How to copy objects behaviors into another from the same type?

Question

Is there any opportunity to copy objects behaviors to another?

e.g. I have an label "labelx" with the settings font size = 12 and color = blue Now I want to pass this settings to another label "y".

Thanks in advance!

this is not behaviour. – Amogh Talpallikar Jul 26 '13 at 13:18 — Amogh Talpallikar, Jul 26 '13 at 13:18
do you want to do that in IB or in code? – Eric Genet Jul 26 '13 at 13:19 — Eric Genet, Jul 26 '13 at 13:19

label2.font = label1.font;
label2.textColor = label1.textColor;

If you have a lot of this labels it would make sense to add them to an array and "copy" the properties in an enumerated loop.

You might want to take a look at this answer - it shows a way of deep-copying a label.

Compiler doesn't know which properties you want to copy. I added a link that might interest you. – Rok Jarc Jul 26 '13 at 13:24
You can create custom label in singleton and it will be in one step. – user2545330 Jul 26 '13 at 13:44
