iOS 9 Uitableview Separators Insets (Significant Left Margin)

iOS 9 UITableView separators insets (significant left margin)

Okay, I have found out the solution. The only thing required for that is to set on the presenting instance of UITableView that flag cellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth

myTableView.cellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth = NO;

I wanted to find some reference in the documentation but it looks like it is not ready yet, only mentioned on diff page.

As the flag was introduced in iOS 9 for the backward compatibility you should add a check before trying to set it:

if([myTableView respondsToSelector:@selector(setCellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth:)])
{
    myTableView.cellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth = NO;
}

For Swift 2.0 you can use #available to check iOS version.

if #available(iOS 9, *) {
    myTableView.cellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth = false
}

Moreover you need to compile it with Xcode 7 or above.

EDIT

Please keep in mind that this is the only required fix if your separators looked "fine" up to iOS 8, otherwise you need to change a bit more. You can find info how to do this already on SO.

UITableViewCell separator insets don't work when table.width is much greater than view.width

There are two ways in which you can solve this problem.

First one you can add a separator line view in cell content view.

 UIView* line = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, tableview.frame.size.width, 3)];      
 line.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

[cell.contentView addSubview:line];

The second one is apple provided one and pretty easy also just add this line of code where u declare your tableview

yourTableView.cellLayoutMarginsFollowReadableWidth = NO;

xcode 7 / iOS 9 / iPhone 6 sim: why extra padding to left of UITableView?

There is a small left-margin before each horizontal bar between the UITableViewCells in the UITableView. Looking at the prototype cell for a UITableViewCell in one of my storyboards, I believe this left-margin is baked into the cell by default. I do not know if it is adjustable.

UITableview separator not hiding for iOS9

Please set the separator style to None in layoutSubviews method.

When constraints-based layout is used the base implementation applies the constraints-based layout and setting separatorStyle to UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone in this method will hide the separator for you.
