UIButton - text truncated

Question

I\'ve created a wide UIButton with Interface Builder (Xcode 4), added in a dummy 5 character title (e.g. Click) and then changed the title text programmatically later.

You need to use the UIButton method setTitle:forState:

[self.myButton setTitle:@"Correct New Title" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

as this will correctly update the size and position of the buttons label. Where as just setting the title with self.myButton.titleLabel.text = @"Wrong New Title"; will not.
