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!

This works for me. By adding

minimumLineHeight

let string = NSMutableAttributedString(string: venue.name)
let style = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
style.lineHeightMultiple = 0.68
style.minimumLineHeight = nameLabel.font.lineHeight
string.addAttribute(NSAttributedString.Key.paragraphStyle,
                    value: style,
                    range: NSMakeRange(0, venue.name.count))
nameLabel.attributedText = string
