How to center text in UILabel with different fonts

Question

enter image description here

I use four fonts in the picture.It seems that different font has different vertical alignment in UILabel.

But I want to center in vertical or align top the text with different fonts in UILabel.

The labels is in fixed size.And I should not to change it in my program.

Any one can help me?

Use textalignment property for UILabel to center align but to make the text top align you need to set edgeinset for UILabel. — Exploring, Jun 07 '13 at 06:50
There is no vertical alignment support in UILabel. There are some workarounds - see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1054558/vertically-align-text-within-a-uilabel. — maroux, Jun 07 '13 at 09:45

For text alignment you can set as:

label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;

For changing the font use this,

label.font = [UIFont fontWithName:YOUR_FONT size:SIZE];

yourLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"TrebuchetMS-Bold" size:18]; // to set font style

You can get a list of the available fonts here.

For setting italics and bold, you can go here.

yourLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter; // to set alignment to center

There is no direct or already-defined method to align text vertically, but you can find a cross-solution here.

Hope I helped.
