Eliminate extra separators below UITableView

I would like to extend wkw answer:

Simply adding only footer with height 0 will do the trick. (tested on sdk 4.2, 4.4.1)

- (void) addFooter
{
    UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];

    [self.myTableView setTableFooterView:v];
}

or even simpler - where you set up your tableview, add this line:

//change height value if extra space is needed at the bottom.
[_tableView setTableFooterView:[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,0,0)]];

or even simplier - to simply remove any separators:

[_tableView setTableFooterView:[UIView new]];

Thanks to wkw again :)

You may find lots of answers to this question. Most of them around manipulation with UITableView's tableFooterView attribute and this is proper way to hide empty rows. For the conveniency I've created simple extension which allows to turn on/off empty rows from Interface Builder. You can check it out from this gist file. I hope it could save a little of your time.

extension UITableView {

  @IBInspectable
  var isEmptyRowsHidden: Bool {
        get {
          return tableFooterView != nil
        }
        set {
          if newValue {
              tableFooterView = UIView(frame: .zero)
          } else {
              tableFooterView = nil
          }
       }
    }
}

Usage:

tableView.isEmptyRowsHidden = true

uitableview extra separator line hide extra separators lines hide in swift 3.0

 self.tbltableView.tableFooterView = UIView(frame: .zero)

I was using a table view to show a fixed number of fixed height rows, so I simply resized it and made it non-scrollable.

If you have only one section, then the quickest and easiest way is to just set the Table View Style from "Plain" to "Grouped". (see image)

If you have more sections, you might need to set the header height to zero (depending on your/your customer's/your project manager's taste)

If you have more sections, and don't want to mess with the headers (even if it is just one line in the simplest case), then you need to set a UIView as a footer, as it was explained in the previous answers)

Try with this

for Objective C

- (void)viewDidLoad 
 {
  [super viewDidLoad];
  // This will remove extra separators from tableview
  self.yourTableView.tableFooterView = [UIView new];
}

for Swift

override func viewDidLoad() {
 super.viewDidLoad()
 self.yourTableView.tableFooterView = UIView()
}

I have added this small tableview extension that helps throughout

extension UITableView {
     func removeExtraCells() {
         tableFooterView = UIView(frame: .zero)
     }
}

In Swift (I'm using 4.0), you can accomplish this by creating a custom UITableViewCell class, and overriding the setSelected method. Then the separator insets all to 0. (my main class with the table view has a clear background) color.

override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
    super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)

    // eliminate extra separators below UITableView
    self.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 0, right: 0)
}

You can remove separator of empty rows by just adding minor height of footer

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForFooterInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
    return 0.01
}
