Underlining text in UIButton

Question

Can anyone suggest how to underline the title of a UIButton ? I have a UIButton of Custom type, and I want the Title to be underlined, but the Interface Builder does not pr

Answer 1

Here is my function, works in Swift 1.2.

func underlineButton(button : UIButton, text: String) {

    var titleString : NSMutableAttributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: text)
    titleString.addAttribute(NSUnderlineStyleAttributeName, value: NSUnderlineStyle.StyleSingle.rawValue, range: NSMakeRange(0, count(text.utf8)))
    button.setAttributedTitle(titleString, forState: .Normal)
}

UPDATE Swift 3.0 extension:

extension UIButton {
    func underlineButton(text: String) {
        let titleString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: text)
        titleString.addAttribute(NSUnderlineStyleAttributeName, value: NSUnderlineStyle.styleSingle.rawValue, range: NSMakeRange(0, text.characters.count))
        self.setAttributedTitle(titleString, for: .normal)
    }
}
