How to create bubble message box similar to iPhone building iPhone application?

I am trying to create table cells with a bubble message similar to the iPhone SMS or iChat application.

Does anyone have an example code that I can reference?

Answer 1

UIImage may have borders on the sides and bottom, which do not change when the image is stretched.

leftCapWidth and topCapHeight are 2 properties that need to be changed to achieve this.

Then create a UIImageView (using the image) of the required size behind your text.
