Answer 1

Objective-C:

UIView *cellScrollView = [[cell contentView] superview];
[cellScrollView setClipsToBounds:NO];

Swift:

let cellScrollView = cell.contentView.superview
cellScrollView?.clipsToBounds = false

Answer 2

The only way to access the new CellScrollView is by accessing the cell superview after it was created.

I added the following cellForRowAtIndexPath:

cell = [[UICustomTableViewCell alloc] init];
UIView *cellScrollView = cell.myLabel.superview;
[cellScrollView.layer setMasksToBounds: NO];

I think Apple should give us a way to access this new ScrollView without hacking.
