Changing Background color on NSAttributedString

Question

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!

Answer 1

I think you want NSBackgroundColorAttributeName. Such as:

[mutableAttributedString addAttribute:NSBackgroundColorAttributeName value:[UIColor yellowColor] range:selectedRange];

Answer 2

For swift 3.x attributedString.addAttribute(NSBackgroundColorAttributeName, value: yourColor, range: NSMakeRange(0, tillLocation))

Answer 3

最好的计划是在具有黑色背景的视图上绘制字符串。
