UILabel text truncation vs. line breaks in text - ios

Question

I have a UILabel that is put as titleView in the navigation bar. I want it to have 2 lines, where the first line can be truncated and the second is center aligned.
In code it looks more less like this:
let label = UILabel()
let text = NSAttributedString(string: "Long long long text\nsecond line")
label.attributedText = text
label.textAlignment = .Center
label.numberOfLines = 0
label.lineBreakMode = .ByTruncatingTail
label.sizeToFit()
self.navigationItem.titleView = label
The effect in case of the first line text is not exceeding available
space is like this:
It's pretty good, but when the first line text is longer than:
let text = NSAttributedString(string: "Very very very very very long text\nsecond line")
I want to achieve like below.
How it can be done? I experimented with numberOfLines and lineBreakMode but it's not worked.

Answer 1

change your line breakmode to ByTruncatingMiddle instead of ByTruncatingTail. Something like below,
label.lineBreakMode = .ByTruncatingMiddle
Hope this will help :)

Answer 2

Navigation Tittle with sub-Tittle (Multiline Navigation Tittle)
Use NSMutableAttributedString with UITextView instead of UILabel
(because, if tittle is large then UILabel lineBreakMode with .byTruncatingTail is not working for first line in UILabel)
func multilineNavigation(title:String,subTitle:String) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let titleAttributedStr = NSMutableAttributedString(string: title, attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.orange,NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont(name: "Helvetica Neue", size: 17.0) ?? UIFont()])
let subTitleAttributedStr = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "\n\(subTitle)", attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: UIColor.green,NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont(name: "Helvetica Neue", size: 12.0) ?? UIFont()])
titleAttributedStr.append(subTitleAttributedStr)
let paragraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
paragraphStyle.lineSpacing = 1
paragraphStyle.lineBreakMode = .byTruncatingTail
titleAttributedStr.addAttribute(.paragraphStyle, value:paragraphStyle, range:NSMakeRange(0, titleAttributedStr.length))
let textView = UITextView()
textView.attributedText = titleAttributedStr
textView.backgroundColor = .clear
textView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false
textView.textContainerInset = .zero
textView.textAlignment = .center
textView.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: textView.intrinsicContentSize.width, height: 44)
self.navigationItem.titleView = textView
}
}
