When I set up UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction for a UITableView in iOS 26 like this: let interaction = UIScrollEdgeElementContainerInteraction() interaction.scrollView = tableView interaction.edge = .top viewHeader.addInteraction(interaction) the section header remains displayed above the gradient glass effect, but the cells do not exhibit this issue. Visually, the cells appear beneath the glass layer, while the header appears above the glass layer—even though, in reality, both the header and the cells are positioned below the glass layer in the view hierarchy.
