I have autolayout off. I reverified all the options. I log out the height that is calculated by THEntryCell heightForEntry. This all looks correct.
The body text extends outside the range of the table cell. and the table cell itself does not grow in height.
Maybe this has to do with new versions of iOS, but I'm not equipped to tell.

2,242 PointsIt sort-of works if I do an autolayout solution as suggested in this link: http://www.appcoda.com/self-sizing-cells/
But this has nothing to do with the height calculation method Ash uses (I turned it off). That method should still work, I think a checkbox is just missing somewhere.

2,242 PointsI don't think so. For auto-line height detection, 0 is the correct number of lines. I think springs/struts doesn't work the way the video indicates, and I'm not sure how it works now.
I have it working with autolayout but want to understand the springs/struts way to do this.
