UISearchDisplayController to active state without the dimmed tableView

I am implementing a UISearchDisplayController. As the controller becomes active I load up the tableView with previous search terms, this is done so the user can easily tap the searchField, set the view in the search state - But if one of the users last 4-5 search terms is the one they are looking for they can just select it from the tableView.

The problem is that until anything is entere开发者_如何学God into the searchField then tableView remains "dimmed".

I have not been able so get around this, could someone please help figure it out. I have found no mention of the dimming in the UISearchDisplayController Class documentation or in the delegate documentation.

Thanks in advance.

Starting from iOS8 you can use the dimsBackgroundDuringPresentation Property
