Autoshrink on a UILabel with multiple lines

Question

Is it possible to use the autoshrink property in conjunction on multiple lines on a UILabel? for example, the large text size possible on 2 available lines.

Answer 1

Try this:

Either subclass UILabel or call adjustFontSize method after setting the text property on a label

override var text : String? { didSet { self.adjustFontSize() } }

func adjustFontSize()
{
    var lineCount = self.string.components(separatedBy: "\n").count - 1
    var textArray = self.string.components(separatedBy: " ")
    var wordsToCompare = 1
    while(textArray.count > 0)
    {
        let words = textArray.first(n: wordsToCompare).joined(separator: " ")
        let wordsWidth = words.widthForHeight(0, font: self.font)
        if(wordsWidth > self.frame.width)
        {
            textArray.removeFirst(wordsToCompare)
            lineCount += 1
            wordsToCompare = 1
        }
        else if(wordsToCompare > textArray.count)
        {
            break
        }
        else
        {
            wordsToCompare += 1
        }
    }
    self.numberOfLines = lineCount + 1
}
