Is it possible to disable floating headers in UITableView with UITableViewStylePlain?

Question

I\'m using a UITableView to layout content \'pages\'. I\'m using the headers of the table view to layout certain images etc. and I\'d prefer it if they didn\'t

A variation on @samvermette's solution:

/// Allows for disabling scrolling headers in plain-styled tableviews
extension UITableView {

    static let shouldScrollSectionHeadersDummyViewHeight = CGFloat(40)

    var shouldScrollSectionHeaders: Bool {
        set {
            if newValue {
                tableHeaderView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: bounds.size.width, height: UITableView.shouldScrollSectionHeadersDummyViewHeight))
                contentInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: -UITableView.shouldScrollSectionHeadersDummyViewHeight, left: 0, bottom: 0, right: 0)
            } else {
                tableHeaderView = nil
                contentInset = .zero
            }
        }

        get {
            return tableHeaderView != nil && contentInset.top == UITableView.shouldScrollSectionHeadersDummyViewHeight
        }
    }

}
