How to add padding-left on a UILabel created programmatically?

Question

I know this is a noob question but ...I have these labels on a tableview, but the text is completely squished to the left. I want to add a bit of padding. How do I go about

Answer 1

I found a better way to do this:

-  (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section  {

    CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 25);
    UIView *customView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
    UILabel *sectionTitle = [[UILabel alloc] init];
    [customView addSubview:sectionTitle]; 
    customView.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];

    frame.origin.x = 10; //move the frame over..this adds the padding!
    frame.size.width = self.view.bounds.size.width - frame.origin.x;

    sectionTitle.frame = frame;
    sectionTitle.text = @"text";
    sectionTitle.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:17];
    sectionTitle.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    sectionTitle.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

    [sectionTitle release];

    tableView.allowsSelection = NO;

    return [customView autorelease];

}
