How to add a background image to a table view

[kjmcneish]

To add a background image to a table view, you create an image view and add it to the table view's backGroundView property.

For example:

Code: [Select]

let imageView = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: "StarrySky"))
imageView.frame = self.tableView.frame
self.tableView.backgroundView = imageView
All the best!

How about an image above, or at the top of, a tableview that does not scroll up with the tableview.
An image view can be placed above a tableview but it scrolls up and out of sight.

The Apple documentation says how to use a header for sections of a tableview, and it says that a header can be used at the top of a tableview.
How do you put an image in the main header at the top that will not scroll up?

I want the image to stay at the top of the screen when the table is scrolled up.

I have found a way to do it using Objective-C but I want to use Swift.

Thanks
