nsattributedstring

Can I set the attributedText property of a UILabel object? I tried the below code: UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init]; label.attributedText = @"asdf"; But it gives this error: Property "attributedText" not found on object of type 'UILabel *' #import <CoreText/CoreText.h> not working Unfortunately, UILabel doesn't support attributed strings. You can use OHAttributedLabel instead. Update: Since iOS6, UILabel does support attributed strings. See UILabel reference or Michael Kessler's answer below for more details. Here is a complete example of how to use an attributed text on a label:

This question already has an answer here: How to add toggleBoldface option to a UITextView in iOS? 2 answers I have been searching for quite a while for a solution as to how to grant users the ability to underline, italicize and bold text in a UITextView but have not been able to find a solid solution. I have realized that I will need to use an NSAttributedString but am not sure as to how to create the UI and format the string so I am able to save it to a database. If you could point me in a proper direction that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! The UI is simply an ordinary editable

I just wanted to know how could i change the background color of an NSAttributedString, i can see the background being white all the time, but i want to make it black. Is that possible?? Many thanks! DenVog I think you want NSBackgroundColorAttributeName. Such as: [mutableAttributedString addAttribute:NSBackgroundColorAttributeName value:[UIColor yellowColor] range:selectedRange]; The best plan would really be to draw the string on a view with a black background. For swift 3.x attributedString.addAttribute(NSBackgroundColorAttributeName, value: yourColor, range: NSMakeRange(0, tillLocation))

I try to change a font size in my UITextView and every time I change the attributedText was restore to default. with this I make the middle test bold : str = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithAttributedString:string]; [str addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName value:newFont range:NSMakeRange(range.location, range.length)]; before: that was bold font in the middle. after :all the text bold I want that after the size change the bold stay where he be. Edit : I try with this two ways : 1) NSMutableAttributedString *attributedString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString

I know it is possible to apply attributes to an NSAttributedString. But how can we apply different attributes to same attributed string. for the string "This is an attributed text." How can we set a particular attribute(background color or foreground color) to "This is" another attribute(background color or foreground color) to "an attributed text." Is there any way to achieve this....? Also is there any way to set the background color of an NSAttributedString in iOS? Make a mutable copy of the attributed string, and then use either: -setAttributes:range: -addAttributes:range: -addAttribute
