Sebastian,
If you doing a UITableViewCell subclass, you'll have issues using the built-in
textLabel property if you want it to be positioned somewhere other than the
locations provided by the built-in styles.
Your best bet is to add your own UILabel to the subclass' contentView.
@interface MyTableViewCell : UITableViewCell {
UILabel *myOwnTextLabel;
}
@property (nonatomic, retain) UILabel *myOwnTextLabel;
@end
@implementation MyTableViewCell
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewCellStyle)style
reuseIdentifier:(NSString*)reuseIdentifier {
self = [super initWithStyle:style reuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier];
if (self) {
CGRect r = self.contentView.bounds;
r.origin.x = 30;
r.origin.y = 5;
r.size.width -= 50;
r.size.height -= 10;
myOwnTextLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:r];
[self.contentView addSubview: myOwnTextLabel];
// Add your own UILabel to the content view
// You'll ignore the built-in textLabel property and use your
own, myOwnTextLabel.
}
return self;
}
- (void) dealloc {
[myOwnTextLabel release]; myOwnTextLabel = nil;
[super dealloc];
}
- (void) setText: (NSString *)text {
myOwnTextLabel.text = text;
}
@end
