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

Below is how I do.

// this will set height of the row
-(CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
   String *yourLongString = "Long text here";
   UILabel *mLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,320,30)];
                                                                   your size will change here
   mLabel.hidden = YES;
   mLabel.text = yourLongString;
   [mLabel sizeToFit];
           ^^^^^^^^ this is very important

   return mLabel.frame.size.height;
}

Now in cellForRowAtIndexPath adjust the height of actual label as per the height of the cell.

Let me know if you are not clear.
