I have a view with a UILabel and a UITableView. I'm using this code to get a string from a database: -(void)getOneQuestion:(int)flashcardId categoryID:(int)categoryId { flashCardText=[[NSString alloc] init]; flashCardAnswer=[[NSString alloc] init]; NSString *martialStr=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", flashcardId]; ...
Hi folks, I've used following function in some of my projects, but recently I've created a small example which suggest that it's not reliable (at least in some situations): [NSString sizeWithFont:font constrainedToSize:size] [NSString sizeWithFont:font constrainedToSize:size lineBreakMode:lineBreak] I created a custom UITableViewCel...
I want to remove a UILabel from the UIView dynamically. There are some branching and looping, and in the end when I remove it by 'removeFromSuperview' sdk crashes as it doesn't exist anymore, in some cases. [lbl_timer removeFromSuperview]; So what i wanted is simply how to know if an object exists? thanks ...
I'd like to override UILabel's setText method but I'm not sure that A) it's possible and B) if maybe there's a better way to achieve what I'm trying to accomplish.

Whenever an & is present on the text, getting the height seems to be off all the time. Both functions return less than the actual height: CGSize labelSize = [nameLabel.text sizeWithFont:nameLabel.font constrainedToSize: CGSizeMake( actualWidth, MAXFLOAT ) lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap]; CGRect textSize = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 32...
I have found some posts which are similar to my issue but not quite the same. In my app the user can navigate between several uitableviews to drill down to the desired result. When a user goes forward, then backward, then forward, etc it is noticeable that the rows are being redrawn/re-written and the text gets bolder and bolder. I ...

So to accomodate, I want to move down the detailTextLabel so that the wrapped text isn't covered by the text in the detailTextLabel. I am attempting the following...

The visual effect will be alternating colors between successive letters. What are the controls available to me to exactl...
See following code carefully. Because it works perfectly. Try to add in your application. it will work - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; // title label - tip UILabel *tmp=[[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(50, 50, 200, 200)]; tmp.textColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:(14.0/255.0) green:(105.0/255) blue:(128.0/255) alpha:1.0];...

Really long. I've ben futzing in IB and can't figure out the correct magic handshake to allow a UILabel to balloon to a really large size. Does an...
