I'm working on trying to recreate the first SwiftUI Tutorial in code without using SwiftUI. In the example, it mentions using a Spacer "to direct the layout to use the full width of the device":
VStack {
Text("Turtle Rock")
HStack {
Text("Joshua Tree National Park")
Spacer()
Text("California")
}
}
For the VStack, HStack, and Text views, I can easily use UIStackView and UILabel. But for the Spacer, I can't seem to find any equivalent in the standard library (no UISpacer or anything like that), which makes me think this is something custom to SwiftUI. In the tutorial, it describes how this Spacer works:
A spacer expands to make its containing view use all of the space of its parent view, instead of having its size defined only by its contents.
So how can I recreate the functionality of this Spacer view programmatically? Do I just add a constraint to the UIStackView to make it full width? Or is there a way to add a subview to the UIStackView that makes it behave like it does in SwiftUI?
I have worked solution using dummy UIView() which has set big constant widthConstraint using low priority - this ensures UIView will grow as much as possible but will not grow over superview constraints since it has lower priority.
Example:
let titleLabel = UILabel()
titleLabel.text = "Joshua Tree National Park"
let spacer = UIView()
// maximum width constraint
let spacerWidthConstraint = spacer.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: .greatestFiniteMagnitude) // or some very high constant
spacerWidthConstraint.priority = .defaultLow // ensures it will not "overgrow"
spacerWidthConstraint.isActive = true
let descriptionLabel = UILabel()
descriptionLabel.text = "California"
UIStackView(arrangedSubviews: [titleLabel, spacer, descriptionLabel])
Swift 5
You can create an extension for UIView to create a spacer in this way:
extension UIView {
static func spacer(size: CGFloat = 10, for layout: NSLayoutConstraint.Axis = .horizontal) -> UIView {
let spacer = UIView()
if layout == .horizontal {
spacer.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: size).isActive = true
} else {
spacer.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: size).isActive = true
}
return spacer
}
}
After that, you can add your spacer into stacks in this way:
// ... some code
let stack = UIStackView(arrangedSubviews: [UIView.spacer(), UILabel(), UIView.spacer(), UILabel(), UIView.spacer()])
stack.axis = .horizontal
stack.distribution = .equalSpacing
// For vertical stacks
let stack = UIStackView(arrangedSubviews: [UIView.spacer(for: .vertical), UILabel(), UIView.spacer(for: .vertical), UILabel(), UIView.spacer(for: .vertical)])
stack.axis = .vertical
stack.distribution = .equalSpacing
I think in this way, you can play with spacer size/layout and stack distribution/alignment to get the desired space.
A plain UIView() can replace a SwiftUI.Spacer as long as distribution is set to fill, since it has no set width constraint. I've only tested this vertically. However, you should note the layout performed by UIStackView and SwiftUI.HStack are not actually the same steps, though the end results may appear similar; something to look into.
Does anyone know whether it's possible, in Photoshop extend script, to convert an irregular selection (e.g. magic wand tool selection) into a rectangular selection encompassing the top, left, bottom and right bounds of the selection?
Here it is, I have documented the code so you can modify it later if you need. Also, check page 166 and following of Photoshop's JS reference manual, you may read more about selections - you can set feather, extend/intersect/etc. the selection if you need to.
Made for CS6, should work with latter.
#target photoshop
if (documents.length == 0) {
alert("nothing opened");
} else {
// start
//setup
var file = app.activeDocument;
var selec = file.selection;
//run
var bnds = selec.bounds; // get the bounds of current selection
var // save the particular pixel values
xLeft = bnds[0],
yTop = bnds[1],
xRight = bnds[2],
yBottom = bnds[3];
var newRect = [ [xLeft,yTop], [xLeft,yBottom], [xRight,yBottom], [xRight,yTop] ]; // set coords for selection, counter-clockwise
selec.deselect;
selec.select(newRect);
// end
}
I'm trying to force NSLayoutManager to draw a glyph at some range with different attributes but it still uses attributes set in NSTextStorage object.
