Set UITableView content inset permanently

Question

In my app I have a UISearchBar under UINavigationBar so it is always visible to user. In that case I had to set contentInset with extr

Answer 1

Probably it was some sort of my mistake because of me messing with autolayouts and storyboard but I found an answer.

You have to take care of this little guy in View Controller's Attribute Inspector

It must be unchecked so the default contentInset wouldn't be set after any change. After that it is just adding one-liner to viewDidLoad:

[self.tableView setContentInset:UIEdgeInsetsMake(108, 0, 0, 0)]; // 108 is only example

iOS 11, Xcode 9 update

Looks like the previous solution is no longer a correct one if it comes to iOS 11 and Xcode 9. automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets has been deprecated and right now to achieve similar effect you have to go to Size Inspector where you can find this:
Also, you can achieve the same in code:

if #available(iOS 11.0, *) {
    scrollView.contentInsetAdjustmentBehavior = .never
} else {
    automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets = false
}
