macOS Draw text centered in Custom view

[gonche1124]

I have a custom view and I'm trying to draw some text centered, but when the text is too long, it truncates inserting an ellipsis character. I need the text to automatically break the line if the text doesn't fit in my custom view, so I will never miss any text.

any ideas on how to do this?

thanks

Andres

How are you drawing the text? Core Graphics/Quartz?

You probably need to calculate the height of the text at your given width, then center that rect in your view and draw within it:
