iOS Custom table cells

[r00li]

I have created a custom table cell in interface builder that I am using. I have two problems with it.

The first one - I am using grouped table View and the corners of the cell are not rounded.

Second in that table cell I have a label on the bottom. I want to resize the whole cell and the label if there is too much text to fit. Text is loaded from an NSArray. But I don't know how the resize the cell and the label so that the text can fit.

This is how the cell looks like:
----------------------
|.........| some text
|image|
|.........| other text

resizable text
-----------------------

To resize the cell, look into the UITableViewDelegate method tableView:heightForRowAtIndexPath:.

I know how resize the cell. Problem is with resizing the label and then resizing the cell. I must resize the label to fit the text before I can resize the cell.

Yust found a simple method on the internet and simplified it a lot.

		CGFloat size = 15; //Font size
		
		//Calculate the expected size based on the font and linebreak mode of the label
		CGFloat maxWidth = [UIScreen mainScreen].bounds.size.width - 50;
		CGFloat maxHeight = 9999;
		CGSize maximumLabelSize = CGSizeMake(maxWidth,maxHeight);
		CGSize expectedLabelSize = [[detajli objectAtIndex:3] sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:size] constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap]; 
			
		return expectedLabelSize.height + 150;
//[detajli objectAtIndex:3] is a NSString

Now the remaining problem are the section corners. For some reason they are not rounded. They are flat and it looks bad.

If you inset the views that are at the left and right edges of the cell several pixels you should see the rounded corners. If that doesn't work show a screenshot.

I know how resize the cell.

Sorry, I wasn't able to detect that based on your first post.

Great that worked!

I should probably improve my writing style!
