UIRefreshControl at the bottom of the UITableView iOS6?

Question

Is it possibile add UIRefreshControl at the bottom of the UITableView? I would use it to load more data. Please, Any suggest?

Answer 1

You can use UIView to customize your refreshControl at bottom. Create UIView and add it to UITableView as footerView.

UIView* footerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 50)];

[footerView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"refreshImage.png"]]];

tableView.tableFooterView = footerView;

Hide it: tableView.tableFooterView.hidden = YES;

Implement UIScrollView delegate -

(void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
    if ((scrollView.contentOffset.y + scrollView.frame.size.height) >= scrollView.contentSize.height)
    {
             tableView.tableFooterView.hidden = NO;
            // call method to add data to tableView
    }

}

before adding data to tableView save current offset by CGPoint offset = tableView.contentOffset;

call reloadData then set previously saved offset back to tableView [tableView setContentOffset:offset animated:NO];

So that you can feel new data added at bottom.
