Set UILabel line spacing

Question

How can I modify the gap between lines (line spacing) in a multiline UILabel?

Answer 1

Starting in ios 6 you can set an attributed string in the UILabel:

NSString *labelText = @"some text"; 
NSMutableAttributedString *attributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:labelText];
NSMutableParagraphStyle *paragraphStyle = [[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init];
[paragraphStyle setLineSpacing:40];
[attributedString addAttribute:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName value:paragraphStyle range:NSMakeRange(0, [labelText length])];
cell.label.attributedText = attributedString ;
