Autolayout - intrinsic size of UIButton does not include title insets

Question

If I have a UIButton arranged using autolayout, its size adjusts nicely to fit its content.

If I set an image as button.image, the instrinsic size again

Answer 1

Why not override the intrinsicContentSize method on UIView? For example:

- (CGSize) intrinsicContentSize
{
    CGSize s = [super intrinsicContentSize];

    return CGSizeMake(s.width + self.titleEdgeInsets.left + self.titleEdgeInsets.right,
                      s.height + self.titleEdgeInsets.top + self.titleEdgeInsets.bottom);
}

This should tell the autolayout system that it should increase the size of the button to allow for the insets and show the full text. I'm not at my own computer, so I haven't tested this.