I was trying to create NSGlyph from different font and replace it with the one in NSTypesetter's glyph storage. But it's useles - layout manager still draws that glyph with the font an the color specified in text storage attribute string.
public override func drawGlyphs(forGlyphRange glyphsToShow: NSRange, at origin: NSPoint) {
// now set glyphs for invisible characters
if PreferencesManager.shared.shouldShowInvisibles == true {
var spaceRanges = [NSRange]()
let charRange = self.characterRange(forGlyphRange: glyphsToShow, actualGlyphRange: nil)
var substring = (self.currentTextStorage.string as NSString).substring(with: charRange)
let spacesExpression = try? NSRegularExpression(pattern: "[ ]", options: NSRegularExpression.Options.useUnicodeWordBoundaries)
let substringRange = NSRange(location: 0, length: substring.characters.count)
if let matches = spacesExpression?.matches(in: substring, options: .withoutAnchoringBounds, range: substringRange) {
for match in matches {
spaceRanges.append(NSRange(location: charRange.location + match.range.location, length: 1))
}
}
for spaceRange in spaceRanges {
let invisibleFont = Font(name: "Gill Sans", size: 11) ?? Font.systemFont(ofSize: 11)
// get any glyph to test the approach
var glyph = invisibleFont.glyph(withName: "paragraph")
// replce the glyphs
self.typesetter.substituteGlyphs(in: spaceRange, withGlyphs: &glyph)
}
}
// BUT LAYOUT MANAGER IGNORES THE FONT OF THE GLYPH I CREATED
super.drawGlyphs(forGlyphRange: glyphsToShow, at: origin)
}
How can I force layout manager to ignore those attributes at some range and to draw glyph I create with the font and color I need? I need this because I'm working on the most efficient way to draw the invisible characters.
You're directly modifying the typesetter here, but when you call super, it's going to re-do all that work. You likely to override getGlyphs(in:glyphs:properties:characterIndexes:bidiLevels:) instead, calling super and then swapping any glyphs you want. Alternately you might call setGlyphs(...) here before calling super.
See Display hidden characters in NSTextView for an example of what you're trying to do using deprecated methods. I am fairly certain that replaceGlyphAtIndex is replaced by setGlyphs.
I have several images, which are Symbols (movieClip) with Alpha parameter.
And i'm creating dynamic textfield from AS3 to be able change text every few seconds.
Problem is that everything worked good till i converted images to MovieClips. But after that my textfields are not visible.
Here is the code:
textFormat = new TextFormat();
textfield = new TextField();
textFormat.font = new customFonts().fontName;
textFormat.size = 16;
textFormat.align = "center";
textFormat.color = 0xFFFFFF;
textfield.defaultTextFormat = textFormat;
textfield.embedFonts = true;
textfield.width = 480;
textfield.height = 95;
textfield.x = 185;
textfield.y = 22;
textfield.wordWrap = true;
addChild (textfield);
So the question is - how to bring this textfield to the top so it would be visible?
You're adding your Text field after the movie clips are being initiated. Think of it as a layer, the text field is at the bottom layer, hence they will not be seen.
I would look at the container class
The Container class is an abstract base class for components that controls the layout characteristics of child components. You do not create an instance of Container in an application. Instead, you create an instance of one of Container's subclasses, such as Canvas or HBox.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/mx/core/Container.html
You should be able to change what is displayed.
EDIT:
Anytime you add a clip it is added on top by default.
You should also look into Z-Index.
If you are coding with Flash Develop then it can get tricky, whilst using Flash Adobe CC can make your life so much easier!
Sorry if it's not that much of an answer.
I'm using an NSMutableAttribtuedString in order to build a string with formatting, which I then pass to Core Text to render into a frame. The problem is, that I need to use superscript and subscript. Unless these characters are available in the font (most fonts don't support it), then setting the property kCTSuperscriptAttributeName does nothing at all.
So I guess I'm left with the only option, which is to fake it by changing the font size and moving the base line. I can do the font size bit, but don't know the code for altering the base line. Can anyone help please?
Thanks!
EDIT: I'm thinking, considering the amount of time I have available to sort this problem, of editing a font so that it's given a subscript "2"... Either that or finding a built-in iPad font which does. Does anyone know of any serif font with a subscript "2" I can use?
There is no baseline setting amongst the CTParagraphStyleSpecifiers or the defined string attribute name constants. I think it's therefore safe to conclude that CoreText does not itself support a baseline adjust property on text. There's a reference made to baseline placement in CTTypesetter, but I can't tie that to any ability to vary the baseline over the course of a line in the iPad's CoreText.
