Question

- (Unit*) init
{
    if (self = [super init])
    {
        location = CGPointMake(100.0, 100.0);

        self.text = @"Test Text";
        self.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
        self.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Georgia" size:40.0];

        self.bounds = CGRectMake(0,
                                 0,
                                 [self.text sizeWithFont:self.font].width,
                                 [self.text sizeWithFont:self.font].height);

    }

It works good for the sizing, but if I change the values for the first two parameters in CGRectMake, the UILabel doesn’t move to that position. What am I doing wrong?

Also, is there a way I could move the UILabel‘s (X,Y) a way in which I don’t have to make a new CGRectMake() every time?

You should use the CGRectMake on self.frame, not bounds if I remember correctly.
