Question

I have searched around for any tip for my problem. But I cannot find a solution for this.

I have made a subclass of UITableviewCell (FeedCell). With one image and t

Answer 1

Try putting the code that sets number of lines, linebreakmode, and font OUTSIDE of those curly braces

I know this is an old post, but it came up when I was searching.

I got an example like this by following http://www.raywenderlich.com/73602/dynamic-table-view-cell-height-auto-layout.

I think for iOS8 the following is required:

• Setting the lines to 0
• Setting the word wrap
• Setting the label size to be >= 20
• Making sure there are enough constraints to determine the cell height (height of title and vertical spacing)

Answer 3

try

[tweetCell.tweetText  sizeToFit]

Answer 4

Firstly, if you want to show 2 line of text (minimum 1 and maximum 2), the numberOfLines must be set to 2. Setting it to 0 means no limit.

Secondly, setting just the number of lines is not enough. The label width HAS to be specified. Either use sizeToFit, or set a constant value.

Answer 5

For mutiline use the following:

tweetCell.tweetText.numberOfLines = 0;
[tweetCell.tweetText sizeToFit];

for testing purpose set the height of row as 46.0f in the following method:

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{

I could not get the height issue fixed but this did give me a UILabel with multiple lines