Hence, you probably need to interfere in the rendering process yourself. For example:
create a CTFramesetter, e.g. via CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString
get a CTFrame from that via CTFramesetterCreateFrame
use CTFrameGetLineOrigins and CTFrameGetLines to get an array of CTLines and where they should be drawn (ie, the text with suitable paragraph/line breaks and all your other kerning/leading/other positioning text attributes applied)
from those, for lines with no superscript or subscript, just use CTLineDraw and forget about it
for those with superscript or subscript, use CTLineGetGlyphRuns to get an array of CTRun objects describing the various glyphs on the line
on each run, use CTRunGetStringIndices to determine which source characters are in the run; if none that you want to superscript or subscript are included, just use CTRunDraw to draw the thing
otherwise, use CTRunGetGlyphs to break the run into individual glyphs and CTRunGetPositions to figure out where they would be drawn in the normal run of things
use CGContextShowGlyphsAtPoint as appropriate, having tweaked the text matrix for those you want in superscript or subscript
I haven't yet found a way to query whether a font has the relevant hints for automatic superscript/subscript generation, which makes things a bit tricky. If you're desperate and don't have a solution to that, it's probably easier just not to use CoreText's stuff at all — in which case you should probably define your own attribute (that's why [NS/CF]AttributedString allow arbitrary attributes to be applied, identified by string name) and use the normal NSString searching methods to identify regions that need to be printed in superscript or subscript from blind.
For performance reasons, binary search is probably the way to go on searching all lines, the runs within a line and the glyphs within a run for those you're interested in. Assuming you have a custom UIView subclass to draw CoreText content, it's probably smarter to do it ahead of time rather than upon every drawRect: (or the equivalent methods, if e.g. you're using a CATiledLayer).
Also, the CTRun methods have variants that request a pointer to a C array containing the things you're asking for copies of, possibly saving you a copy operation but not necessarily succeeding. Check the documentation. I've just made sure that I'm sketching a workable solution rather than necessarily plotting the absolutely optimal route through the CoreText API.
Here is some code based on Tommy's outline that does the job quite well (tested on only single lines though). Set the baseline on your attributed string with #"MDBaselineAdjust", and this code draws the line to offset, a CGPoint. To get superscript, also lower the font size a notch. Preview of what's possible: http://cloud.mochidev.com/IfPF (the line that reads "[Xe] 4f14...")
Hope this helps :)

You can mimic subscripts now using TextKit in iOS7. Example:
NSMutableAttributedString *carbonDioxide = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:#"CO2"];
[carbonDioxide addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName value:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:8] range:NSMakeRange(2, 1)];
[carbonDioxide addAttribute:NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName value:#(-2) range:NSMakeRange(2, 1)];
I've been having trouble with this myself. Apple's Core Text documentation claims that there has been support in iOS since version 3.2, but for some reason it still just doesn't work. Even in iOS 5... how very frustrating >.<
I managed to find a workaround if you only really care about superscript or subscript numbers. Say you have a block of text can might contain a "sub2" tag where you want a subscript number 2. Use NSRegularExpression to find the tags, and then use replacementStringForResult method on your regex object to replace each tag with unicode characters:
if ([match isEqualToString:#"<sub2/>"])
{
replacement = #"₂";
}
If you use the OSX character viewer, you can drop unicode characters right into your code. There's a set of characters in there called "Digits" which has all the superscript and subscript number characters. Just leave your cursor at the appropriate spot in your code window and double-click in the character viewer to insert the character you want.
With the right font, you could probably do this with any letter as well, but the character map only has a handful of non-numbers available for this that I've seen.
Alternatively you can just put the unicode characters in your source content, but in a lot of cases (like mine), that isn't possible.
Swift 4
Very loosely based off of Graham Perks' answer. I could not make his code work as is but after three hours of work I've created something that works great! If you'd prefer a full implementation of this along with a bunch of nifty other performance and feature add-ons (links, async drawing, etc), check out my single file library DYLabel. If not, read on.
I explain everything I'm doing in the comments. This is the draw method, to be called from drawRect:
/// Draw text on a given context. Supports superscript using NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName
///
/// This method works by drawing the text backwards (i.e. last line first). This is very very important because it's how we ensure superscripts don't overlap the text above it. In other words, we need to start from the bottom, get the height of the text we just drew, and then draw the next text above it. This could be done in a forward direction but you'd have to use lookahead which IMO is more work.
