Swift Version from iOS 6 and later

To center text in a UILabel in Swift (which is targeted for iOS 7+) you can do:
myUILabel.textAlignment = .Center
Or
myUILabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Center
N.B.: As per the UILabel class reference, as of iOS 6 this approach is now deprecated.
Simply use the textAlignment
property to see the required alignment using one of the UITextAlignment
values. (UITextAlignmentLeft
, UITextAlignmentCenter
or UITextAlignmentRight
.)
e.g.: [myUILabel setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentCenter];
See the UILabel Class Reference for more information.
