Draw string with chalk effect (cocoa/cocoa touch)?

Question

is there good way to draw string with chalk effect? Can I draw a transparent string over a chalk texture image?

Answer 1

For iOS:

1. Get a chalk texture image.
2. Create a colour using [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"chalkImage"]];
3. Set this as the text colour for your label or text view or whatever.

For OSX:

1. Get a chalk texture image.
2. Create a colour using [NSColor colorWithPatternImage:[NSImage imageNamed:@"chalkImage"]];
3. Set this as the text colour for your label or text view or whatever.

Answer 2

实际上，如果仅使用拉丁字母，则在MacOS和iOS中有一种叫做Chalkduster的很棒的字体。
