UINavigationItem titleView position

Question

I\'m using UINavigationItem\'s titleView property to set a custom UILabel with my desired font size/color. Here\'s my code:

self.headerLabel = [[UILabel alloc] i         


        

Answer 1

Just calculate exact frame size needed and align to left:

UIFont* font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Bitsumishi" size:20];
CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(296,9999);
CGSize expectedLabelSize = [title sizeWithFont:font constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeCharacterWrap]; 
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, expectedLabelSize.width, expectedLabelSize.height);
UILabel *label = [[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:frame] autorelease];
label.font = font;
label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
label.text = title;
self.titleView = label;
