ios7: UILabel with newline as first character let's whole text disappear

If you have a UILabel with numberOfLines set something > 1 and try the follwoing:

UILabel *lbl;
lbl.text = "line1\nline2";   // works and displays 2 lines

line1

line2

lbl.text = "\nline2"; // works in iOS 6 and shows an empty line and a second line with line2

does not show anything in iOS 7

Under iOS6 you get: > >

line2 (with an empty first line)

Any idea why a newline character at the beginning of a Label-text spoils the UILabel since iOS 7?

I was facing the same issue and how I fixed it ?? I added a blank space before new line character i.e "\n" like @" \n hi this is sample code." and it worked fine then. Try it Plzz.

I think you should to add this:

lbl.numberOfLines = 0;

to enable multiline. It works differently on 6 and 7 ios.
