I have tried with it on Swift 4.2, hopefully it work for you! @IBDesignable class PaddingLabel: UILabel { @IBInspectable var topInset: CGFloat = 5.0 @IBInspectable var bottomInset: CGFloat = 5.0 @IBInspectable var leftInset: CGFloat = 7.0 @IBInspectable var rightInset: CGFloat = 7.0 override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) { let insets = UIEdgeInsets(top: topInset, left: leftInset, … Read more
Please note that in most cases Matt’s solution works as expected. But if it doesn’t work for you, please, read further. To make your label automatically resize height you need to do following: Set layout constrains for label Set height constraint with low priority. It should be lower than ContentCompressionResistancePriority Set numberOfLines = 0 Set … Read more
I solved this by subclassing UILabel and overriding drawTextInRect: like this: – (void)drawTextInRect:(CGRect)rect { UIEdgeInsets insets = {0, 5, 0, 5}; [super drawTextInRect:UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets)]; } Swift 3.1: override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) { let insets = UIEdgeInsets.init(top: 0, left: 5, bottom: 0, right: 5) super.drawText(in: UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets)) } Swift 4.2.1: override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) … Read more
Use an extension on String Swift 3 extension String { func height(withConstrainedWidth width: CGFloat, font: UIFont) -> CGFloat { let constraintRect = CGSize(width: width, height: .greatestFiniteMagnitude) let boundingBox = self.boundingRect(with: constraintRect, options: .usesLineFragmentOrigin, attributes: [NSFontAttributeName: font], context: nil) return ceil(boundingBox.height) } func width(withConstrainedHeight height: CGFloat, font: UIFont) -> CGFloat { let constraintRect = CGSize(width: .greatestFiniteMagnitude, … Read more
Update In Swift we don’t have to deal with iOS5 old stuff besides syntax is shorter so everything becomes really simple: Swift 5 func attributedString(from string: String, nonBoldRange: NSRange?) -> NSAttributedString { let fontSize = UIFont.systemFontSize let attrs = [ NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: fontSize), NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.black ] let nonBoldAttribute = [ NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: fontSize), ] let … Read more
This answer has been updated for Swift 4.2. Quick Reference The general form for making and setting an attributed string is like this. You can find other common options below. // create attributed string let myString = “Swift Attributed String” let myAttribute = [ NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor: UIColor.blue ] let myAttrString = NSAttributedString(string: myString, attributes: myAttribute) // … Read more
sizeWithFont constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode: is the method to use. An example of how to use it is below: //Calculate the expected size based on the font and linebreak mode of your label // FLT_MAX here simply means no constraint in height CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(296, FLT_MAX); CGSize expectedLabelSize = [yourString sizeWithFont:yourLabel.font constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize lineBreakMode:yourLabel.lineBreakMode]; //adjust the label the … Read more
Create tap-able “links” in the NSAttributedString of a UILabel?
Vertically align text to top within a UILabel
My suggestion is to just set breakpoints and ensure that your code that sets the labels is actually setting the correct string values. If you are sure about that, then there must be something wrong with your IB files (clearColor text, maybe?). On another note, you have a horrendous amount of hardcoding in your view … Read more
