In UILabel how to multiline text with custom width - objective-c

Question

My UILabel is in UITableViewCell and Here is my code
lblgoal = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(60,10, 250, 20)];
CGSize maximumLabelSize1 = CGSizeMake(230,9999);
lblgoal.numberOfLines = 0;
lblgoal.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = NO;
CGSize expectedLabelSize = [sg.subgoal_name sizeWithFont:lblgoal.font
constrainedToSize:maximumLabelSize
lineBreakMode:lblsubgoal1.lineBreakMode];
CGRect newFrame = lblgoal.frame;
newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
lblgoal.frame = newFrame;
But this only works if i put the width of UILabel to 200, if i put more than 200 width, then it all comes in one line with dotted at the end. And, UITableView cell width is more than 500.

Answer 1

Actually, make sure to set the linebreakmode to UILineBreakModeWordWrap in both your sizeWithFont function and your lblgoal label as below:
lblgoal.numberOfLines = 0;
lblgoal.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap; //NSLineBreakByWordWrapping for iOS 6
EDIT: Try sizeToFit after you set the lineBreakMode.
[lblgoal sizeToFit];
Also make sure you do this inside the cellForRowAtIndexPath method.
You should also implement the following delegate method to make sure the height of your cell is also adjusted accordingly.
- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

Answer 2

You have a fixed Width when you are checking for the MaximumLabelSize.
CGSize maximumLabelSize1 = CGSizeMake(230,9999);
Instead Use
CGSize maximumLabelSize1 = CGSizeMake(MAXFLOAT, MAXFLOAT);
But this will give the Oppurtunity to extend width to any extend. Which is not going to
work for u.. So set the Maximum Width to 500.
CGSize maximumLabelSize1 = CGSizeMake(500, MAXFLOAT);
And set the Frame for the Label :
CGRect newFrame = lblgoal.frame;
newFrame.size.height = expectedLabelSize.height;
newFrame.size.width = expectedLabelSize.width;

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (!self.lastIndexPath)
{
self.lastIndexPath = indexPath;
}
if ([self.lastIndexPath row] != [indexPath row])
{
UITableViewCell *newCell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath: indexPath];
newCell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
UITableViewCell *oldCell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:self.lastIndexPath];
oldCell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
self.lastIndexPath = indexPath;
}
else {
UITableViewCell *newCell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath: indexPath];
newCell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
}
