I have this strange issue, and im dealing with it for more than 8 hours now.. Depending on situation i have to calculate UILabels size dynamically,
e.g
You can write like
UILabel *reviews = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(14, 13,270,30)];//Set frame
reviews.numberOfLines=0;
reviews.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
reviews.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial Rounded MT Bold" size:12];
reviews.textColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:0.0/255.0 green:0.0/255.0 blue:0.0/255.0 alpha:0.8];
reviews.backgroundColor=[UIColor clearColor];
You can calculate number of lines like that
CGSize maxlblSize = CGSizeMake(270,9999);
CGSize totalSize = [reviews.text sizeWithFont:reviews.font
constrainedToSize:maxlblSize lineBreakMode:reviews.lineBreakMode];
CGRect newFrame =reviews.frame;
newFrame.size.height = totalSize.height;
reviews.frame = newFrame;
CGFloat reviewlblheight = totalSize.height;
int lines=reviewlblheight/12;//12 is the font size of label
UILabel *lbl=[[UILabel alloc]init];
lbl.frame=CGRectMake(140,220 , 100, 25);//set frame as your requirement
lbl.font=[UIFont fontWithName:@"Arial" size:20];
[lbl setAutoresizingMask:UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill];
[lbl setLineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeClip];
lbl.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth=YES;//This is main for shrinking font
lbl.text=@"HelloHelloHello";
Hope this will help you :-) waiting for your reply
