resize title in uitableviewcellstyledefault - iphone

Question

i've been trying around for a while now and cant seem to find a solution. i am using a UITableViewCellStyleDefault cellstyle in my tableview, and am trying to get the font to resize when the text gets too long.
cell creation
static NSString *CellIdentifier = #"thisMonthCell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc]initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleGray;
[cell.textLabel setTextColor:[UIColor darkGrayColor]];
[cell.textLabel setAdjustsFontSizeToFitWidth:YES];
[cell.textLabel setMinimumFontSize:14];
UILabel *valueLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(190, 10, 100, 20)];
[valueLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
valueLabel.tag = 1001;
[valueLabel setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentRight];
[cell addSubview:valueLabel];
}
Expense *expense = [[self.dataHandler monthExpenses]objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
UILabel *value = (UILabel*)[cell viewWithTag:1001];
[cell.textLabel setText:[expense name]];
if ([[expense value]doubleValue] > 0) {
[value setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"+%.2f",[[expense value]doubleValue]]];
[value setTextColor:[self greenColor]];
}
else{
[value setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.2f",[[expense value]doubleValue]]];
[value setTextColor:[self redColor]];
}
return cell;
but somehow the textLabel wont resize if the text is too long.
here is a screenshot demonstrating the problem:
any ideas?
UPDATE i managed to achieve my goal by removing the standardLabel and adding a custom one,.. weird that it would not work with the standard one.

Answer 1

Try this cell.textLabel.numberOfLines = 0; cell.textLabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap

Answer 2

Use following two line of code also when you are creating value label.
valueLabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap;
valueLabel.numberOfLines = 0;
EDITED-
To change the height of cell -
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
NSString *cellText = #"oooooooooooooooooooo"; //Text that you are using
UIFont *cellFont = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:16.0]; //Whatever font you are using.
CGSize constraintSize = CGSizeMake(280.0f, MAXFLOAT);
CGSize labelSize = [cellText sizeWithFont:cellFont constrainedToSize:constraintSize lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
return labelSize.height + 25.0; //25.0 is offset, you can change as per need
}
