Question

I have this code and it gives the result of the screenshot below. It’s in the tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: method. I don’t know why the text above the bars isn’t showing. Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

cell.textLabel.text = @"";
    cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
    cell.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
    cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCellSelectionStyleNone;
    UILabel * label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame: cell.textLabel.frame];
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.1f%% (%i)",([[options_votes objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]] intValue] * 100.0 / total_votes),[[options_votes objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]] intValue]];
    NSLog(@"%@",[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.1f%% (%i)",([[options_votes objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]] intValue] * 100.0 / total_votes),[[options_votes objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]] intValue]]);
    label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentRight;
    [cell.contentView addSubview:label];
    [label release];
    label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame: cell.textLabel.frame];
    label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    label.text = [options objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]];
    NSLog(@"%@",[options objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]]);
    label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentLeft;
    [cell.contentView addSubview:label];
    [label release];
    UIImageView * image_view = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:nav_delegate->back_bar];
    image_view.frame = CGRectMake(10, 44, 280, 10);
    [cell.contentView addSubview:image_view];
    [image_view release];
    image_view = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:nav_delegate->blue_bar];
    image_view.frame = CGRectMake(10, 44, 5 + [[options_votes objectAtIndex: [indexPath row]] intValue] * 275.0/total_votes, 10);
    [cell.contentView addSubview:image_view];
    [image_view release];

Just a stab in the dark, but because you did cell.textLabel.text = @"";, it might have shrank the frame of the textLabel there to a width of 0. Try creating your labels based off of a frame that you know to be of a correct visible size.
