iOS 7 sizeWithAttributes: replacement for sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize
well you can try this :
NSDictionary *attributes = @{NSFontAttributeName: [UIFont fontWithName:@"HelveticaNeue" size:14]};
// NSString class method: boundingRectWithSize:options:attributes:context is
// available only on ios7.0 sdk.
CGRect rect = [textToMeasure boundingRectWithSize:CGSizeMake(width, CGFLOAT_MAX)
options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin
attributes:attributes
context:nil];
This is how I did it:
// Get a font to draw it in
UIFont *font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize: 28];
CGRect textRect;
NSDictionary *attributes = @{NSFontAttributeName: font};
// How big is this string when drawn in this font?
textRect.size = [text sizeWithAttributes:attributes];
// Draw the string
[text drawInRect:textRect withAttributes:attributes];
Swift 2.3:
let attributes = [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 14)]
let rect = NSString(string: textToMeasure).boundingRectWithSize(
CGSizeMake(width, CGFLOAT_MAX),
options: NSStringDrawingOptions.UsesLineFragmentOrigin,
attributes: attributes, context: nil)
Swift 4:
let attributes = [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 14)]
let rect = NSString(string: textToMeasure).boundingRect(
with: CGSize(width: width, height: CGFloat.greatestFiniteMagnitude),
options: NSStringDrawingOptions.usesLineFragmentOrigin,
attributes: attributes as [NSAttributedString.Key : Any], context: nil)
