Measuring the pixel width of a string

Question

I need to measure the pixel width of a string in Cocoa Touch. Can anyone point me to a link that explains how to do this?

Answer 1

The above solution is now deprecated. Check this for iOS 7+

 sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode 

is deprecated now. Use below code snippet,

UIFont *font=[UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:16.f];

NSString *name = @"APPLE";

CGSize size = [name sizeWithAttributes:@{NSFontAttributeName:font}];
