That's not the issue I'm having. Let's say, for example, that label3 contains "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; the line height for the font 10; and when the label is laid out the label height is 25. This results in a label that looks like this:
+——————————+ |abcdefghij| |klmnopqrst| |(blank) | +——————————+ The first two lines are visible, but the third line is not drawn because the label is not tall enough to completely draw the last line. My question, below, was trying to determine how I could adjust the label height so that it's an even multiple of the font's line height, so in this case the label height would be adjusted to 20 (2 x 10) and the text would be drawn like this: +——————————+ |abcdefghij| |klmnopqrs…| +——————————+ On Sep 9, 2014, at 5:45 PM, Cosmo <dennisbi...@gmail.com> wrote: > In my experience, setting a label's numberOfLines property to 1 and its > lineBrakeMode property to NSLineBreakByTruncatingTail is all it takes to get > text to truncate.
