UIButton title alignment and multiline support

Here's the code to do the UIButton alignment in code too: -

[myButton setContentHorizontalAlignment:UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentLeft];

To set the alignment of a UIButton, look in the Attributes Inspector in Interface Builder for the button. There's a section called Alignment. Set it to left. Or right, or whatever you want.

To do it in code, use the contentHorizontalAlignment property of UIControl. You can set it to any of these properties:

UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentCenter
UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentLeft
UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentRight
UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentFill

[myButton setContentHorizontalAlignment:UIControlContentHorizontalAlignmentRight];

None of these options look particularly good (as you can see above), and you might have might have more luck using the contentEdgeInsets property of UIButton to reposition the content.

To set a multiline title on a UIButton, check this forum post which describes changing the button label.

Or you can use this code to quickly make a 2 line button:

myButton.titleLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
myButton.titleLabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeCharacterWrap;
[myButton setTitle:@"Siegfried\nRoy" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
