Diary app interface inconsistent

Hi all,

I'm following along with the diary app tutorials, I just finished the 5th section (Custom UITableViewCell) however my interface looks pretty terrible.

The issues I have are:

The body label text is not word wrapping, I have a single line with ... at the end. I have the following code which I believe Ash says is to enable word wrapping in the GCRect boundingBox of EntryCell.m (NSStringDrawingUsesFontLeading|NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin)

Also, both of my UIImageViews are not aligned within the table cell, I have placed them to the top left of the cell however when the app is running they appear central to the cell vertically. I checked the autosizing and they are only configured to 'stick' to the left and top margins.

I also double checked and Auto Layout is disable for the UITableViewController (and cell)

I also rechecked my code with the videos and it appears ok

Thanks for any help

Lee

Manage to fix this

It was due to my error, it looks like I was setting the actual imageView of the UITableViewCell, and not setting the image of my mainImageView IBOutlet.

Code was self.imageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:entry.imageData]; And is now self.mainImageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:entry.imageData];
