Actually the hack that uses KVO does not work with iOS 14. The fonts just get changed to something weird, definitely not what you were trying to set.

Done. (a while ago, but I forgot to reply here) thanks.

Thanks for the reminder, had meant to file the request but zoned out. Yes, I can create my own UI for editing, but that does not excuse the missing feature when Apple is trying to get us to replace one component with another. If there is a good reason for the missing feature then it would be nice to know what the reason is.

In an eventually consistent distributed system you can never "know" that you have existing data or devices in the cloud. Your application will simply "find out at some point" that this data exists and needs to be designed to handle that. You statement is from the perspective of a computer scientist, not from that of a user. And its all about the user, all the time in the real world. I've had many complaints from users that my app seems to have lost data - yes the user is being impatient and not waiting an infinite amount of time for the initial sync. But it should would be nice if we could trigger an initial sync or at least know that its happening so we can inform the user that "be patient, data is on its way to your device".

Update: I noticed that if touch the screen the animation completes and the entire current cell is displayed as expected.
