How to resize UIlabel inside UIView proportionally ?

Question

Hi,

I have a UILabel inside a UIView and I want the label to be resized proportionally as the UIView is resize. I was able to do so with a UIImageView but the label stays as big as I placed it in IB.

I have set the view contentMode to UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit thinking that anything inside the UIView would be "aspect fit" but I had to set the same mode to the UIImageView (which works fine) and I can't set that mode to the UILabel.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

set setAutoresizingMask of label

Answer 2

It appears CGAffineTransform is the answer.

myView.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeScale(0.5, 0.5);

This would resize the view and everything that is inside dividing the view width and height by 2.
