I am having some trouble getting my application to properly resize the text of UILabels when the user does a swipe to delete or other type of delete. Currently, the delete button is covering up the text that is in the cell (if it is really long). I would like for them to operate like how SMS (move clipped text down a line) or iPod (delete button resizing text).
I am using a custom UITableViewCell I am working with two labels, UIImageView and a couple of subviews for backgroundView and selectedBackgroundView. I have been playing with the springs and struts of the labels in the cell and partially attained my desired effect however, the text has a weird, quick resizing bug where it becomes deformed and stretched out and then is returned proper size when the delete button is done animating.
As far as other things that I have tried, I have made sure that my text does not adjust-to-fit and I have made my minimum font size the font size that I set for the label. I have also tried over-riding layoutSubviews but that didn’t seem to have any effect at all.
If a screenshot (of the deforming label) or code would be helpful, I can post both but since nothing I have done is working, I figured they would be of little value.
fixed it by setting the “mode” of the label in the view panel to “left”
