Hi.

A "quicky": how can I get the size (width) of a NSString?

I'm trying to see if the string width of a string to see if it is bigger than a given width of screen, case in which I have to "crop" it and append it with "...", getting the usual behavior of a UILabel. string.length won't do the trick since AAAAAAAA and iiiiii have the same length but different sizes (for example).

I'm kind of stuck.

Thanks a lot.
