根据Swift 4.2 (Xcode 10 beta 6)"UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect"已弃用。 我还将类声明为public以使其更有用。

public class UIPaddedLabel: UILabel {

    @IBInspectable var topInset: CGFloat = 5.0
    @IBInspectable var bottomInset: CGFloat = 5.0
    @IBInspectable var leftInset: CGFloat = 7.0
    @IBInspectable var rightInset: CGFloat = 7.0

    public override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
        let insets = UIEdgeInsets.init(top: topInset, left: leftInset, bottom: bottomInset, right: rightInset)
        super.drawText(in: rect.inset(by: insets))
    }

    public override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {
        let size = super.intrinsicContentSize
        return CGSize(width: size.width + leftInset + rightInset,
                      height: size.height + topInset + bottomInset)
    }

    public override func sizeToFit() {
        super.sizeThatFits(intrinsicContentSize)
    }
}

子类UILabel。(File-New-File- CocoaTouchClass-make UILabel的子类)。

//  sampleLabel.swift

import UIKit

class sampleLabel: UILabel {

 let topInset = CGFloat(5.0), bottomInset = CGFloat(5.0), leftInset = CGFloat(8.0), rightInset = CGFloat(8.0)

 override func drawTextInRect(rect: CGRect) {

  let insets: UIEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: topInset, left: leftInset, bottom: bottomInset, right: rightInset)
  super.drawTextInRect(UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets))

 }
 override func intrinsicContentSize() -> CGSize {
  var intrinsicSuperViewContentSize = super.intrinsicContentSize()
  intrinsicSuperViewContentSize.height += topInset + bottomInset
  intrinsicSuperViewContentSize.width += leftInset + rightInset
  return intrinsicSuperViewContentSize
 }
}

ViewController:

override func viewDidLoad() {
  super.viewDidLoad()

  let labelName = sampleLabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 100, 300, 25))
  labelName.text = "Sample Label"
  labelName.backgroundColor =  UIColor.grayColor()

  labelName.textColor = UIColor.redColor()
  labelName.shadowColor = UIColor.blackColor()
  labelName.font = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: CGFloat(22))
  self.view.addSubview(labelName)
 }

或者将Storyboard上的自定义UILabel类关联为Label的类。

只需使用一个UIView作为一个superview，并定义一个固定的边距标签与自动布局。

简单填充(Swift 3.0, Alvin George回答):

  class NewLabel: UILabel {

        override func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect, limitedToNumberOfLines numberOfLines: Int) -> CGRect {
                return self.bounds.insetBy(dx: CGFloat(15.0), dy: CGFloat(15.0))
        }

        override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
                super.drawText(in: self.bounds.insetBy(dx: CGFloat(5.0), dy: CGFloat(5.0)))
        }

  }

没有故事板:

class PaddingLabel: UILabel {

    var topInset: CGFloat
    var bottomInset: CGFloat
    var leftInset: CGFloat
    var rightInset: CGFloat

    required init(withInsets top: CGFloat, _ bottom: CGFloat,_ left: CGFloat,_ right: CGFloat) {
        self.topInset = top
        self.bottomInset = bottom
        self.leftInset = left
        self.rightInset = right
        super.init(frame: CGRect.zero)
    }

    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
    }

    override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
        let insets = UIEdgeInsets(top: topInset, left: leftInset, bottom: bottomInset, right: rightInset)
        super.drawText(in: UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets))
    }

    override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {
        get {
            var contentSize = super.intrinsicContentSize
            contentSize.height += topInset + bottomInset
            contentSize.width += leftInset + rightInset
            return contentSize
        }
    }
}

用法:

let label = PaddingLabel(8, 8, 16, 16)
label.font = .boldSystemFont(ofSize: 16)
label.text = "Hello World"
label.backgroundColor = .black
label.textColor = .white
label.textAlignment = .center
label.layer.cornerRadius = 8
label.clipsToBounds = true
label.sizeToFit()

view.addSubview(label)

结果:

我在任何地方都没有看到这个答案。我的技巧是在标签上设置宽度限制，并在设置标签文本时调整宽度。

self.myLabel.text = myString;

UIFont * const font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:17 weight:UIFontWeightRegular]; // Change to your own label font.

CGSize const size = CGSizeMake(INFINITY, 18); // 18 is height of label.

CGFloat const textWidth = [myString boundingRectWithSize:size options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin attributes:@{NSFontAttributeName: font} context:nil].size.width;

self.myLabelWidthConstraint.constant = textWidth + 20; // 10 padding on each side. Also, set text alignment to centre.
