Default height for section header in UITableView

Question

I want to set the height of the first header in my UITableView. For the other headers I want them to remain the default height. What value/constant can I put in place of "someDefaultHeight" in the code below?

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    if (section == 0)
     return kFirstHeaderHeight;

    return someDefaultHeight;
}

Thanks

Answer 1

From checking the defaults in my app it looks like for a grouped table the default is a height of 10 and for a non-grouped table the default is a height of 22.

If you check the value of the property sectionHeaderHeight on your tableview that should tell you.

This should do the trick

• (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { if(indexPath.section == CUSTOM_SECTION) { return CUSTOM_VALUE; } return [tableView rowHeight]; }
