Labels do not fit into TableView - ios

Question

I'm trying to add labels (right and left side) on the tableView. However, label texts are cut, I wonder how to solve. I am adding my source code as well as attached the screen-capture.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"placeholder.png"];
cell.textLabel.text = [[dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"name"];
cell.detailTextLabel.text= [NSString stringWithFormat:#"$ %#", [[dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:#"price"]];
return cell;
}
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return 70.0;
}

Answer 1

you can do this in two ways
one you need to change the textalignment to right, for e.g
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentRight;
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentRight;
or change your UITableViewCell style as Right Detail in attribute inspector in your XCode
ir change your UITableViewCellStyleDefault to UITableViewCellStyleValue1 or UITableViewCellStyleValue2
you can get the style property in UITableViewCell class
and call like
if (cell == nil)
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue2 reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"placeholder.png"];
cell.textLabel.text = [dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.text= #"Yesterday";
for more information you can get the sample here else create the Custom cell and set the label in right alignment based on your needs

Answer 2

Change the following line of code:
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
Try this:
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"placeholder.png"];
cell.textLabel.text = [dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.detailTextLabel.text= #"Yesterday";
return cell;
}
Hope it helps !

You can wrap your label by using NSLineBreakByCharWrapping
Go through this code here myLabelWidth is ur label width and myLabelHeight is your label height
CGSize size = [textLabel.text sizeWithAttributes:
#{NSFontAttributeName:
[UIFont systemFontOfSize:17.0f]}];
int sizeofL=size.width;
if(sizeofL>(mylabelWidth))
{
[textLabel setMinimumFontSize:5.0];
[textLabel setNumberOfLines:0];
int hgtofL=size.height;
if(hgtofL>mylabelHieght)
{
if(height<1024)
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:12];
else
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14];
}
else
{
if(height<1024)
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:16];
else
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18];
}
textLabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByCharWrapping;
[textLabel sizeToFit];
}
else
{
if(height<1024)
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:16];
else
textLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18];
}
cell.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 10000, 0, 0);
[cell.contentView addSubview:textLabel];
[cell setEditing:NO];
}

It should be like this
- (UITableViewCell )tableView:(UITableView )tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *cellIdentifier = #"cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle: UITableViewCellStyleValue1 reuseIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
}
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"placeholder.png"];
cell.imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
cell.textLabel.text = [dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentLeft;
cell.textLabel.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:12];
cell.textLabel.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
cell.detailTextLabel.text= #"Yesterday";
cell.detailTextLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentRight;
cell.detailTextLabel.font=[UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial" size:12];//If you want decrease font size here
cell.detailTextLabel.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = YES;
return cell;
}
