Description

Reported via [~rdperottoni] on Slack: {quote} All my multi line labels on iOS are now with ellipsized and I need to specify maxLines for it to go back to normal. Anyone else with this issue ? [...] I believe this should be marked as a breaking update since now I'll have to update all my labels to have a set amount of lines. Also, the documentation should be updated since it says this property is not available on iOS. {quote} It was likely caused by TIMOB-24071, the expected behavior would be that the developer does not need to specify a maxLines property to display the label. Regarding the docs, it [works for me](http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.UI.Label-property-maxLines) and displays the correct since/platform keys.

    [~rdperottoni] I am unable to reproduce this issue with the following demo-code (both height: 50 and auto-sized): 
       
   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor: "#fff"});
   var label = Ti.UI.createLabel({
       text: 'kdljkdl asdajdas ldsjkld ajsdjasdsjakdasjkldajskdjklsadjklsadjklsadjklsadjklsajdkadsjkasjdkl',
       width: 200,
   	height: 50,
       backgroundColor: 'red'
   })
   
   win.add(label);
   win.open();
    See the 4 screens attached (6_1_X and 6_0_X with a specified height and auto-sized height). Both look like the same between the different SDK versions. If you can, please paste a small test-case here that reproduces the issue, thank you!

    Resolving as Invalid as communicated with [~rdperottoni]. It was a global layout setting that caused this issue.
