UILabel Multiple Line in iOS6 - iphone

Question

I have to show multiple line in UILabel (If text is large). Below is my code. I am using separate properties for different iOS versions. Please help me out..
labelLocation.numberOfLines=2;
labelLocation.font=[UIFont systemFontOfSize:25];
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice]systemVersion]floatValue]>=6) {
labelLocation.lineBreakMode=NSLineBreakByTruncatingTail;
labelLocation.minimumScaleFactor=10.0/[UIFont labelFontSize];
}else{
labelLocation.lineBreakMode=UILineBreakModeTailTruncation;
labelLocation.minimumFontSize=10;
}
labelLocation.text=#"Can we make UILabeltext in 2 lines if name is large";

Answer 1

these two line together works
labelLocation.numberOfLines=0;
labelLocation.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;

Answer 2

you can set
yourlabelname.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
yourlabelname.numberOfLines = give how many lines you want for your label(e.g.2,3,etc...)
and check if your outlet is set properly.

Answer 3

Try this labelLocation.numberOfLines=0;

Answer 4

I suppose, that your label has to small height. Two lines in systemFontOfSize 25 need height about 60.
If label is to small, system doesn't wrap line.

Answer 5

change ur code to this
labelLocation.numberOfLines=0;
labelLocation.font=[UIFont systemFontOfSize:40];
labelLocation.lineBreakMode=NSLineBreakModeWordWrap;
labelLocation.text=#"Can we make UILabeltext in 2 lines if name is large";

I would personally recommend you to calculate the height required to show the text and then show it onto the label...never hard code text display components such as UITextView and UILable.
NSString *str = #"This is to test the lable for the auto increment of height. This is only a test. The real data is something different.";
`UIFont * myFont = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:12];//specify your font details here
//then calculate the required height for the above text.
CGSize lableSiZE = [str sizeWithFont:myFont constrainedToSize:CGSizeMake(240, CGFLOAT_MAX) lineBreakMode:NSLineBreakByWordWrapping];
//initialize your label based on the height you got from the above..you can put whatever width you prefer...
UILabel *myLable = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10, 10, lableSiZE.width, lableSiZE.height)];
myLable.text = str;
myLable.numberOfLines=0;
myLable.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:12];
//myLable.backgroundColor=[UIColor redColor];
myLable.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
