nsattributedstring

I am having trouble getting consistent results from UITextViews in a UITableViewCell using NSAttributedStrings. Inside - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath: UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier]; if (cell == nil) { cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier]; headerText = [[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectZero]; [headerText setUserInteractionEnabled:NO]; headerText.tag = HEADER_TEXT; [cell.contentView addSubview

Want to change alignment of html label. Nothing works. I don't see any CSS in the HTML. There are no further settings changing the alignment. I also set left alignment directly on the UILabel. What am I missing? The code is in UILabel extension. NSMutableParagraphStyle *paragraphStyle = [[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init]; paragraphStyle.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping; paragraphStyle.alignment = NSTextAlignmentLeft; NSDictionary *attr = @{NSDocumentTypeDocumentAttribute: NSHTMLTextDocumentType, NSCharacterEncodingDocumentAttribute: @(NSUTF8StringEncoding),

I see for NSAttributedString has a specific attribute for superscript, but I can't find one for subscript. What is the general practice for using NSAttributedString to create a subscript character? Example: H2O Try NSSuperscriptAttributeName with a negative value. Failing that, the hard way would be to replace [0123456789] characters with [₀₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉] in the string. I struggled with subscripts/superscripts in NSMutableAttributedString for a while because the most basic solutions require inputting a NSRange for each and every character you want to subscript. Surely there's a more automatic way

I am creating a pdf from user provided text, however I have an issue when the text is too big for the page, I have to calculate where the text would be cut off so I can move the next chunk to the next page. I use this code to draw the attributed text: CGRect rect = CGRectFromString(elementInfo[@"rect"]); NSString *text = elementInfo[@"text"]; NSDictionary *attributes = elementInfo[@"attributes"]; NSAttributedString *attString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:text attributes:attributes]; [attString drawWithRect:rect options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin |

I'm loading in text from a plist and displaying it within my app. Ideally I want to be able to specify more complex formatting such as italics, bold and superscript text, and display it in a custom label such as TTTAttributedLabel . Are there any available libraries to parse a string in a given format (preferably a simple text format such as Markdown or Textile) into an NSAttributedString? I am aware that solutions are available for parsing RTF and HTML, but this is overkill for my needs - plus I'd like the text to be easily written by hand. Edit: this is for iOS/UIKit I've just added an

I'm looking to create a SpriteKit Node positioned at the location of a substring inside a UITextView. How would I retrieve the CGPoint location so I can position the SKNode there? let textFont = [NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "GillSansMT", size: 30.0) ?? UIFont.systemFontOfSize(18.0)] attrString1 = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "My name is Dug.", attributes: textFont) textShown1 = CustomTextView(frame: CGRectMake(CGRectGetMidX(self.frame), 175 + (90 * paragraphNumber), CGRectGetWidth(self.frame) - 80, CGRectGetHeight(self.frame)-400)) textShown1.attributedText = attrString1 self.view?
