UITableView scrollToRow no longer works on iOS 11 right after adding a new row

Question

I\'ve noticed a weird UITableView behaviour which only seems to occur on iOS 11 devices.

Right after inserting a new row (changing data source and then calling reloadDat

Answer 1

Not sure if the situation I encountered applies to this question, but I also had a situation where UITableView.scrollTo... started misbehaving from iOS 11.

In my case, I was calling UITableView.reload... and UITableView.scrollTo... consecutively. And what it turned out is that the order matters.

This works :

tableView.reloadData()
tableView.scrollToRow(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)

This doesn't :

tableView.scrollToRow(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)
tableView.reloadData()

Hopefully this helps.
