ios - UITableView not shown inside UIStackView

Question

I have a UIStackView where it can show a label, image, table view or nothing based on user selection. Here is my current hierarchy for the dynamic view:

• UIStackView_Parent
  • UILabel - some text, fixed view
  • UIStackView_Child - this is the container that can show multiple things or nothing
  • UIView - another fixed view

When I call UIStackView_Child.addArrangedSubview(...) with a label or image it works perfectly, but addArrangedSubview(tableView) does not show the table. I have tableView.scrollEnabled = false and set frame to fixed height based on number of cell and defined the table's cellHeight.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Another way to do this without explicitly setting the frame height and width is to embed your table view inside an empty view, pin the table view to the top, bottom, left and right and set a "greater than or equal to" constraint to the table view's height.
