Question: I am trying to add a Fixed transparent header in a `UITableView` similar to the one on the attached image (LHR-SYD / 372 Results). Is this a "built in" component in xcode/ios or how is it done ?

Answer: 
```
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section
{

  UIView *transparentView=[[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,320,10)];
  transparentView.backGroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
  return transparentView;

}

```
Yes, that is built in. The attached screenshot is of a `UITableView` that uses sections. 

You can also customise the view of a section's header. Refer to `[tableView:viewForHeaderInSection:]`(<https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uitableviewdelegate/1614901-tableview>). However, what you see is the default view so you only have to implement sections and `titleForHeaderInSection`.