///
/// If you have to modify on this, remember that CT uses a mathmatical origin (i.e. 0,0 is bottom left like a cartisian plane)
/// - Parameters:
/// - context: A core graphics draw context
/// - attributedText: An attributed string
func drawText(context:CGContext, attributedText: NSAttributedString) {
//Create our CT boiler plate
let framesetter = CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString(attributedText)
let textRect = bounds
let path = CGPath(rect: textRect, transform: nil)
let frame = CTFramesetterCreateFrame(framesetter, CFRangeMake(0, 0), path, nil)
//Fetch our lines, bridging to swift from CFArray
let lines = CTFrameGetLines(frame) as [AnyObject]
let lineCount = lines.count
//Get the line origin coordinates. These are used for calculating stock line height (w/o baseline modifications)
var lineOrigins = [CGPoint](repeating: CGPoint.zero, count: lineCount)
CTFrameGetLineOrigins(frame, CFRangeMake(0, 0), &lineOrigins);
//Since we're starting from the bottom of the container we need get our bottom offset/padding (so text isn't slammed to the bottom or cut off)
var ascent:CGFloat = 0
var descent:CGFloat = 0
var leading:CGFloat = 0
if lineCount > 0 {
CTLineGetTypographicBounds(lines.last as! CTLine, &ascent, &descent, &leading)
}
//This variable holds the current draw position, relative to CT origin of the bottom left
//https://stackoverflow.com/a/27631737/1166266
var drawYPositionFromOrigin:CGFloat = descent
//Again, draw the lines in reverse so we don't need look ahead
for lineIndex in (0..<lineCount).reversed() {
//Calculate the current line height so we can accurately move the position up later
let lastLinePosition = lineIndex > 0 ? lineOrigins[lineIndex - 1].y: textRect.height
let currentLineHeight = lastLinePosition - lineOrigins[lineIndex].y
//Throughout the loop below this variable will be updated to the tallest value for the current line
var maxLineHeight:CGFloat = currentLineHeight
//Grab the current run glyph. This is used for attributed string interop
let glyphRuns = CTLineGetGlyphRuns(lines[lineIndex] as! CTLine) as [AnyObject]
for run in glyphRuns {
let run = run as! CTRun
//Convert the format range to something we can match to our string
let runRange = CTRunGetStringRange(run)
let attribuetsAtPosition = attributedText.attributes(at: runRange.location, effectiveRange: nil)
var baselineAdjustment: CGFloat = 0.0
if let adjust = attribuetsAtPosition[NSAttributedStringKey.baselineOffset] as? NSNumber {
//We have a baseline offset!
baselineAdjustment = CGFloat(adjust.floatValue)
}
//Check if this glyph run is tallest, and move it if it is
maxLineHeight = max(currentLineHeight + baselineAdjustment, maxLineHeight)
//Move the draw head. Note that we're drawing from the unupdated drawYPositionFromOrigin. This is again thanks to CT cartisian plane where we draw from the bottom left of text too.
context.textPosition = CGPoint.init(x: lineOrigins[lineIndex].x, y: drawYPositionFromOrigin)
//Draw!
CTRunDraw(run, context, CFRangeMake(0, 0))
}
//Move our position because we've completed the drawing of the line which is at most `maxLineHeight`
drawYPositionFromOrigin += maxLineHeight
}
}
I also made a method which calculates the required height of the text given a width. It's exactly the same code except it doesn't draw anything.
/// Calculate the height if it were drawn using `drawText`
/// Uses the same code as drawText except it doesn't draw.
///
/// - Parameters:
/// - attributedText: The text to calculate the height of
/// - width: The constraining width
/// - estimationHeight: Optional paramater, default 30,000px. This is the container height used to layout the text. DO NOT USE CGFLOATMAX AS IT CORE TEXT CANNOT CREATE A FRAME OF THAT SIZE.
