPresentationContext = YES;
Setting the presentation context to `YES` indicates that the view controller's view should be covered when the view controller presents the `UISearchController`.
Problem
When performing a search on a dataset via a `UISearchBar`, the search results successfully display in the `UITableViewController`'s `UITableView`. However, when scrolling down through the results, the `UITableView`'s rows visibly appear underneath the `UINavigationBar` and the simulator's status bar. This obviously is not the look that I'm going for. Ideally, I would like the `UISearchBar` to act as the `UITableView`'s header with all search results being contained below the `UISearchBar`'s scope buttons, but my attempts have been unsuccessful. Below is the Storyboard setup of the relevant `UITableViewController` and its `UITableView`'s properties. Below is the relevant code that I am using to setup the `UISearchController` and its `UISearchBar`. BallotTunesSearchTableViewController.h ``` @interface BallotTunesSearchTableViewController : UITableViewController <UISearchControllerDelegate, UISearchResultsUpdating, UISearchBarDelegate> ``` BallotTunesSearchTableViewController.m ``` - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; self.appDelegate = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate]; // Initialize the search controller self.searchController = [[UISearchController alloc] initWithSearchResultsController:nil]; self.searchController.searchResultsUpdater = self; self.searchController.dimsBackgroundDuringPresentation = NO; // Setup the search bar self.searchController.searchBar.delegate = self; self.searchController.searchBar.scopeButtonTitles = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObjects:SongScopeName, ArtistScopeName, AlbumScopeName, nil]; self.tableView.tableHeaderView = self.searchController.searchBar; } ``` Update: Note that the `UITableViewController` is embedded in a `UINavigationController`, and when setting the translucence of the `UINavigationBar` to `NO`, the `UISearchBar` slides off the view along with the `UINavigationBar`. Also note that I am not implementing the `UISearchBar` in Storyboard (however, I may take that route if I can't get my current setup to work).
