title: Changing frame of view loaded from Xib
body: <p>I am trying to change the frame of my custom view which I load from a xib. </p>
  
  <p><strong>Here is my init method of the view:</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>- (id)initWithUserName:(NSString*)userName andComment:(NSString*)comment
  {
  
      if (self) {
          self = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"Comment" owner:self options:nil]objectAtIndex:0];
  
          self.userName = userName;
          self.comment = comment;
          NSLog(@"CREATED");
          NSLog(@"%@, %@",self.userName, self.comment);
  
          self.userNameButton.tag = -1;
  
          CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(240, 2000);
          self.userNameButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
          CGSize sizeOfUsernameText = [self.userName sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
  
          //color converted from #161616 Hex
          [self.userNameButton.titleLabel setTextColor:[StaticMethods colorFromHexString:@"#161616"]];
          [self.userNameButton setTitle:[self.userName stringByAppendingString:@":"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
          [self.userNameButton.titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0]];
          [self.userNameButton setNeedsDisplay];
  
          //[self.userNameButton addTarget:self.delegate action:@selector(userNameButtonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
          //Append appropriate amount so that the usernames can be seen and clickable
          NSString *indentString = @" ";
          CGSize sizeOfWhitespaces = [indentString sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
          while (sizeOfWhitespaces.width &lt; sizeOfUsernameText.width) {
              sizeOfWhitespaces = [indentString sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
              indentString = [indentString stringByAppendingString: @" "];
  
          }
          CGSize sizeOfComment = [comment sizeWithFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0] constrainedToSize:constraint lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap];
  
          self.commentText.tag = -1;
          self.commentText.text = [indentString stringByAppendingString: self.comment];
          self.commentText.font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"OpenSans-Light" size:12.0];
          [self.commentText setTextColor:[StaticMethods colorFromHexString:@"#161616"]];
  
      }
  
      return self;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>This method is called from a view controller like this:</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>- (void)viewDidLoad
  {
      [super viewDidLoad];
      for(int i = 0; i &lt; self.userNames.count;i++){
          CommentView *view = [[CommentView alloc]initWithUserName:[self.userNames objectAtIndex:i] andComment:[self.comments objectAtIndex:i]];
          [view setDelegate: self];
          [self.view addSubview:view];
          view.frame = CGRectMake(0,100,320,100);
  
  
      }
  
      // Do any additional setup after loading the view from its nib.
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, the line where it says <code>view.frame = CGRectMake(0,100,320,100);</code> is where i try to change the views frame. <strong>I have tried putting that code inside the view's</strong> </p>
  
  <p><code>- (id)initWithUserName:(NSString*)userName andComment:(NSString*)comment</code> </p>
  
  <p><strong>method body as well</strong>, without luck.</p>
  
  <p>So clearly I am having trouble resizing the view according to my preferences.
  The view has always the same frame as when it is presented in interface builder.</p>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have tried putting the above <code>viewDidLoad</code> body inside that viewcontroller's <code>viewWillAppear</code> body, without any progress.</p>
