Get rid of line above UITableView

Question

I have a UITableView (which happens to have a UISearchBar) and can't seem to figure out how to get rid of the white/gray border above it. I need to have seamless black between the UISearchBar and the black above it.

I have tried hiding the UISearchBar to see if that had anything to do with it, but the line still appeared.

Any ideas?

In my case it helped to set:

    searchBar.clipsToBounds = YES;

actually this is what solved for me. The searchbar comes with a line on top for no reason! – João Nunes Sep 11 '13 at 16:08
it does not to work with uitableviewcontroller. I had to use uiviewcontroller instead. – Sandeep Mar 27 '15 at 06:03

You have to customise the UISearchBar background to match according to your requirements.,take a look at this tutorial.

I have tried using an image as the background for the UISearchBar, but that did not work - It is really the top of the UITableView that has that line. I have also tried the following: [code] [self.searchBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent]; self.searchBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor]; for (id img in self.searchBar.subviews) { if ([img isKindOfClass:NSClassFromString(@"UISearchBarBackground")]) { [img removeFromSuperview]; } }[/code] – Tom Jan 09 '13 at 13:00

You should try this, by which you can set the color of cell borders and if you want to change the color of a particular cell's border put it in condition as: if (indexPath.row == yourcell):

tableView.separatorColor = [UIColor blackColor];

Also the above method you have to put in CellForRowAtIndexPath method of table view datasource.

Please notify if it works..

That did indeed change the separator color to black, however the line at the top of the tableview is still gray. – Tom Jan 09 '13 at 12:58

This had to do with the pullToRefresh view I was using (using SensibleTableView) - it had some code in drawRect to draw the line.
