Xcode UILabel bug? Line spacing cropping text with a UILabel

Question

I have some designs I'm following for an iOS project. The font used is Avenir with relatively tight line spacing.

Some of these labels will have dynamic text, so I can't just make the label's size larger since the size should be determined by the content.

By default line spacing for a UILabel ends up pretty large.

If I adjust the Line Height Multiple or the Max Height , the text along the top ends up cropped.

---

It should behave like this (Affinity Designer)...

Is there a way to handle this?

Thanks for your help!