/// - Returns: The size required to fit the text
static func size(of attributedText:NSAttributedString,width:CGFloat, estimationHeight:CGFloat?=30000) -> CGSize {
let framesetter = CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString(attributedText)
let textRect = CGRect.init(x: 0, y: 0, width: width, height: estimationHeight!)
let path = CGPath(rect: textRect, transform: nil)
let frame = CTFramesetterCreateFrame(framesetter, CFRangeMake(0, 0), path, nil)

let lineCount = lines.count
//Get the line origin coordinates. These are used for calculating stock line height (w/o baseline modifications)
var lineOrigins = [CGPoint](repeating: CGPoint.zero, count: lineCount)
CTFrameGetLineOrigins(frame, CFRangeMake(0, 0), &lineOrigins);
//Since we're starting from the bottom of the container we need get our bottom offset/padding (so text isn't slammed to the bottom or cut off)
var ascent:CGFloat = 0
var descent:CGFloat = 0
var leading:CGFloat = 0
if lineCount > 0 {
CTLineGetTypographicBounds(lines.last as! CTLine, &ascent, &descent, &leading)
}

let currentLineHeight = lastLinePosition - lineOrigins[lineIndex].y
//Throughout the loop below this variable will be updated to the tallest value for the current line
var maxLineHeight:CGFloat = currentLineHeight
//Grab the current run glyph. This is used for attributed string interop

//Skip drawing since this is a height calculation
}
//Move our position because we've completed the drawing of the line which is at most `maxLineHeight`
drawYPositionFromOrigin += maxLineHeight
}
return CGSize.init(width: width, height: drawYPositionFromOrigin)
}
Like everything I write, I also did some benchmarks against some public libraries and system functions (even though they won't work here). I used a huge, complex string here to keep anyone from taking unfair shortcuts.

So summary time: we did very well! size(of...) is nearly equal to stock CT layout which means that our addon for superscript is fairly cheap despite using a hash table lookup. We do, however, flat out win on draw calls. I suspect that this is due to the very expensive 30k pixel estimation frame we have to create. If we make a better estimate performance will be better. I've already been working for about three hours so I'm calling it quits and leaving that as an exercise to the reader.
I struggled with this problem as well. It turns out, as some of the posters above suggested, that none of the fonts that come with IOS support superscripting or subscripting. My solution was to purchase and install two custom superscript and subscript fonts (They were $9.99 each and here's a link to the site http://superscriptfont.com/).
Not really that hard to do. Just add the font files as resources and add info.plist entries for "Font provided by application".
The next step was to search for the appropriate tags in my NSAttributedString, remove the tags and apply the font to the text.
Works great!
A Swift 2 twist on Dimitri's answer; effectively implements NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName.
When coding I was in a UIView so had a reasonable bounds rect to use. His answer calculated its own rect.
func drawText(context context:CGContextRef, attributedText: NSAttributedString) {
// All this CoreText iteration just to add support for superscripting.
// NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName isn't supported by CoreText. So we manully iterate through
// all the text ranges, rendering each, and offsetting the baseline where needed.
let framesetter = CTFramesetterCreateWithAttributedString(attributedText)
let textRect = CGRectOffset(bounds, 0, 0)
let path = CGPathCreateWithRect(textRect, nil)
let frame = CTFramesetterCreateFrame(framesetter, CFRangeMake(0, 0), path, nil)
// All the lines of text we'll render...
let lines = CTFrameGetLines(frame) as [AnyObject]
let lineCount = lines.count
// And their origin coordinates...
var lineOrigins = [CGPoint](count: lineCount, repeatedValue: CGPointZero)
CTFrameGetLineOrigins(frame, CFRangeMake(0, 0), &lineOrigins);
for lineIndex in 0..<lineCount {
let lineObject = lines[lineIndex]
// Each run of glyphs we'll render...
let glyphRuns = CTLineGetGlyphRuns(lineObject as! CTLine) as [AnyObject]
for r in glyphRuns {
let run = r as! CTRun
let runRange = CTRunGetStringRange(run)
// What attributes are in the NSAttributedString here? If we find NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName,
// adjust the baseline.
let attrs = attributedText.attributesAtIndex(runRange.location, effectiveRange: nil)
var baselineAdjustment: CGFloat = 0.0
if let adjust = attrs[NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName as String] as? NSNumber {
baselineAdjustment = CGFloat(adjust.floatValue)
}
CGContextSetTextPosition(context, lineOrigins[lineIndex].x, lineOrigins[lineIndex].y - 25 + baselineAdjustment)
CTRunDraw(run, context, CFRangeMake(0, 0))
}
}
}
With IOS 11, Apple introduced a new string attribute name:
kCTBaselineOffsetAttributeName which works with Core Text.
Note that the offset direction is different from NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName used with NSAttributedStrings on UILabels etc (a positive offset moves the baseline downwards).
