UIRefreshControl - beginRefreshing not working when UITableViewController is inside UINavigationController

Question

I\'ve setup a UIRefreshControl in my UITableViewController (which is inside a UINavigationController) and it works as expected (i.e. pull down fires the correct event). Howe

In addition to @Dymitry Shevchenko solution.

I found nice workaround to this issue. You can create extension to UIRefreshControl that overwrites method:

// Adds code forgotten by Apple, that changes content offset of parent scroll view (table view).
- (void)beginRefreshing
{
    [super beginRefreshing];

    if ([self.superview isKindOfClass:[UIScrollView class]]) {
        UIScrollView *view = (UIScrollView *)self.superview;
        [view setContentOffset:CGPointMake(0, view.contentOffset.y - self.frame.size.height) animated:YES];
    }
}

You can use new class by setting custom class in Identity Inspector for refresh control in Interface Builder.
