你需要计算UILabel大小，当你放置嵌入。它可以有不同的行数，因为文本对齐，换行模式。

override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {

    let size = self.sizeThatFits(UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, insets).size);
    super.drawText(in: CGRect.init(origin: CGPoint.init(x: insets.left, y: insets.top), size: size));
}

override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {

    var size = super.intrinsicContentSize;

    if text == nil || text?.count == 0 {
        return size;
    }

    size = self.sizeThatFits(UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(CGRect.init(origin: CGPoint.zero, size: size), insets).size);
    size.width  += self.insets.left + self.insets.right;
    size.height += self.insets.top + self.insets.bottom;

    return size;
}

尝试 iEun/InsetLabel

在Swift 3中，你可以通过创建UILabel的子类来达到你想要的效果。在这个子类中，你必须添加一个UIEdgeInsets属性，并覆盖drawText(In:)方法，intrinsicContentSize属性(用于自动布局代码)和/或sizeThatFits(_:)方法(用于Springs和Struts代码)。

import UIKit

class PaddingLabel: UILabel {

    let padding: UIEdgeInsets

    // Create a new PaddingLabel instance programamtically with the desired insets
    required init(padding: UIEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 10, bottom: 0, right: 10)) {
        self.padding = padding
        super.init(frame: CGRect.zero)
    }

    // Create a new PaddingLabel instance programamtically with default insets
    override init(frame: CGRect) {
        padding = UIEdgeInsets.zero // set desired insets value according to your needs
        super.init(frame: frame)
    }

    // Create a new PaddingLabel instance from Storyboard with default insets
    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        padding = UIEdgeInsets.zero // set desired insets value according to your needs
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    }

    override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
        super.drawText(in: UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, padding))
    }

    // Override `intrinsicContentSize` property for Auto layout code
    override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {
        let superContentSize = super.intrinsicContentSize
        let width = superContentSize.width + padding.left + padding.right
        let height = superContentSize.height + padding.top + padding.bottom
        return CGSize(width: width, height: height)
    }

    // Override `sizeThatFits(_:)` method for Springs & Struts code
    override func sizeThatFits(_ size: CGSize) -> CGSize {
        let superSizeThatFits = super.sizeThatFits(size)
        let width = superSizeThatFits.width + padding.left + padding.right
        let heigth = superSizeThatFits.height + padding.top + padding.bottom
        return CGSize(width: width, height: heigth)
    }

}

下面的例子展示了如何在UIViewController中使用PaddingLabel实例:

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var storyboardAutoLayoutLabel: PaddingLabel!
    let autoLayoutLabel = PaddingLabel(padding: UIEdgeInsets(top: 20, left: 40, bottom: 20, right: 40))
    let springsAndStructsLabel = PaddingLabel(frame: CGRect.zero)
    var textToDisplay = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit er elit lamet."

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        // Set autoLayoutLabel
        autoLayoutLabel.text = textToDisplay
        autoLayoutLabel.backgroundColor = .red
        autoLayoutLabel.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
        view.addSubview(autoLayoutLabel)
        autoLayoutLabel.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor, constant: 30).isActive = true
        autoLayoutLabel.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor).isActive = true

        // Set springsAndStructsLabel
        springsAndStructsLabel.text = textToDisplay
        springsAndStructsLabel.backgroundColor = .green
        view.addSubview(springsAndStructsLabel)
        springsAndStructsLabel.frame.origin = CGPoint(x: 30, y: 90)
        springsAndStructsLabel.sizeToFit()

        // Set storyboardAutoLayoutLabel
        storyboardAutoLayoutLabel.text = textToDisplay
        storyboardAutoLayoutLabel.backgroundColor = .blue
    }

    // Link this IBAction to a UIButton or a UIBarButtonItem in Storyboard
    @IBAction func updateLabelText(_ sender: Any) {
        textToDisplay = textToDisplay == "Lorem ipsum dolor sit er elit lamet." ? "Lorem ipsum." : "Lorem ipsum dolor sit er elit lamet."

        // autoLayoutLabel
        autoLayoutLabel.text = textToDisplay

        // springsAndStructsLabel
        springsAndStructsLabel.text = textToDisplay
        springsAndStructsLabel.sizeToFit()

        // storyboardAutoLayoutLabel
        storyboardAutoLayoutLabel.text = textToDisplay
    }

}

对于这样一个简单的情况，子类化有点麻烦。另一种方法是将没有背景设置的UILabel添加到有背景设置的UIView中。将标签的x设置为10，并使外部视图的大小比标签宽20个像素。

很多答案都缺少对sizeThatFits的重写。有了这个子类，你可以创建标签，设置填充，然后输入label。sizetofit()，瞧。

import UIKit

class UILabelEx : UILabel
{
    var padding : UIEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 0, right: 0)

    override func drawTextInRect(rect: CGRect) {

        super.drawTextInRect(UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, padding))
    }

    override func sizeThatFits(size: CGSize) -> CGSize
    {

        var adjSize = super.sizeThatFits(size)
        adjSize.width += padding.left + padding.right
        adjSize.height += padding.top + padding.bottom

        return adjSize
    }
}

blyabtroi的asnwer在Swift中转换(不需要子类化)

let style: NSMutableParagraphStyle = NSParagraphStyle.defaultParagraphStyle().mutableCopy() as! NSMutableParagraphStyle
style.alignment = .Justified
style.firstLineHeadIndent = 10.0
style.headIndent = 10.0
style.tailIndent = -10.0
let attrText: NSAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: title, attributes: [NSParagraphStyleAttributeName:style])
let label: UILabel = UILabel(frame: someFrame)
label.numberOfLines = 0
label.attributedText = attrText

对于Xamarin用户(使用统一API):

class UIMarginLabel : UILabel
{
    public UIMarginLabel()
    {
    }

    public UIMarginLabel( CGRect frame ) : base( frame )
    {
    }

    public UIEdgeInsets Insets { get; set; }

    public override void DrawText( CGRect rect )
    {
        base.DrawText( Insets.InsetRect( rect ) );
    }
}

对于那些使用原始MonoTouch API的人:

public class UIMarginLabel : UILabel
{
    public UIEdgeInsets Insets { get; set; }

    public UIMarginLabel() : base()
    {
        Insets = new UIEdgeInsets(0, 0, 0, 0);
    }
    public UIMarginLabel(RectangleF frame) : base(frame)
    {
        Insets = new UIEdgeInsets(0, 0, 0, 0);
    }

    public override void DrawText(RectangleF frame)
    {
        base.DrawText(new RectangleF(
            frame.X + Insets.Left,
            frame.Y + Insets.Top,
            frame.Width - Insets.Left - Insets.Right,
            frame.Height - Insets.Top - Insets.Bottom));
    }
}
