Find Height of String (with Emoji support)


#import <CoreText/CoreText.h>
- (CGFloat)heightStringWithEmojis:(NSString*)str fontType:(UIFont *)uiFont ForWidth:(CGFloat)width {

// Get text
CFMutableAttributedStringRef attrString = CFAttributedStringCreateMutable(kCFAllocatorDefault, 0);
CFAttributedStringReplaceString (attrString, CFRangeMake(0, 0), (CFStringRef) str );
CFIndex stringLength = CFStringGetLength((CFStringRef) attrString);

// Change font
CTFontRef ctFont = CTFontCreateWithName((__bridge CFStringRef) uiFont.fontName, uiFont.pointSize, NULL);
CFAttributedStringSetAttribute(attrString, CFRangeMake(0, stringLength), kCTFontAttributeName, ctFont);

// Calc the size
CTFramesetterRef framesetter = CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString(attrString);
CFRange fitRange;
CGSize frameSize = CTFramesetterSuggestFrameSizeWithConstraints(framesetter, CFRangeMake(0, 0), NULL, CGSizeMake(width, CGFLOAT_MAX), &fitRange);

CFRelease(ctFont);
CFRelease(framesetter);
CFRelease(attrString);

return frameSize.height + 10;

}
