Answer 1

extension UILabel {

public func resizeIfNeeded() -> CGFloat? {
    guard let text = text, !text.isEmpty else { return nil }

    if isTruncated() {
        numberOfLines = 0
        sizeToFit()
        return frame.height
    }
    return nil
}

func isTruncated() -> Bool {
    guard let text = text, !text.isEmpty else { return false }

    let size: CGSize = text.size(withAttributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.font: font])
    return size.width > self.bounds.size.width
    }
}

You can calculate the width of the string and see if the width is greater than label width.
