Setting custom UITableViewCells height

Your UITableViewDelegate should implement tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath:

Objective-C

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    return [indexPath row] * 20;
}

Swift 5

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    return indexPath.row * 20
}

You will probably want to use NSString‘s sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode: method to calculate your row height rather than just performing some silly math on the indexPath 🙂
