How to shrink the spacing between Cell Header and Cell Text in UITableView

Question

Is it possible to shrink the spacing between a cell header and cell text? Looking at the example below I'd like the header to be closer to the top of the cell that contains the other text.

Sorry, I don't have high enough reputation to embed images.

Answer 1

I assume that you are using a standard cell style and textLabel. You could change the frame.origin of the label, or create a custom cell from a nib with the exact layout you prefer.

Answer 2

Just implement tableView:heightForHeaderInSection: in your controller and return your desired height.

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section {
    return 50.0f;
}
