ios - How to add subviews to a tableview cell dynamically -

i created custom tableview cell in ib. add scroll view subview of cell's contentview, , create iboutlet in tableview cell subclass, , make connection. problem is, want add subviews cell dynamically, when did in code, nothing happens. cell rendered successfully, scrollview has nothing show (no subviews on it).

- (uitableviewcell *)tableview:(uitableview *)tableview cellforrowatindexpath:(nsindexpath *)indexpath {     // deque cell     // create label depending on model object     // (this done code, not in ib. because label content-based)     // don't know how many labels in advance     [cell.scrollview addsubview: label];  // not working !!     ...     return cell; } 

but if add subviews in ib (which means subviews pre-defined), works.

is there ways add subviews cell dynamically ? or maybe put code in wrong place ?

try this

uilabel *label1 = [[uilabel alloc]initwithframe:cgrectmake(8, 8, 130, 30)]; label1.text = @"any text"; label1.textcolor = [uicolor redcolor]; label1.backgroundcolor = [uicolor greencolor]; [cell addsubview:label1];// first try adding cell 

if need add subview of cell.scrollview

nslog(@"scrollview %@",cell.scrollview);//it should not nil 

check scrollview content size , frame

for dynamic string you

nsstring *string = @"this text"; cgsize stringsize = [string sizewithfont:[uifont systemfontofsize:[uifont systemfontsize]]]; uilabel *label1 = [[uilabel alloc]initwithframe:cgrectmake(8, 8, stringsize.width+30/*you have adjust 30 u required*/, 30)]; label1.text = string; label1.textcolor = [uicolor redcolor]; label1.backgroundcolor = [uicolor greencolor]; cell.scrollview.contentsize = cgsizemake(label1.frame.size.width+30/*you have adjust 30 u required*/, label1.frame.size.height); [cell.scrollview addsubview:label1];
