使用标签扩展

extension UILabel {

    // Pass value for any one of both parameters and see result
    func setLineSpacing(lineSpacing: CGFloat = 0.0, lineHeightMultiple: CGFloat = 0.0) {

        guard let labelText = self.text else { return }

        let paragraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
        paragraphStyle.lineSpacing = lineSpacing
        paragraphStyle.lineHeightMultiple = lineHeightMultiple

        let attributedString:NSMutableAttributedString
        if let labelattributedText = self.attributedText {
            attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(attributedString: labelattributedText)
        } else {
            attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: labelText)
        }

        // Line spacing attribute
        attributedString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.paragraphStyle, value:paragraphStyle, range:NSMakeRange(0, attributedString.length))

        self.attributedText = attributedString
    }
}

现在调用扩展函数

let label = UILabel()
let stringValue = "How to\ncontrol\nthe\nline spacing\nin UILabel"

// Pass value for any one argument - lineSpacing or lineHeightMultiple
label.setLineSpacing(lineSpacing: 2.0) .  // try values 1.0 to 5.0

// or try lineHeightMultiple
//label.setLineSpacing(lineHeightMultiple = 2.0) // try values 0.5 to 2.0

或者使用标签实例(只要复制并执行这段代码就可以看到结果)

let label = UILabel()
let stringValue = "How to\ncontrol\nthe\nline spacing\nin UILabel"
let attrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: stringValue)
var style = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
style.lineSpacing = 24 // change line spacing between paragraph like 36 or 48
style.minimumLineHeight = 20 // change line spacing between each line like 30 or 40

// Line spacing attribute
attrString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.paragraphStyle, value: style, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: stringValue.characters.count))

// Character spacing attribute
attrString.addAttribute(NSAttributedStringKey.kern, value: 2, range: NSMakeRange(0, attrString.length))

label.attributedText = attrString

斯威夫特3

let label = UILabel()
let stringValue = "How to\ncontrol\nthe\nline spacing\nin UILabel"
let attrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: stringValue)
var style = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
style.lineSpacing = 24 // change line spacing between paragraph like 36 or 48
style.minimumLineHeight = 20 // change line spacing between each line like 30 or 40
attrString.addAttribute(NSParagraphStyleAttributeName, value: style, range: NSRange(location: 0, length: stringValue.characters.count))
label.attributedText = attrString

在Xcode 6中，你可以在storyboard中这样做:

另一个答案……如果你通过编程的方式传递字符串，你需要传递一个带属性的字符串，而不是一个普通的字符串，并改变它的风格。

NSMutableAttributedString * attrString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Your \nregular \nstring"];
NSMutableParagraphStyle *style = [[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init];
[style setLineSpacing:4];
[attrString addAttribute:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName
                   value:style
                   range:NSMakeRange(0, attrString.length)];
_label.attributedText = attrString;

下面是UILabel的一个子类，它设置lineHeightMultiple并确保内在高度足够大，不会截断文本。

@IBDesignable
class Label: UILabel {
    override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {
        var size = super.intrinsicContentSize
        let padding = (1.0 - lineHeightMultiple) * font.pointSize
        size.height += padding
        return size
    }

    override var text: String? {
        didSet {
            updateAttributedText()
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable var lineHeightMultiple: CGFloat = 1.0 {
        didSet {
            updateAttributedText()
        }
    }

    private func updateAttributedText() {
        let paragraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
        paragraphStyle.lineHeightMultiple = lineHeightMultiple
        attributedText = NSAttributedString(string: text ?? "", attributes: [
            .font: font,
            .paragraphStyle: paragraphStyle,
            .foregroundColor: textColor
        ])
        invalidateIntrinsicContentSize()
    }
}

下面是一个子类UILabel具有行高属性的类:https://github.com/LemonCake/MSLabel

根据@Mike的回答，减少lineHeightMultiple是关键点。下面的例子，它很适合我:

NSString* text = label.text;
CGFloat textWidth = [text sizeWithAttributes:@{NSFontAttributeName: label.font}].width;
if (textWidth > label.frame.size.width) {
  NSMutableParagraphStyle *paragraph = [[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init];
  paragraph.alignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;
  paragraph.lineSpacing = 1.0f;
  paragraph.lineHeightMultiple = 0.75;     // Reduce this value !!!
  NSMutableAttributedString* attrText = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:text];
  [attrText addAttribute:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName value:paragraph range:NSMakeRange(0, text.length)];
  label.attributedText = attrText;
}
