Creating a UIView that sticks to bottom of UITableView

Question

I have a grouped UITableView and I\'d like to add a UIButton to the very bottom of my UITableView. I\'m using Storyboard and a UITableViewControlle

Answer 1

I have achieved this with a TableViewController in swift 1.2 by doing the following (in case people come across this like I did while looking for swift solution).

Once you have your TableViewController on your storyboard drag a View onto the controller. Set it up as you desire and right-click(or ctrl-click) and drag into the source to create an IBOutlet. Then click and drag the view to the top bar . Change to the source for the TableViewController and you will need to derive UIScrollViewDelegate. You will need to set tableView.delegate = self and then you can do the following

self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0, 0.0, floatingView.frame.height, 0.0)
        self.tableView.scrollIndicatorInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0, 0.0, floatingView.frame.height, 0.0)

        floatingView.frame.origin.y = self.tableView.bounds.origin.y + self.tableView.frame.height - floatingView.frame.height
        floatingView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizing.FlexibleTopMargin
        self.view.addSubview(floatingView)

And then

override func scrollViewDidScroll(scrollView: UIScrollView) {

        floatingView.frame = CGRectMake(self.floatingView.frame.origin.x, self.tableView.bounds.origin.y + self.tableView.frame.height - floatingView.frame.height, self.floatingView.frame.size.width, self.floatingView.frame.size.height)
    }
