iOS resize UISearchBar

[kikko088]

Hi at all I have a problem, I need to change uisearchbar frame, I try to di it in 2 way, the first time putting uisearchbar inside the tableview I can't change the frame with [uisearchbar appearance] or creating an IBOutlet property and changing the frame of this property.

The second way I use is to create programmatically an uisearchbar and uisearchcontroller I can resize searchbar but if I don't initsearchcontroller with this searchbar I can't search anything, but If I init earchcontroller with this searchbar it take the default frame size.

this is my code:

self.searchBar = [[UISearchBar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(56, 68, 200, 44)];
self.searchBar.delegate = self;

self.mySearchDisplayController = [[UISearchDisplayController alloc ]initWithSearchBar:self.searchBar contentsController:self];

self.mySearchDisplayController.delegate = self;
self.mySearchDisplayController.searchResultsDataSource = self;
self.mySearchDisplayController.searchResultsDelegate = self;

for (UIView *subview in self.searchBar.subviews) {
if ([subview isKindOfClass:NSClassFromString(@"UISearchBarBackground")]) {
[subview removeFromSuperview];
break;
}
if ([subview isKindOfClass:[UITextField class]]) {
// Do your text field customisation in here
[(UITextField *)subview setTextColor:[UIColor redColor]];
}
}

[self.searchBar setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];

[self.mainView addSubview:self.searchBar];

can you help me?

Have you tried changing the searchBar's frame after calling initWithSearchBar:contentsController:?

yes I try but nothing, I get something good playing with the frame on the delegate method but however is not the right way because the frame is adjust after a moment.
FOR NOW I find a solution on specific case adjusting the frame of table (not of single search bar)

...however is not the right way because the frame is adjust after a moment.

Well, you need to troubleshoot what is causing your frame to be readjusted without your "permission", as it were.
