According to the documentation for UILabel the default contentMode is 'redraw'. I've been chasing an issue in my code where I set the center and bounds of one in layoutSubviews of the parent to keep it centered but it wasn't being, it was moving all over the place. I randomly found that calling setNeedsDisplay on the UILabel fixed the issue. Digging deeper I found that using setFrame: instead of setCenter: and setBounds: worked without the setNeedsDisplay. I don't really like using setFrame: if I can avoid it because it only works with unit matrix transforms.
Checking the documentation the default for a UILabel should be redraw, but I found that any UILabel dragged into IB actually has contentMode 'left' set, which is I think what stopped the setBounds doing the right thing and redrawing. 1) does that sound like an IB bug which needs reporting? 2) why does setFrame cause a redraw when setBounds/setCenter doesn't if the contentMode is set to 'left' either they all should, or they all shouldn't. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
