Change the uitableview footer height in landscape mode

[franium]

Hi everyone,

I have a grouped UITableView with some sections (with an header title). I want to add a footer to the first section, so I use

- (NSString *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView titleForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section {

   switch (section) {
    case 0:
        return @"some lines of text...........bla bla bla bla bla etc etc");
        break;
    default:
        return nil;
        break;
    }
}

My problem is with the landscape mode. There is a quite big space between the footer and the header of the next section, so I change the footer height programatically in this way:

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForFooterInSection:(NSInteger)section{
	switch (section) {
		case 0:
			if (UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait([UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation)) {
				return 85.0;
			} else {
				return 75.0;
			}
			break;
		default:
			return 10;
			break;
	}
}

But how can I change the footer height in

(void)willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)orientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration

If I use

self.tableView.sectionFooterHeight = 85.0;

it changes the footer height of all sections.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Fran

heightForHeaderInSection should be called when you switch from portrait to landscape and viceversa.

So what you should do is just
UIDeviceOrientation orientation = [[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation];

and check orientation value to set the height.

Really not... so I reload the tableview in

(void)willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)orientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration

and in heightForHeaderInSection I check for the orientation and set the height properly. Now it works.
