I have UITextView, which is left aligned.
When last word does not fit on current line it goes to next line leaving spaces on end of line.
which does not give good look and feel.
So, what I want that if words of particular line feels the spaces left at end.
i.e. Spaces between two words can dynamically varies.
Here I am giving example of Scenario:
The width of text view,never put off until (here tomorrow does not fit,so it goes to next line leaving spaces).
Tomorrow what you can avoid all together.
So, problem is it does look good.
What I want is:
The width of text view never put off, until (varying spaces shown by)
tomorrow -what -you -can
avoid --all -- together.
Thanks in Advance.
There is no setting for justified aligment for text you only have center, left and right. If you want justified aligment where every line has the same amount of characters or something like that you can format the text entered to have carriage returns after x amount of characters or words, or something like that.

For a UILabel of certain width, with certain font and font size, i want to calculate amount of characters that would make 7 lines worth of text inside it + ... (three dots showing continuation). Is there a fancier way to achieve this? Currently what i'm trying is counting up to X amount of characters or 7 new line characters, which ever comes first and i cut on the text right there.
More Detail:
Trying to make an expandable row Cell which contains the UILabel, i'm achieving this with auto layout... So to control the cell expansion, i change the text to be full text or a substring of that, with a button below which toggles between the string vs substring. All of that is working. The problem i'm getting is my method of finding the substring isnt very neat. Its not consistent on how it handles text of different combination of characters or newlines. I get variations of how it looks and sometimes it just ends with three dots on a new line rather than finishing on the 7th line.
Even using auto layout you can still use the lines property of UILabel to limit the number of lines displayed by the label.
So set it 7 and you'll get 7 or less rows. Just assign the complete text.
I have a UILabel that is supposed to be two lines long. The text is localized into French and English.
I'm setting the attributedText property of the label. The text is constructed from three appended strings, say textFragment1, textFragment2 and textFragment3. The middle string is actually an image created with an NSTextAttachment.
I want to make sure that textFragment2 and textFragment3 are on the same line. The first string may or may not wrap depending on how long it is. The problem is that my French text is currently fairly short, so the line is wrapping after textFragment2.
I have fixed this temporarily by adding a line break symbol in the localized French text for textFragment1. I don't really love this solution though. I was wondering if there is a way to treat textFragment2 and textFragment3 so that they will always be together on the same line.
You could use a non-breaking space (\u00a0) to join textFragment2 and textFragment3. This character looks just like a normal space—i.e. it results in the same amount of whitespace—but line breaking will not take place on either side of it.
You could also use a zero-width space (\u2060). Using this character will not result in any whitespace, but it will still prevent line breaking on either side. This is what you want if you don’t want any space between textFragment2 and textFragment3 but you still want to prevent line breaking there. (It’s also useful if you have a word with a hyphen in the middle of it but you want to prevent the line from being broken after the hyphen.)
You can read more about these kinds of characters on Wikipedia.
Is there a property that will apply the proper character spacing to have all the text on each line in an NSAttributedString butt up against the bounds like in a book, (including the final line which I know isn't done in books)? I know kerning can be adjusted, but that won't dynamically adjust on a per line basis. Any help would be appreciated. Also NSTextAlignmentJustified and NSTextAlignmentNatural get close, but won't apply the effect to the last line of text.
The only option is to use NSTextAlignmentJustified. Last line is never justified, because NSTextAlignmentJustified refers to Left Justification mode, as it is the standard case.
For more information you can take a look at Typographic Alignment on wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typographic_alignment
I have a view that has an image, and to the left it is a long block of text that may take up multiple lines. In English, the first line might be full, and on the second line it may only take up half of the left side of the screen. When using Arabic, should the text be aligned towards the right side, where the first line is full, but the second line takes up half of the line and is aligned with the right?
I am using Auto Layout. Is there something, like the hugging settings, that I want to adjust?
Latex seems to fill in white space between the paragraphs by default, to get every page to end at approx the same height (at least with the book and scrreprt class). This is all fine, but I have a couple of pages with only two paragraphs. Latex insists on putting in 2cm of white space between them, which looks bad. I know that I can use \raggedrift for the whole document, but I kind of like the white fill except for the pages with only two paragraphs. I have also tried to adjust manually with \vspace{-1cm}, but it doesn't seem to work.
Is there a way to set a maximum value to the height of white fill between paragraphs?
If your mostly-empty pages are because the following content starts on a new page (at the end of a chapter, for example), then the easiest way to fix it is probably to insert a vertical fill after your last paragraph. The vertical fill should expand to occupy the extra space, keeping the inter-paragraph fill small.
You can change the vertical space applied to every paragraph by setting the value of \parskip.
The solution is very simple. At the end of the last paragraph of the page, add '\vfill'. This will fill up the rest of the page, making the two paragraphs on it move as close to each other as they would normally.
I just tested it myself and it works.
