About Attributed String Creator Pro
A TOP 5 DEVELOPER TOOL IN 39 COUNTRIES
Attributed String Creator takes all of the work out of programming with NSAttributedStrings by automatically generating native Swift 5 or Objective-C code from your formatted text.
Write, paste or import any text into Attributed String Creator and it will produce a neat and easily readable equivalent of your text in NSMutableAttributedString declaration form. Copy this into your Xcode project and youβll have an exact reproduction of your text as a variable you can assign to labels, text views, buttons, tables and anything else that supports it.
There are lots of advantages to using attributed strings in your apps; the aesthetics of an app can make or break it so itβs important that your apps look their best. Having richly formatted, sharp, vibrant text can make a big difference to how users perceive your work and will help your apps stand out from the crowd.
App Developers have tried many ways of producing rich typography in their apps in the past, but they all have their failings:
β Creating a png or jpg of the text and displaying it as an image (This wonβt look sharp, wonβt resize itself for different screen dimensions and canβt be created dynamically)
β Using multiple labels for each alternative text style (This isnβt practical unless formatting only changes on separate lines)
β Using Interface Builderβs attributes inspector
β Using a UIWebView and formatting the text with HTML (This only works as a replacement for a UITextView. You couldnβt use this technique with a button title for example)
β Working with Core Text (This is a lower level, more customizable text manipulation framework but itβs too complicated to be practical unless you specifically require the use of its advanced features)
All of these workarounds exist because of the difficulty and amount of time it takes to programmatically declare Appleβs native form of rich text β¦β¦but now the problem is solved.
