How to change cell height dynamically in UITableView static cell

Question

I am using UITableViewController instead detailView to show one entity details. I populated one row of data from PFQuery in my viewDidLoad method.

Answer 1

If you are using autolayout. Add top, left and right constrain in to your label.

Then in heightForRowAtIndexPath create your cell

static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"DetailsDesecriptionCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];

Set values to label and calculate size of the label after setting the value

    [cell layoutIfNeeded];
    return cell.label.frame.origin.y+cell.label.frame.size.height;

This will give you the exact hight of the label and your cell height will be same

-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
static NSString *simpleTableIdentifier = @"DetailsDesecriptionCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:simpleTableIdentifier];
            cell.titleLabel.text=@"YOUR TEXT";
            [cell layoutIfNeeded];
            return cell.titleLabel.frame.origin.y+cell.titleLabel.frame.size.height;
}
